Hidden Gem, a must in Cape Town!!! You can not walk past the store without being drawn in by the sweet essence that starts exciting your senses and you find saying to yourself --- ok its treat day!!!! The best treat you can give yourself is a date with Jessys waffles!!! This store reminds me of those secret finds you get in Europe or London and now we have our very own little magical treat shop in Cape Town. Waffles are yummy, staff are friendly and Jessy just puts love into the place �� A must on your treat me day!!

So this weekend I had this amazing waffle from jessyswaffles and let me tell you, best waffle I have ever had. Now, this is vegan friendly and gluten free. I am not a vegan, times I go to vegan places and I'm a bit disappointed in the taste but more in the price and quantity (I don't like paying for cute food if it doesn't fill me). jessyswaffles did not disappoint at all, this waffle comes with ice cream (vegan friendly) but it was still churning, to which I got awesome coconut cream as a replacement. Half way through there was a hum in tum, that means my tummy was happy and full. And then I got complimentary ice cream. Talk about value for money, no commercializing veganism and marketing it to make profit here, but rather just making awesome tasty nom nom goodness. I shall be back soon. #vegan #waffle #berries

If you’re a vegan or non-vegan with a sweet-tooth then Jessy’s is heaven on earth!!!

I give an A++ to their waffles - you can build your own and I’ve loved every single one I’ve eaten, which have been many. You must have the hazelnut sauce if you love chocolate because it tastes just like Nutella.

Their flapjacks are yummy too, however they have a slight spiciness to them which I find unusual.

The reason I haven’t given Jessy’s 5 stars is because their service, although friendly, needs to be more attentive and I hope to one day see an improvement in their decor.

Otherwise, I’m an enthusiastic fan of this vegan gem😃

Jessys waffles was truly an interesting experience and pleasant surprise! Everything is VEGAN! Not only do they do vegan savory cheesy waffles but they do beautiful rich fruity chocolate sweet waffles too and I just couldn’t decide what I wanted so had a bit of both and was pleasantly surprised with this beautiful sunny little cafe in gardens

Friendly and helpful service as well as exceptional waffles 👌 Would highly recommend this restaurant to both vegans and non-vegans! The one waffle I personally made and the other is one of their savory waffles with avo, vegan cheese, homemade beetroot hummus and tomato 😍

The restaurant is quaint, cute, and comfy. The staff are friendly and willing to answers all and any questions. The food is delicious! From sweet waffles, savory flapjacks, and ice cream sundaes; everything is tasty and satisfying.

Amazing little waffle/flapjack Cafe. We had the captain if I am not mistaken. We also ordered a extra side of mixed berries on top for an additional R14 which is so worth it. The ingredients taste wholesome and of quality. A full portion was more then enough to share between the both of us. I also tried my first activated charcoal latte, I would say if u like a less of a sweet latte notify them in advance not to put too much syrup in. I did find mine a pit too sweet(nector).

Will be back.
A must for the dairy free folks out there. Great naughty breakfast.

I really liked their waffles. Friend built her own choc chip waffle with strawberries and coconut cream. It was really balanced (not too sweet). I had a savory one and it was so nice! With guacamole, salsa and toasted coconut flakes on top. I was so full I skipped lunch and dinner that day 😮

What I like: this is a vegetarian/vegan spot so it is great for those who are allergic or just picky.
What I dislike: the place is tiny and they don’t have a lot of tables at all. They had just renovated but I was like ... “where’s the renovation?”

To drink: I had the activated charcoal latte. Basically tasted the same as a normal latte. Just more expensive.

I have been dying to try Jessys for ages and I was definitely not disappointed. The space is a bit small and the wait a bit long but the waffles make it worth it. The texture was perfect and the sweetness is balanced by the ice cream. I can’t wait to try the different ones on the menu.

