Rock pool is the perfect place to go on a summers day! Have been a couple of times and the food is always consistently good, and reasonable for the portion size and quality. Their salads, pizza, tapas and burgers are good. The service could be better but it’s proven to always be a good place to go when in the area.

What a great place. The service was wonderful – the hostess was welcoming and our waitress was super friendly and attentive (something you don’t see that often).

The restaurant had a very relaxed and laid-back vibe, but you can dress up if you want to and you’ll still fit in.

I had the home-made ice tea and it was so nice and refreshing. Their gin cocktails are the perfect drink to enjoy whilst looking out over the bay and they look marvellous. Our one friend had the chicken strips and chips and she said it was very tasty (and it looked great too).

I’d say RockPool is the perfect spot to unwind after a long day, or to catch up with old friends over a few gins and tasty ice teas. Will be back for lunch soon ;)

First time! Will definitely be going back! Just had a quick cocktail, the long island ice tea (R75) a bit pricey but was a big glass with a well prepared drink. Would love to taste their food soon! Love the fact that they use eco-friendly paper straws

Last night I decided to come back to RockPool after a good year of not coming here. I was so happy to see that nothing has changed. The food is still fresh and good quality. The vibe is great. And the waiter was so attentive. A great place for Friday night dinner and vibes.

Had some burgers with my colleagues here. The food was alright, the service great and the general feel of the place was quite vibey. The outside section also looks onto the promenade although we were unlucky enough to be there when there was renovation in progress :(

Visited this cozy little nook again, and once again a lovely experience! This was our 3rd time here. Service is friendly, atmosphere always vibrant, and food and drinks are very good. Will definitely return.

Lovely spot in the heart of sea point with a great view of the ocean. The food and service I would say was airing on the average side with very little enthusiasm from the staff.

Came here with friends from overseas. They absolutely loved the vibe and were in the mood for seafood. Food and drinks did take a while but was really good. Portions are not huge. The calamari and chips were beautiful and full of crunchy batter. Will definitely be back out of festive season.

I always enjoy this place, it's always vibey and busy whenever I'm there. Always have the pizza, most certainly one of the best pizzas around Cape Town and Joburg, even pizza in Italy doesn't really compare :)

What a great vibe! Great spot for summer. We really enjoyed our food, and they have a large variety of yummy cocktails. I did, however, struggle to justify paying R30 for a bottle of tap water, which tasted horrible.

Best homemade ice tea I've ever had, and amazing breakfast! Great place to sit and look at the view (in my case, the Cape Town Marathon😄).

Breakfast was really good, with reasonable prices and generous portions. We had a lovely waitress serve us. The only instance where we felt we might have waited too long was when we had to pay. This is a lovely spot on the beach road of Sea Point, with views of the promenade. If you're lucky, you'll be able to watch the paragliders land across the street. Really chilled atmosphere with a 80s / 90s playlist.

Very pleasantly surprised by how good the salads were! Roasted veg salad is excellent, as is the quinoa salad. Services could've been better but the place was packed - would definitely visit again, but on a weekday when it's less noisy.

It’s always a good idea to come to Rockpool, chilled vibes and great food, not to Mention affordable prices!! I always eat the same thing, chicken strips with fries!! Good portion and very delicious!! And they have a great a selection of wines too.

Breakfast / brunch: The food was all DELICIOUS! We were rather disappointed the croissants sold out by about 10:30am, but did manage to get one before this which was so good 🤤🥐 The waitress was very attentive, and warned us before we ordered that the food would take a while (I appreciated the honesty). It was surprising the food was slow to arrive as the restaurant wasn’t particularly full. Lovely setting - we saw a whale in the sea from our table! 🐳 A good meal and I look forward to the next visit.

I cannot rave enough about my experience. It was my 30th birthday yesterday and first time at Rockpool where I decided to have my birthday dinner with my closest friends. The food was SO good. Pizza is the yummiest I've tasted so far (and I've had a lot of pizza from all over Cape Town). Well done to the service though. The drinks came out within minutes of ordering. My party guests were well looked after by a wonderful waitress named Noma. She looked after my friends and I as she could tell it was a big deal for me for my night to be smooth. The food didn't take long, was tasty and the vibe was just right. Honestly well done to her and rest of the staff here. Thanks to Dewald as well for ensuring that my tables were booked and for the right amount of people. Overall experience is a definite 10/10. Will definitely be returning.

Had a pleasant time here. I don't know what to say was the most 5/10 place I've been to. If generic sea food restaurant was a thing I'd be this place, everything you except it to be The price you expect The waiters you'd expect it was very middling Which is not to say bad but it lacks anything interesting or orginal going on. Doesn't even have that classic sea side view that most sea food places aim for

Really awesome spot. Great friendly staff. Dog friendly. Pleasant view across the road which is a bit noisy and you get the odd exhaust fumes.
