Great food, great music, great cocktails and shooters, what else? :) one of the best place I've ever been in my life !
Good food, drinks and music,I love the place but too much teenagers hangout there and it gets too crowded at night...
Evrytngs amaizng thr love the food,drinks,music vibe ect just love tht place
Excellent food and service. My only concern was that there was no seperation between the smoking and non-smoking area.
We had the best opening of 2014 at Cubana. It was epic. We occupied the VIP and left the club when sun was shining bright outside...thats what we call FUN at Cubana. Cubana you Rock!!!!
Such friendly staff and a great vibe✨ with amazing food! My favourite place 😻 everything is fresh,delicious, they have vegan options,gluten free options and a big veriety!
I think all Nü's are great if you are craving something healthy for breakfast or a smoothie. Their juices are also amazing and fresh. This Nü is great to go to on any sunny morning with Green Points busy streets.
Food is lovely, fresh and full of flavour. A brilliant place for a quick smoothie and go. If you want healthy meal you won't be disappointed but however the prices are rather expensive.
Had my very first smoothie at Nu after a hike up lions head this Sunday! I had the sugar free peanut butter one with blueberries, almond milk banana and dates! It's not on the current menu, but I highly recommend it, it was so tasty and filling! I love the modern and simple vibe of the cafe and the service was really quick!
Healthy food right at your fingertips! Loved sitting outside this Nu with a hot cuppacino and avo on toast. The Greenpoint Nu is the perfect stop after a morning jog on the promenade.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Tiga Bowl I had at Nu and it was surprising filling. I will definitely be back to try out more of their items on their menu. The only downfall of Nü is their service, it is very hot and cold. What I mean by that is at times the staff seem very uninterested in you as a patron and at other moments they are friendly and helpful.
Stopped by during the Cape Town Carnival, the place was packed but they still managed to provide quick and friendly service.
I ordered the Sanei Wrap and it was really good and very light.
Great food, great concept, adorable decor, fast service!!!! Came here 4x Times in a row. Would
Recommend to anyone that wants to eat clean...
What a great spot for healthy meals! I love their green juices (especially the Kale Ale). I had the smashed avo and poached eggs on toast which had a chilli type sauce on the side which was great and not too hot. Their wraps are also great. The decor also lends itself to feeling more than a "fast-food" restaurant even though you are required to order at the counter. The coffee was also very enjoyable.
If you are a health nut, well then look no further than NÜ!
Favourite breakfast spot after a parkrun, esp in summer when we get to indulge in their refreshing smoothie bowls and when winter hits it's a warm LSA or quinoa porridge bowl!
Even the "cheat" meals are great like their protein pancakes!
I'll always keep coming back for more as they never disappoint and occasionally surprise u with new additions to the menu that never fail to disappoint!
We had the berry protein pancakes with shaved almonds, strawberry yoghurt and a sprig of mint. It was light yet filling, but left a slight artificial strawberry flavour in the mouth. Staff were friendly. Decor is simple and modern. Will be back for a healthy meal
I had some breakfast with friends at Nu after the Gun Run. I ordered a fresh juice and the poached eggs on about toast.
Overall it was good, I wasn't really in the mood for a healthy breakfast but it was good never the less.
Service was decent despite how busy they were and the food didn't take too long.
Nü is a great and healthy alternative to any other restaurant out there. My favorite items on the menu include the nutter smoothie, the kale and avo open omelette, the Nü green salad bowl and the hot lozenger. I would rate the quality and variety of food a 5 however the prices are just too high
An excellent go-to for us fitness buffs! The smoothies are mostly yum - I'm not big on the Nutter but the Refresh and Tropical spice ooooh😍😍😍 also the berries smoothie bowl!! The salads are good, but some of the dressings aren't the greatest, you just need to try a bit to find out your favourite I guess, good luck!