I met my fellow vegan friends in this little eatery. I can tell you that my first experience in Jessy’s waffles was wonderful. The service was lovely, the ambience, music and the waffles of course! The menu is amazing. It was so difficult to choose. Definitely going next time and choosing from the savoury section. I saw someone ordered a waffle with guacamole and I can’t stop thinking about it.

This is a really cute and quaint spot within the CBD,which makes delicious vegan and gluten free desserts.I ordered the sweet captain waffle which was toppled with hazelnut sauce and chocolate chips, the base was light and fluffy...loved it, however the ice cream on the side tasted more like sorbet which I didn’t quite like.The decor of the cafe is pretty cool as well, the service was average and wasn’t as attentive as I’d hoped. My overall experience was pleasant though and I would definitely visit again..

I’ve heard only good things about this plant-based waffle spot so was excited to try it. I ordered the La Gringa 2.0 and my waiter suggested I add vegan cheese to the base of my savoury waffle -best decision ever. It’s gluten-free and has black beans, guacamole, corn, salsa and spicy mayo. It was beyond delicious. I don’t know how I’m going to order anything else off the menu now. Highly recommended. Excellent service. Chilled vibe. Sit outside!

Delicious vegan, gluten free waffles and flap jacks with dairy free toppings available. They went out of their way to ensure my chocolate sauce was free of nuts after I told them I have a nut allergy. The half portions were pretty filling. I will be back to try more off the menu!

They didn't have decaf coffee, so I ended up ordering a chai latte which was really delicious. My first choice of pancakes was also out of stock, but my backup choice didn't disappoint. The waffles also look and taste incredible. You must go there whether you're vegan or not.

The turmeric & ginger and beetroot lattes were exceptional! We shared a banana and maple syrup flapjack stack which was super tasty but way to rich for our liking. The waffles looked amazing amazing! (Yes we were eyeing everyone else's food.) The lattes were quick to arrive but the food took quite a while. Not a bad thing. Quality takes time. The service was quite impersonal which dampened the experience for us. Also a peak into the kitchen while paying revealed quite a mess. On a busy weekend I'd understand, but lunchtime Friday when it wasn't that busy? Definitely given it a try though. It's a wonderfully unique experience plus it's plant-based. :)

An absolute treat! A cosy little spot with a lot of character! The ingredients are sustainably sourced & you have vegan & gluten free options. A savoury section of waffles is available soon so be sure to check them out! Hands down the best waffles I've ever had!

2nd time visiting here and I can honestly say that it's a massive improvement on taste, flavours and combinations. And a huge plus that portions are huge. We shared a full portion of the savoury courgette waffle with vegan cheese, beer or hummus and avo. The of course we had dessert in the form ofa half portion Queen of Hearts, a sweet waffle topped with Berry compote and blueberries. Overall a great experience. Service could be a tad more attentive.

Probably the best waffles in Cape Town. Great toppings, and the cheesy bases for the savoury waffles are particularly revolutionary - and delicious. The prices are reasonable. The waffles are very filling, so consider a half portion. They're best eaten fresh - they're not as good when kept for later. Waiting staff are always friendly, and service was good two out of the three times I've been there. Once, when very busy, our order was forgotten; the waiters were very apologetic and solved the problem. No designated parking, but it's usually fairly easy to find parking nearby. They're in a relaxed part of Gardens, so consider walking if you're nearby.

What a joy! Vegan and gluten free waffles! Served in half or full portion. Coffee also served with soya milk or almond milk. Vegan ice cream van be added as an extra in vanilla and chocolate flavours. Quaint little seating area and the spot is opposite Dunkley Square. They are on a mission to ensure they reuse and recycle accordingly.

Yummy vegan friendly waffles and flapjacks. Dairy free alternatives as well. I would suggest calling first as there is a long wait, especially on holidays. You can have a take away if you're not willing to wait.

Lovely discovery thanks to the Entertainer! Our waffles were delicious & filling. Cute courtyard atmosphere & the cafe is dog friendly as an added bonus. We will definitely be back & are very happy to have experienced the happiness that is Jessy's Waffles.
