3rd visit to Shift since December with the hopes of trying the Black Insomnia, unfortunately looks like Black Insomnia may be history. All the same, had an excellent cappuccino with the new "The Almighty" coffee brand. One of the best cappuccinos in town.
Great coffee shop-hip vibe-centrally located! You must visit while in Cape Town.
The best flat white in Cape Town!! Really good customer service and good breakfast too! They are centrally located, good ambience inside the cafe! Kid and pet friendly..
Such a good vibe on a Saturday morning with fun music playing and cheerful staff. The decor is so trendy! We had green tea, Americano and two croissants with Jam and Cheese. The croissants were divine but the Jam was one of the pre-packed individual servings. Would’ve been nice if they had their own Jam selection. The coffee was strong and aromatic so overall we enjoyed our breakfasts.

Thank you for the friendly and good service! :) It really made it pleasant. Beautifully decorated inside. They have a big variety of coffees, which makes me excited to go again and try something else.
The portion of the breakfast was very small, but tasted good. The croissant would’ve tasted better if it was baked in an oven, because it wasn’t crispy enough, but still good. The coffee was tasty. I would’ve liked that they had more seats outside, as we wanted to sit there.
All in all, it’s still a lovely place. I’ll be going again.
Our resident coffee spot, it’s intimate and has a staunch following of loyal regulars which isn’t surprising.
The breakfast croissant is a must and the Chilli Tea (called the Devils Hangover or something) is life changing if you are, in fact, hungover.
A good flat white, although a tad on the small side. The croissants are ok, nothing more. Service is friendly, and they're happy for you to settle in with a book without constant checking in.
Odd system where you can't tip by card, only cash. Given that people rarely carry cash these days, it means the good service can still result in no tip.

You can see from the menu that owner has Italian origins and that’s visible in their coffee.

Favourite coffee shop
I visited the shop that they have at the Waterfront so I decided to go to the other venue in Green Point. Same quality and service. Definitely one of my favourites coffee stops in town
Stayed at one of the guest rooms. Room's are nice enough, location and entrance/foyer is great. Only issue with the rooms I found was it can get a little cold in the winter, AC doesn't necessarily work all that well and the shower needs a difficult adjustment to get it to be hot without it being scalding and the water pressure is kind of mild. If these issues were fixed, wouldn't mind staying again. Probably better for summer than winter stays.
Just went to the spa. Loved it! The treatment was incredible. Felt like jelly when I left.
The light was set a bit too low in the passage towards the massage room for my taste. Maybe it was supposed to set a soothing low light tone, but it was border line pitch black.
The staff was very inviting and friendly. I would definitely go back and try some of their other treatment options.
The Cape Royal Luxury suites hosted a Mother's day breakfast for 60 beautiful ladies yesterday. The managers of the Cape Royale were waiting outside as the ladies arrived to welcome them. The feedback from the ladies were that the breakfast was amaaaazing and the staff that served them were phenomenal. Thank YOU Cape Royal Luxury suites for a job well done and providing top class service! Well done and thank you sooo much!