Had the 'health nut smoothie bowl' (my first time ordering a smoothie bowl might I add) & it was delicious!!! I was skeptical about whether or not it would fill me up but I couldn't even finish the smoothie (& I have a big appetite so that says something). Great, freshly prepared food & friendly staff and an overall great spot for a healthy bite!
This is the best place to find a delicious fresh lunch that's quick and affordable. I Love the powerhouse salad which is full of crispy things like beetroot, selery, raw mais, sprouts, avo, feta etc. I don't even need to add protein. It is perfect as it is. Go here at least 3x per week to get my healthy fix
Stopped for smoothies, really great I had The Boss smoothie highly recommend!! I will definitely be back for their wraps and bowls looked so yummy!!
The LSA porridge at NU I find far more richer. It definitely keeps you fuller for longer. I think one could add in a bit more of a variety of nuts on top of the porridge.
Nice Nü spot I had not been to yet. Popped in for lunch with my brother and we split 2 wraps so I got to try both. We added protein to both, chicken. We had the Sanei which had greens, peppadews, avo, cucumber, green beans, basil, rosa tomatoes, cashews, pea shoots, lemon and an olive oil dressing. My other half was the Alpha which had greens, feta, avo, walnuts, green beans, cranberries, pea shoots, sweet glaze and olive oil. This was my favourite out of the two. It's was my first time so I can't wait to get back and try more of their menu. I am a fan of Osumo and this seems similar to me. I really enjoyed the decor. Modern, fresh and clean. Great lunch all in all :) I'll definitely be back...
Reason for 4,5 and not a 5 is because they are a bit overpriced. The tuna cakes are really great for close to R90 for 2 cakes, but great alternative for healthy eating. The shakes are good, nice selection of juices, wraps and salads. Friendly service. Good spot to grab a bit!e!

Great little spot to grab a fresh & delicious juice or smoothie on the go. I phoned my order ahead and waited only minutes for my juice after arriving 10 minutes later. Nü has a Great atmosphere, attracting the active and energized Captonians who seem to enjoy their post-exercise breakfasts & juice boosters on the vibey Greenpoint sidewalk (as well as some free wifi). There is no doubt that Nü is a local favourite, attracting cyclists, gym bunnies and business men and women from all over- a clear indication of the quality service and overall product offered.
My Rainforest Power Juice was awesome! Super fresh with lots of natural fruity flavours!
Looking forward to trying their variety of flavours as well as their breakfast options!
I frequent Nu often, because it is the perfect mix of health and delciousness! Stopping for breakfast here, or just grabbing a smoothie on the go.
My new favourite is the berry protein flapjack, which comes with a frozen yoghurt pot, so good! The good ol standars vanilla oats is always a winner and fill you up well. Amy Bellinger tried the banana bread, and the peanut butter it comes with is the purest, creamiest pot of goodness you'll taste!
The greenpoint branch is one of my faves - the ladies are always so helpful and efficient, and there's always a nice vibe.
The kale ale is quite good, doesn't taste too greeny. I loveeeeeee the fish cakes! It served with a very tasty sauce (not sure if it's oyster/fish or sesame). I also had the banana bread- gluten and sugar free, but so good!
"Cheat day" at Nu is great as one is still eating and drinking healthy options! Loved my Glo fresh juice and absolutely LOVED the protein sugar and gluten free blueberry pancake. Such a treat.
The juices and smoothie bowls are delicious! The salads are great too, just maybe ask for the dressing on the side. The avocado toast with eggs was ok, but the eggs were overcooked and cold. Overall, I love this spot. I've gone here almost everyday since I arrived in Cape Town.
I am a frequent visitor of Nu specifically for their protein pancakes, I have the gluten free option and it is imperative that you have with the always refreshing frozen yoghurt.
The combination of the warm blueberries inside the pancake and the cold yoghurt really brings something special to the party.
