Step through their quaint doors and go back in time to when things were simpler and wholesomely delicious. Tamboerswinkel is hidden between two buildings, and although it can be easily missed when driving byย if youโve been there once youโll definitely be back for more.
Winkel is an Afrikaans word for a small shop, and this character-filled winkel is far more than what first meets the eye. The padstal-themed space is filled with delicious baked treats, fine wine and household nik naks. Youโll find just about everything you need to take with you to a dinner party.
As a firm favourite on Kloof Street, the restaurant is the go-to spot after a walk in De Waal Park, a hike up Table Mountain or a quick cycle around the neighbourhood.

They have recently revamped their space, and you canโt help but feel at home with their elegant and sophisticated design, with large wooden tables and bar stool seating by the window. If you are looking for an after dinner delight, tuck into the best chocolate brownies in the Mother City – ones that will even put your oumaโs recipe to shame.
