Current rating is of 3.2 is really not a true reflection of this establishments standards. Best milktart in the country and all other confectionary of a sublime quality
Always love limnos for tea, a treat or a toasted sandwhich. Do not like being squashed next to other people, the larger one is in Green Point. They make the cutest glitter cupcakes
This bakery looks so pretty from the outside that you can't help being drawn to it. This branch is much bigger than the Claremont branch. We like to pick up some cakes from here to take home. Love the macarons, chocolate eclairs and mini chocolate cakes.
This branch was renovated recently and has a modern feel to it. The staff is friendly. We usually just buy cakes and pastries to go.
The pecan nut tart is divine and my favorite!
Great food, very chilled an whimsical vibe. Personally recommend the Chocolate Cheesecake! Quite wide variety of products. Already a regular!
Best black forest cake in Cape Town, have to order the cake in advance to avoid disappointment, we had the milk tart with slices of cheesecake, simply delicious...
We often come to this branch for a toastie or quiche. I'm a huge fan of their spinach quiche and the service at this branch is very good in comparison to some of the others I've been to.
I used Limnos to deliver cakes to a customer of mine in Century City. I called them from my London office, ran through a very simple ordering process, made payment and the cakes were delivered with a smile within 15 minutes.Excellent service and the cakes were enjoyed by all.We will 100% be using them again!
This little shop brought a smile to my face the moment I saw it. I liked the cute pink theme and gorgeous display of all things naughty and nice. The seating is too cramped and tables too small to enjoy a meal if you’re in a bad mood, luckily I was in a very good mood and decided order their custard croissant, only to chase down the poor waitress and cancel my order for the Ham & Cheese Croissant with Tea for R45 instead. It would be a travesty to only visit this place once, there are too many tasty treats to try, hence my indecision.
The ham and cheese croissant was very delicious. The teapot was chipped so that’s not too impressive. Leanne had a simple egg and bacon breakfast special with a coffee and gave two thumbs up.
I must admit that i like to just window shop at this branch. Their display is really eye-catching. Much smaller than the other branches but that being said - the service us much better here and the cakes are always fresh and super delish!
Limnos Canal Walk is intimate but lovely! The window walking past is tempting enough but going in there is a treat in itself. I had a cappuccino cake with a warm, hug-in-a-cup cappuccino and my friend had a very generous custard slice. This little coffee shop will definitely see us again.
Decadent cakes ! Food isn't too bad either ... Fabiola flan is one of my absolute favorites. EVERYONE SHOULD try it ... Heaven!!! :-) Friendly staff too .
Popped in for a quick supper while shopping. Since it was fairly quiet, we didn't the experience the crowded tables as stated by other reviewers but I could see how that could happen when they are busy as the space is really small. We had a cheese burger and a smoked salmon wrap. My fiance's burger was was ok, not terrible but not mind blowing. My salmon wrap was really good and they didn't skimp on the salmon. I would just have it with a salad instead of chips if I ever did eat there again, the chips were a bit too oily. The prices are good for the quality of food. All in all not bad for a light meal
This is such a divine bakery and although I must admit that I won't actively go sit down for a coffee date, there are two delicious items you must try! #1 two Danishes for R15 & #2 the hazelnut cream cake! Do yourself a favor! 😊
Met up with a friend at Limnos for some brunch today. We both had the french toast which is served with bacon, cheese, honey and jam. It's conveniet if your shopping and their selection of cakes and treats all looked absolutely devine (pity that I was too full to try anything). The shop is rather small so sat very close to the people next to us that it felt like we were sharing a table, but wasn't a major issue.

I have the biggest sweet tooth and Limnos never disappoints. We popped in for a quick spot of tea and some scones and eclairs. As always the staff were chatty and friendly and the cakes fresh and delicious
Great meals and friendly staff. Store is too small though, often not enough seats and not enough waiters. Especially during lunch hour. Well worth the visit though.
Everyone goes to Limnos for their cakes and desserts but they have really great savoury options too. I had the bacon, avo and feta tramezzini, which was absolutely delicious. The cafe is very small and does feel very crowded but it's great for a quick mid shop break!

Its almost impossible not to be hooked in by the amazing window display of patisserie of Limnos Century City. Both a visual and a oral feast.
Probably one of the best places for quiches and pies and so reasonably priced.
The menu offers light meals but boasts an adequate and diverse range of choices.
An excellent choice of venue for breakfast lunch and tea.
The food is always fresh and beautifully presented and the service always good.
Being a place that I regularly frequent I can say in all honesty that the standard and quality is always high and constant.
The choices of cakes in the display unit are quite overwhelming. They all look very rich. As a cake lover I have never been drawn to ordering a slice here for this reason.
The one drawback of the place is that the tables are terribly close together. There is no privacy at all. Not ideal for business meetings or any intimate conversations. One feels as though the people at the surrounding tables are part of one's company. I find this quite invasive. As the tables are placed so close together it is understood that the design calls for high turnaround of clients.
It is certainly a place that doesn't disappoint and one that I can highly recommend.
You can never go wrong with limnos bakery. The chocolate cakes, fruit cocktail, etc undoubtedly are the signature products of limnos. However make no mistakes about other products like brownies, pies, baklavas Etc, they all are top notch. A big Thumbs Up !!!
Excellent service. Recently ordered 200 for a function and got very quick feedback and they were extremely respectful and professional.
Dealt with Prince. Would highly recommend him.
Another comment mentioned the softness, I agree that they are soft, however I feel this makes them easier (and less messy) to eat. Not to mention the flavours are incredible. They aren't overly sweet so you can have more than one and not feel like you have just eaten a bag of sugar.
They will definitely see my money again.
Some of the best macaroons I've ever had, chewy on the inside with delicious fillings. Their milkshakes are amazing too! Decadent and well worth the money spent.
If you haven't tried it I suggest you do. We've been going to yummi for years and quality has still remained the same. Variety of desserts and macarons available. The milkshakes are a must and there is coffee for those who prefer something warmer. Definitely recommend.
Edit: so sad unfortunately this branch has closed down
Really amazing service, outgoing and welcoming, oh and good coffee too . Over all an awesome experience !!!
Such a hidden treasure. Coincidentally walked past there and ended up buying amazing macarons. The people were so friendly too! My fav macaron store from now on.
I have been on a quest to find the best Macaroons...I believe my quest is complete. Great flavours, perfect texture...
Best macaroons I have ever (ever!) tasted. Enough said. (Good coffee too).
Honestly, this place makes the BEST macaroons! The chocolate brownies are simply amazing as well!
The Macaroons are out of this world ...... # Best Eva...........
Great brownies and coffee! Will definitely go back.
Best selection of beautiful confectionery!
Nice place to sit down have a coffee