@Nu waterfall Park , get your act together , you got a lot to learn about making the protein pancakes
First time at Nu and I was really suprised by the friendly staff and the delicious food. A friendly lady called Buyiswa assisted me. I ordered an open Omelette with Salmon. This was served with avo, toasted sesame seeds, pea shoots, lemon and olive dressing and a slice of Rye toast....simply delicious. Thank you Nu.
A burst of colour and freshness and the perfect healthy pick me up! Amazing smoothies/ juices and great coffee, imported natural frozen yogurt from italy (low sugar + low fat) and beautiful healthy breakfasts, salads and wraps... - always served with a huge smile. My go-to restaurant in Greenpoint & Seapoint
Nu definitely set the standard for healthy food. The most diverse menu which a lot of thought has gone into, the nicest staff and the tastiest health food. This is my number one choice in town, and the stores are really cool looking as a bonus. The Restorer salad was rad.
I stopped off at Nu after a morning run and it was super busy. We ordered some juice which took quite a while but was worth the wait. The cashew and coconut juice was more like a smoothie due to the texture and was absolutely delicious. I am keen to try out their amazing looking salads.
Definitely a great place for a weekend post-workout meal. My favourite option is the protein flapjack..its mouthwateringly amazing. Filled with blueberries topped with sliced banana and drizzled wih honey. Some may say it is decievingly indulgent. I was pleasantly surprised when i popped in today, a twist on the trustee protein flapjack with the addition of summer berries and accompanied by frozen yoghurt. DELISH! But there are many other healthy options and a great selection of smoothies and fresh juices. Be sure to add supergreen powder to them for an extra benefit. This place puts Kauai to shame if I were to compare!
I am a student in Cape Town, and when my parents come to visit me from Pretoria, I try to find the best breakfast spots. Nu was one of my choices, because we try to eat very healthy. We were not disappointed! We had the open omelettes with avocado and salmon, and they were not stingy at all! The food was incredibly fresh too and we had a lovely waitress. The clean, wooden benches and airy ambiance creates a feeling that matched the quality of the food very well.
I can recommend this to anyone who would love a good, quality meal!
I am personally obsessed with smoothie bowls and smoothies which is one of my favourite healthy lifestyle breakfast I have and Nü have such an awesome selection with the staff being so friendly and nice. They even have free lemon and orange water at the counter it's amazing.
After a run on the promenade Nu is usually our next stop. Dating a health nut has taught me to love my greens and seeds😉 don't get me wrong I do love a healthy meal especially when it's prepared by one of the favs ie. Nu, so usually I order the Sesame Salmon on Rye with a Coffee Union smoothie. They are both divine, it took me awhile to order salmon for breakfast instead of bacon but it has been a smart choice. The presentation of the food is great and so is the service and vibe.
Nu is by far my favourite new place in the city! Such beautiful flavours and combinations! Big ups that 90% of the menu is vegetarian ♡ I can't wait to try the rest of the menu! Amazing decor, amazing venue, amazing food!
Believe it - vegetarian food can be delicious. Also note that chicken can be added to the already tasty vegetarian dishes. Service was prompt, the food fresh, and I will be glad to go back. The juice, however, was surprisingly tart, considering that mango was the first listed ingredient. Maybe I'm the sort that prefers a little added sugar - still, it was refreshing, and a meal that left me FEELING healthy as I carried on with my day.
The juices are absolutely delicious and staff so lovely and friendly. The quinoa salads are definitely the way to go. Heaps of gluten free/ sugar free options which is awesome. I had the breakfast salad which sounded amazing but in reality was a bit tired. The sweet glaze was too sweet for the amount of salad & the moulded poached eggs didn't help aesthetically. Will definitely go back to try something else though!
I'm not a huge fan of froyo as I find it too sour. The froyo at Nu Food is anything but. It taste just like yoghurt and with a variety of toppings to choose from which makes it even better. It's healthy and tasty!
Such a lovely surprise. I popped in today after doing my hair and I thought it was such a cute place with really tasty food. Had those flapjack things and a rooibos smoothie. It was delicious
Definitely my favourite spot in CT. Absolutely love their honest health concept. The protein flapjack is too delicious and the smoothies and salads have the most interesting and nourishing combinations of ingredients. Love that they seasonally change up their menu too.
