You’ll definitely want to hit up Kloof Street’s new hotspot this summer – Mustacchio Caffe, a coffee powerhouse and burger stop. This trendy, near-hipster restaurant stands opposite McDonald’s and is where you want to be seen from early morning breakfasts to late night drinks and dessert.
The brand, originally born in Italy, has crossed borders and made its home in the bustling Cape Town CBD. Inspired by the friendly, open street café’s overseas, Mustacchio is the kind of place you can go if you’re looking for a quiet coffee, a family lunch or a good time with a group of friends. They offer a little something for everyone, in any weather. Make a booking, simply walk in and sit down or a grab a take away for those nights at home.
The kitchen has already surprised us with some interesting menu options. Most noticeable is their signature breakfast, The Waffle Stack – a tasty start to a work day. If you need to switch off and wind down with a satisfying lunch, try their Belgian Waffle Burger. Yes, it’s as good as it sounds – served with hand-cut chips and homemade BBQ sauce. They are very service focused and the staff go the extra mile to make you smile.
If all that isn’t enough to tempt you to visit, they serve a refreshing range of Cape Town brewed craft beers. You’ll find the Woodstock Brewery Californicator IPA, Rhythm Stick English Pale Ale, Hazy Daze Belgian Witbier and Happy Pils German Pilsner all on tap and ready to tantalise your taste buds. These brews guarantee that the glass is always half full (although we’d advise completely full)! Talk of a twist and some tricks up their sleeve, Mustacchio makes a one-of-a-kind Italian mascarpone-based sweet treat: The Happy Pils Beer Tiramisu.
Don’t put it off for another day and don’t make us ask you again, have you been to Mustaccio Caffe yet? Hopefully you’ll be able to say “yes” really soon.
