My sister's bachelorette at Beefcakes Seapoint was a lively and entertaining experience, but there were a few aspects that left room for improvement.
The staff's accommodation of our last-minute reservation, including two extra people than what they had space for, was commendable. We truly appreciated their flexibility, setting the stage for a memorable evening.
Miss Kitty added to the fun atmosphere with her performance, although we couldn't help but feel a bit put off by the constant solicitation for tips throughout the evening. It makes it awkward, especially when it's made known that expected tips are R100's and R200's on-top of what one would normally tip for service. It's kind of tacky. Considering the ticket cost, it would be preferable to pay a bit more for the ticket (Say ~R500) and ensure the performers are fairly compensated without the need for continuous tip requests.
The ticket price of R400 for the Diva Package, which covered the show, a burger, and a cocktail, is very reasonable. The burgers were delicious, and the little bowls of toppings are a good idea and everything was yummy. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for the cocktails, including the additional ones we ordered, as they were disappointingly light on alcohol.
The limited selection, absence of normal ciders, and unavailability of frozen and on-tap cocktails were drawbacks. While the cocktail prices were reasonable, the lack of potency left us wanting more.
Despite these 2 drawbacks, the overall experience was enjoyable, thanks to good food, entertaining performances, and accommodating service. Will I be back? Yes, with hopes for an even better experience.

Awesome experience đ đ especially if your having a birthday etc.... show drinks and awesome friendly waiters... it's not about the taking shirts off etc but the whole entire cool vibe. You guys should definitely get a bigger spot.
I'm glad my colleague had an awesome retirement fairwell!

I had a fantastic time at Beefcakes! The ambiance is wonderfully cozy, and the staff couldn't have been more welcoming. I thoroughly enjoyed the entertaining show as well.

Beefcakes was a awesome experience. Love the energy of the performance. The burgers was also very good. Will definitely go back for another show.

I think the misconception about this place is that itâs a chance to ogle shirtless, buff waiters. But, the star of the show is undoubtedly the hostess, Miss Kitty De La Renza, who put on an enthralling performance with dazzling costume changes, wig changes, hilarious exchanges with patrons and dance moves that could rival BeyoncĂŠâs. Burgers and chilli poppers were actually quite good. Frozen mojitos too. Body shots are also available for those who want to be a little naughty. Manager is super helpful and friendly, even asking a shirtless waiter to escort us to our Uber during an icy Friday evening. Will return to see the other drag acts. And for the chilli poppers too!

Best venue to perform in.. under new management. Top class shows and delish burgers. They have totally captured the 50s American Dinner feel. ENJOY

Visiting Beef Cakes (Cape Town) is always a phenomenal experience. You are greeted by a warm welcome before youâve even stepped through the door. A strict Covid protocol is followed as you enter and from there onwards itâs all about leaving your worries at the door and all letting your hair down.
A vivacious host will seat you and introduce you to your âbeef cakeâ (waiter) for the night. You can expect nothing but the friendliest and most attentive gentlemen serving you for the evening with a smile on their face. You wonât feel more taken care of anywhere else. The show is always professionally tailored to keep you laughing, singing along and having an absolute blast. Expect to see glitzy costume changes, impressive choreography and pure passion for Drag Queen artistry.
Beef cakes Cape Town is truly run well by the team of staff and the manager who put their all into ensuring that you are having a good time. I also have to compliment these gentlemen on ensuring the safety of their guests when leaving. The city has unfortunately become a risky place to enjoy a night out which always makes leaving an establishment a little nerve wrecking but the staff will always ensure that you are safe whilst waiting for your uber/ride â which is really such an impressive and comforting attribute to have.
I love Beef Cakes and would recommend it to absolutely everyone!

I loved the hell out of this place. Called and made a reservation. Got the best seat in the house. The manager was so welcoming to me. My waiter made my night and me laugh my ass off. The staff were polite and entertaining. The show feature to phenomenal divas who were just freaking fabulous. The venue was classy, affordable, character down to the finest detail and the food was to die for. #AmazingPeople #BeautifulPlaces #IncredibleMemories #CantWaitToReturn

Literally the best night out Iâve had in Cape Town has started at this venue! Honestly amazing show with hilarious drag shows and the best food and such good value for money! The staff are absolutely lovely and so welcoming not to mention the waitors are very easy on the eye! Will definitely be back again with my colleagues for a fun filled night! Would highly recommend!! Keep up the amazing work guys xx
Alex Huggins
A bit disappointed with this venue. There were two drag acts that mimed their songs, and not very well at that. The 'comedy' act wasn't funny at all.
The only good thing about this place was the food. I had the chicken burger which was actually quite nice.
I had to ask three times for water to be brought to the table and a few members of our group didn't receive their second drink order.
Not worth the money in my opinion. Sorry guys.
Sasha Marina Roman
I highly recommend it, the food was divine, o was most impressed by the friendly staff - they really made the night a pleasant experience and i will be making beefcakes a regular hang out spot

Had an absolute ball of a time. Welcomed with open arms. Music & food 100%. Waiters 200%. Drag Queen show 300%. The best place ever to have a Batchelorette.
Nelisa Nkosi Immanuel

Last night was the first time in a long time that we have been to Beefcakes, decided to bring a friend from London. It seems that not much has changed from last we were there. Food is still same quality and you get it fast...What has changed is that a 10% service fee is now added and waiters expect that you have to pay the amount as indicated. I don't min paying it if I received great service, but the service was not that great.
And then for a waiter to roll his eyes at me and mumble when I give him the R1.70 that was "short" on the bill... NOT ON.
O wait...that's the reason I stopped coming, waiters with attitude.
Pity, I actually enjoyed it. Our friend said he will not be making an effort to come back or recommend, neither will I.

We had the best time last night. Thank you Beefcakes and staff , our waiter Ruan, for making my sisters bachelorette memorable and lots of fun
Neville A. Prinsloo
Had a great night with our friends from the DA. Great entertainment and awesome food. The waiters are friendly, but could use ALOT more training. My coffee was brought to me stone cold without a saucer or a spoon and the wine was opened haphazardly. Other than that a great night.
Yvonne Nicholson

Nice environment, music and decoration. Waiters are very gentle and kind. I went to beefcakes two times and both times it closed before the time referred on their website. On their website says it closes at 12 am and when it's 10 pm there is not music anymore, waiters start organizing the chairs and tables to close and you kinda feel that they all want you to leave.
Samantha Shosha
Had the best tym Eva!Manager was so welcoming,staff,sexy as f#k,nd made u feel so comfortable!Food was delicious!Show was a blast!Thank u Beefcakes for absolute stunning nyt!
Juliane Santinello
I went to the place alone, I asked for a table and they informed that it was all reserved, after a while the manager came and took me to a table, then he asked me to leave and go to the bar, I went there waiting for the show, the waiter took me to the table again, after a few moments the manager asked me to leave because I was alone and there was a group of girls that would sit. DISRESPECT!!!
Michelle Hayward
Tonight's show was awesome. Loved it!! Great food and even better Drag queens... And those dance moves���
Garth Andrew Garnham
Very cramped surroundings! We were first asked to sit at a high table with metal bar stools!!! For 3 hours not on??? Luckily we were able to swop to another cramped corner! Chicken burger very plain & served Luke warm! Could have been cooked earlier in bulk & left to lie around??? Starter cost R160 for a minute amount of battered onions, nachos & 3 jelopenos!!! Drink prices exorbitant!!! Service very good & show was enjoyable if not a bit short! Won't visit again!!!