Excellent, Kauai-on-(natural)-steroids food and smoothie joint. Ingredients are fresh and superb. Had a phenomenal smoothie (The Nutter). Not my cuisine of choice, but absolutely worth the price tag and deserving of their reputation.
I am gluten intolerant and try to avoid sugar so I struggle to find places that accommodate this. Nu is fantastic! The food is delicious, meets all my dietary requirements and is reasonably priced. I just wish there was one Claremont side - hopefully we'll see more branches opening soon :)
Nu smoothie is always exactly what I feel like after a nice run. It is filling, fresh and health and not to mention - wonderfully tasty. The staff are very friendly and service is quick. I have eyed out a couple of other super looking dishes coming out the kitchen so I certainly need to go back. Great spot for a nice healthy meal at good prices as well.
Favourites:
1. Vanilla Chai with added Blueberries Smoothie
2. Power Green juice - kale, spinach, ginger etc...amazing!

Great concept and large variety of healthy dishes. Their winter warmer dishes are filling and delicious - carrot and almond butter soup was our favourite! The Warm-Me Bowl was filling and satisfying! All the smoothies are really good! It's a great spot for a quick meal on the go, but sometimes can get quite busy. A little on the pricey side too. Oh, and their protein flapjacks are amazing!
When I tried out this place I thought it was fantastic and if I had reviewed it there and then I would have given it 5 stars BUT in retrospect that's not really the case. I ordered a Whey Protein Flapjack, scrambled eggs and the Carrot Celery Juice. The food was very average in all honesty. I mean at a 102 Rand you do expect fireworks but nothing such. It was OK food. I'm sure if i try something else I'll be happier with the overall quality but that's going to have to wait till the next time I'm in Cape Town 😊
Really delicious healthy food. A bit pricey but mostly worth it. I do think that some of the smoothies are overpriced though. Overall an awesome spot. The blueberry whey protein flapjacks are my favourite.
Love Nu! Always so hard choosing something off their huge menu! So many delicious options. The staff are really friendly and service relatively quick! LSA bowl is perfect for brekkie on a cold Cape Town day!
Don't add hemp seed powder to a smoothie that doesn't have it. R18 extra! Otherwise, tasty smoothies. Is it just me or is R50 for a smoothie a little steep? I don't mean to harp on about price but really Cape Town, when did this become OK?
Wish this place exsisted in Pretoria. Great coffee and their protein flapjack was delish. I've also heard great things about their smoothies and frozen yoghurt.
Need to say more? My always to-go place because I know I can always count on them. Long trading hours, easy parking and lovely & chilling vibe! Food? Never disappointed. Drinks, more than enough to select from. Staff, friendly and efficient. Clean, bright, comfortable, good quality place and customers. Keep up the good work!
Less impressive than the Sea Point branch, most definitely. My wrap came very badly assembled and fell apart as I tried to eat it.y server was sullen at best and tries to swindle me of R100, giving back incorrect change.
I love Nü! Their selection of smoothies are great and my go to for a healthy breakfast on the run. Nine out of ten times I have the Urth.
My go to salad is the Hearti - butternut, ricotta and an onion relish. Fresh and delicious. All mains can be ordered with eggs, chicken or fish. Salads can also be upgraded to a low gi wrap. Nü has lots of food options for vegetarians, vegans and raw foodies and you can also choose milk alternatives for your drinks - soya or lactose free milk.
What I love about this local favorite is that I know whatever I'm eating I'll be feeding my body with nutritional goodness. Nü proves that healthy food can be delicious and doesn't have to be boring. (Why aren't their more places like this in Cape Town?) The service is always wonderful and friendly. They also have a seasonal specials menu for winter that's looking delicious.
