Great place for a post cycle coffee. The snacks are pretty delicious and the lunches are fresh and tasty. What I like most are the ever friendly staff!
Best lunch in Cape Town, hands down. With a quad espresso.
Loved the Banting stack and freshly pressed juice (carrot, apple & ginger) that I had ordered, it was healthy yet delicious.
The prices are a bit steep, however I don't mind paying for good quality food and service.
I would definitely recommend trying this quaint cafe.
Fabulous food with a great vibe and good service. Something special in the downtown CBD area. This is a breakfast must ! Grab a friend and go x
Hi foodies, I hope you are all doing fantastic! One of the best 'food' holidays have already passed with the first quarter of the year, aka Easter and I hope you all had plenty of chocolate, pickled fish (my mom froze some for me while I was away) and hot cross buns! . I am working in the Cape Town CBD today and if you have read any of my other posts you will know how much I love the CBD. Today's eatery in particular is nestled in the quieter part of the CBD. Lekker naby die landdros hof! So obviously I am enjoying some monochrome and grey outfits (even I am dressed to fit the culture).
Food: When I saw the menu, I thought sh*& this is expensive for a brekkie! French toast was R52 and the wording read "A SLICE of french toast", again I thought hell naw. Luckily I don't get put off easily, so I went for it, and even added two poached eggs. I was so happy when my food arrived, the eggs were just there for decoration, because the toast SLICES - yup plural - were huge! On a taste scale, it was heaven on the tastebuds. I loved how the cheese and maple syrup complemented each other (see me raving about it on my IG story, here), everything just worked together. They also have a decent selection of coffee and tea, my favourite after one try is the forest berries tea leaves. The teapot gave me so many cups, probably 4 full ones, and it was only R27. Yummy.
Service: The waiters were so patient with me shame. They came to check on me every 5 minutes to see if I was ready to order, and each time I just had a glass of water (also, shot guys for bringing me tap water - most places brings patrons bottled water and charge an arm and leg). For the rest of the time I was here, they could see that I was busy and they left me to do my thing in peace. Dankie.
I support this cute little place, unique menu items and good service

I was spoilt for my birthday this year with too many cupcakes (if there is even such a thing), some of which came from Milk, Bread and Honey. My wife works in the area and decided to try some of their sweet treats for my birthday. I chose the lemon curd cupcakes - because I am obsessed with lemon curd - and was so pleasently surprised. They had a delicious meringue top with tart homemade lemon curd underneath, the cake itself was moist and overall, they were really enjoyable!
For lunch on a weekday the options are excellent, fresh and tasty, be it vegetarian or meat. I would recommend for that reason alone. However, The service is often slow and painful especially at lunch time. Also, I've had some toasted sandwiches which were not up to scratch, specifically because they were not well toasted - a rookie error. However, kudos to the manager for often being there :)
Love there consistent great service and the beautiful buffet spreads breakfast and lunch been here 6 times and adore this little restaurant. Beautiful desserts that will please any sweet tooth. Love everything about it.
Bread Milk and Honey for breakfast this morning. I've walked past a few times but decided today I would give it a whirl. First meal listed on the menu Eggs Benedict - boom done.
Ordered a cappuccino which arrived super fast. The blend is lovely and strong and doesn't need sugar. The micro foam is lovely with minimal big air bubbles. Wonderful warm start to the day.
Decor wise it's kinda got that French country Bakery vibe to it. The black and white checkered floors are everything. I feel like the place could be warmed up a bit with some variation in the lighting but overall it's a very neat crisp look and the wood accents help give it a more homey feeling.
I also like that you can purchase freshly made pastries and sandwiches at the front area which is nice if you are busy and just need to get moving.
My Benedict arrived nicely presented with a suspiciously large amount of mustard. My medium poached egg came as a single hard boiled egg which was a sad. The hollandaise is more of a mustard mayo and so much mustard it overpowers the subtle flavor of the salmon. The hollandaise needs to be relooked at in order for this to be okay. The bread was lovely, that coupled with the fresh salmon and rocket is a really nice combination.
Overall not a bad breakfast, the strongest point being the coffee and the service and the weakest point being my poached egg.
A super spot for a city breakfast! Would go back anytime! Super friendly staff and quick service! The dark hot chocolate is a must!! My friend swapped her gypsy ham for mushrooms with no hassle!
it gets quite busy here in the morning but i was able to get a table. the cafe was bustling but a very warm ambiance. i love their yoghurt with shredded apple, oats and cinnamon - it has definitely become a favourite of mine.
A great place for breakfast all day! Very friendly staff, good coffee and snacks. You can meet there for a business lunch or bring your laptop to work a little.

Ive been eating here for years and OH MY GOSH their buffet of salads are the best EVER!
Always consistent quality. Got that perfect crunch with the sweet/sour 🥗
Not the boring lettuce, cucumber type salads either. I wish they’d train me how to make them so I can have them at home too! 🤭 because they get a bit pricey for an everyday routine.
Food was good, service a bit slow. Will definitely visit again
They have HP sauce!
Great food, staff and atmosphere. Loved our breakfast here- thank you. Manager has a great sense of humor… 😊😊
Yesterday i stumbled across this place in the middle of Cape Town...What beautifil service my son and i received while having breakfast there.I had the oats and my son the lovely full breakfast...Presentation on point and everything so delicious...My coffee,made by the friendly barista Russia was the best...The staff was amazing...🤗They had so many regulars coming in i observed, and everyone was just happy to be served there...Well Done management...You have a great team👏It will not be my last...🙏
Very friendly service & cosy location, also a lot of locals come here - which is always a good sign. I've loved the eggs benedict, but smoothies & coffee were also great.
Although not halaal, we did enjoy a hot cup of latte' just to warm ourselves. Piping in by chance, most beautiful decoration that can take you back in time.
Toilet facilities nicely decorated and clean.
Friendly service.
I love the place. Tge food was very nice. I ordered BMH Beef Burger, it was delicious

Loved the coffee! Prices are reasonable however service was a bit slow so keep in mind if you are in a hurry. Will be back to try some of the other menu items.
Chai Tea was a little to intense. But the carrot cake was amazing. Food my colleagues had looked delicious 😋 good portions and great service.