Who said healthy, wholesome food couldn't taste great?! You always leave feeling satisfied and full without the guilt! Their smoothies and juices are bursting with flavour and goodness. You'll leave feeling like you're invincible to any form of sickness after the multitude of vitamins you've just consumed.
A health nuts dream and just what Cape Town needed. Everything from their salads, to their wraps, to their smoothies and now infamous protein pancakes with walnuts and blueberries are delicious. They have just launched a new winter menu so be sure to check it out. Pricey but well worth it.
The menu is pretty extensive and delicious – but perhaps, best of all – you know anything you order will be good for you. We both ordered smoothies – I had The Skinny (talk about friggin’ wishful thinking) – a functional blend of mango, apple, cucumber, 500mg L-Carnitine, which apparently “Improves lean muscle mass, boosts cellular energy and assists in healthy fat loss and brain functioning” while Luke had the Power Source – banana, goji berries, chia seeds, natural vanilla whey protein, purified water. Both were fantastic – thick and tasty. Mine was originally quite ‘tart’ to start, but I quickly loved the taste.
Food was a little tricky – there were so many tempting options (it’s amazing how much more you want to eat, when you know it’s all good for you). I eventually decided on the Sesame Salmon on Rye – Smoked Norwegian salmon, toasted sesame seeds, ricotta, cucumber, avo, pea shoots, lemon and olive oil dressing. It was a generous, delicious portion – perfected by a grind of salt and squeeze of lemon. I finished it quickly and greedily.
I only wish they'd open a store in the 'burbs - I'd be there every weekend!
Went there for the first time this morning! And I have come back already this afternoon. Yummy!! Will be going back atleast once a week. 👍
I decided to try something crazy on the menu at Nu today and it totally paid off. The rooibos quinoa porridge was insanely delicious and filling, and the coconut shavings just added something extra to the meal. Afterwards I felt like I had eaten a decadent treat meal but actually, it was pretty damn healthy. Winning.
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE RESTAURANT IN THE WORLD! Ridiculously healthy and just as yummy. Best protein flapjack, salads and smoothies. I would eat here 3 times a day if I could, well I have. Such cool staff, they make it such a happy place!
Absolutely love this place.
The bright colours as you walk in echo the fresh, lively and happy feelings that you leave with.
Nourish food.Lots of alternative natural, fresh options- catering for variety of particular diets. Cold and hot options - food for all seasons. Juices, smoothies, salads, wraps, coffees and all day breakfast (my personal favourite) are some options.
Very quick, wonderfully pleasant and friendly service - creates a fabulous ethos for this hidden delight.
A quick meal, cafe office, meetings, catch up lunches - perfect for any daytime gathering.
Add to your bucket list.
I love this place. Had protein flapjacks. It's my new guilt free pleasure. Service was excellent. Food delicious. I really wish they would change to a halal menu then they would definitely see me often. They have an amazing choice of salads and smoothies. Yummy!!!!
Gym bunnies, rejoice! You can have pancakes for brekkie without going that extra 10 minutes on the treadmill. Living in Cape Town, sometimes it's hard to stay as healthy as possible with carb-endorsed restaurants at every corner. So when you find a menu where you don't have to feel anxious in your choice of meal, you feel a just little relieved you don't have to order another damn salad. But if like salads, not to worry, Nü do have those just incase you can't stray that far. And they are pretty good. Besides the wraps and breakfast items, Nü has a great and different selection of smoothies on the menu, the Strawberry-B being my favourite. And the green drinks, the detox is a winner if you're looking to cleanse you body after that hard night of tossing back shooters. Despite bring a small place, it is clean and neat. On some days when it gets busy and a bit overcrowded, you can wait a good 7-10 minutes for a smoothie. Other than that, Nü is good place for health-freaks and for young, social people.
Very healthy restaurants. Nutrition and vitality seems to be their main priority as well as keeping up with the trends on the food industry and design. The venue is nicely furnished and hip. Popular with models and beautiful people. I love their smoothies with superfoods. Some of the compo are a bit too over-healthy for me. I love their breakfasts though as all ingredients are extremely fresh and delicious even if it's something as simple as avo or cherry tomatoes.
This is probably my favourite place to eat in Cape Town ! Best Smoothie: COFFEE UNION ---Best Breakfast : PROTEIN FLAPJACK--- Best Salad: Pro B & Best Juice: D-TOX !!! So many beneficial ingredients(mostly organic) !! ALWAYS the best quality & service ?
One of the best salads in Cape Town (power house salad with chicken) and most delicious peanut butter smoothie! Love coming here! Casual, on the go eating with a clean set-up, friendly staff and a basin to clean your hands (yes!)
I absolutely love this spot. Incredible food, a beautiful spot for a Sunday morning brunch after a cycle. You always walk away feeling good!
Nu is my ultimate. Always a great meal and never disappointing. Designed so well inside! The food is outstanding and it's so convenient. Wish they would add a chocolate type dessert to the menu :)
I'm obsessed with their detox juices and quinoa salads. Too delicious! ???? it's so hard to eat healthy and still enjoy your food and this is just delicious!
Such a gorgeous little addition to green point, lovely! Try the red renew- yum!!!! Faith who works at front desk is also so sweet. Breakfasts are a must
This place is a must try in Capetown.
Food is fresh, tasty and healthy everything you wish to eat in a warm and sunny day.
For every sport people out there this is your call to nice food. They also have great breakfast and protein smoothies.
The prices are really affordable and worth the try 🤙
Just had thee most amazing breakfast I've had in a long time at Nü in Green Point!!
It was as tasty as hell. The ingredients all worked so well together and it was extremely delicious. I had the feta, avo, scrambled egg and toast breakfast and a very nice cup of coffee.
Would've liked the Nutter, but it was slightly outta budget, the coffee was nice tough.

I absolutely loved the peanut butter flapjacks that are gluten free and vegan at a very affordable price. They weren’t overly sweet which I really appreciate. I also enjoy their smoothies and healthy bowls. The bowls are quite simple in taste but great for when you’re wanting a healthy/ affordable meal. It would be great to have more smiling and enthusiastic staff but we still like this place for healthy and affordable food!
**Vegan review** Nü is one of my favourite breakfast spots! There are vegan options galore and the smoothies as well as the Matcha lattés are super yum! I recommend the raspberry overnight oats or the LSA bowl for brekkie (both minus the honey). Not in the mood for something sweet? Avo on rye is 100 too 🙌 4/5.
This place is actually so good! I wanted to try the whole menu, but settled for the vegan banana nut waffle and my partner had the avo on sourdough toast. Beautifully made food for exceptionally low prices. If your looking for a healthy tasty breakfast look no further than Nu health food cafe. The coffe is decent too. With a comfortable seating area inside and outside
I will definitely be returning on any chance I get.
Please like my review if it was helpful :) enjoy.
Covinenant spot to get fresh, healthy food at a reasonable price. Great for breakfast and lunch, also convenient for takeaway.
Freshly prepared; clean; keto; salad; low-carb; LCHF; + chicken breast - probably the most healthy meal around.
Cappuccino was good too
Recommended.
It's a cute small cafe with a great healthy but tasty menu that includes a vegan and vegetarian dietary. The outside area is especially lovely as the sun and sea air is a treat. If you're not keen for the outside seats, there's an inside area too. The tiger breakfast yoghurt cup is fantastic and one of my favourites. There's also snacks to grab on the go and the prices (in general) are not bad either.
We have been able to use our discovery vouchers with no problem. The food was prepared speedy, the service was friedly. Meal was fresh and yummy and I liked that they asked if we would like a straw with the smoothy or not. Thumbs up
Great health focused menu , using many superfoods and different grains. The standard of the food is pretty good and mostly very tasty. The staff are friendly and reasonable efficient.The only negative comment I would have is the regarding the worn out furniture and internal decor.
