We were introduced to Gravity Cafe by my new boss who invited me here for my interview. Since then we came back for their food. Because the coffee is great. 

It's no secret we're a sucker for an outdoor venue with a great vibe. Add stunning food into the mix and BAM! New favourite haunt.

Their burgers are generous, juicy, tasty and so very more-ish. Their breakfasts look delish, and their prices are very reasonable.

Definitely worth supporting this little independant to keep them in business :D

Went here recently for brunch and was definitely not disappointed! The cafe has a really nice atmosphere and is very welcoming and well decorated. You have the option of sitting inside completely, or in the shade outside. Gravity has quirky artworks all around and also recommends its juices which are made by them and are exceptionally popular. The menu has a wide variety to display, and each portion of food is just right in terms of quantity and perfect in terms of quality. Both the manager and waiters/waitresses are super friendly and interactive, very attentive and accommodating. Food was delicious, well presented, excellently made and just the perfect portion. Definitely value for money- I would highly recommend Gravity for a breakfast or brunch, and I definitely will be back for lunch sometime soon!

I had the banting egg muffins and a strawberry smoothie as well as their almond latte. All of it was polished, and super tasty!

What a great hidden gem!

I found this place on Zomato and gave it a try with some friends for breakfast. It's a quaint, cozy little joint with wonderful, friendly staff. 

Their coffees and hot chocolates are delicious as is their food. Perfect place to have a relaxed breakfast/lunch. 

I love the warm and positive vibe at this place.

Great service, wonderful atmosphere and fantastic food made for a really pleasant and enjoyable quick lunch.

Denis Warren-Tangney had the bacon, mozzarella and caramelised onion toastie in seeded bread. I had the gravity burger - beautiful real beef mince, bacon, Camembert and caramelised onion. Chips were fresh and crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside.

Cappuccino was sublime - def one of the best coffees in Linden.

Worth your support!!!

Visited Gravity with a friend. We had the chicken and Mayo sour dough sandwich. Was really nice and tasty. Had the beetroot health juice which is freshly squeezed at Gravity - very refreshing! Although I’m not really a sweet tooth, I tried the chocolate and cookies flavored cappuccino - something different and recommended to try at least once. Relaxed setting which is exactly what one wants from a cafe. Pricing is very fair. Will go back in the near future.

Excellent coffee and decent, free wifi are a good starting point. The waitresses are helpful and friendly. The toasted sandwich I ordered exceeded my expectations, and the chips are worth coming to Gravity to try! My only complaint is that the restaurant is a little dingy and could do with better lighting.

Gravity is one of Linden's gems. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, I often find myself just spending the day working at this cafe. The manager and staff all check up on you and have casual conversations. The food is always great and fresh! They also have the best flavoured coffees- hazelnut being my personal favourite. On Sunday, we ordered a toasted chicken mayo and the hangover burger. It didn't take long and obviously, it was great!

Being avid restaurant goers and always looking for a new and unique spot for a yummy breakfast, we finally decided to go and try Gravity Cafe. We normally rent DVD's from the store across the road and we have always had our eye on the quaint little shops and restaurant on the other side. And boy was it worth it! I'm trying to be a bit more health conscious and the boyfriend likes breakfast but in minimal portions (he's not really a breakfast person except if breakfast is served at 12), and this was the perfect fit.

Gravity Cafe has a very light and healthy menu, but they also have some treats like french toast and cake if you're not particularly looking for a healthy meal. All the items on the menu are also very well priced and great value for the portions you get.

We ordered two double shot americano's which were nice and strong and hot. For breakfast my boyfriend had a Gravity breakfast which consisted of bacon, mushrooms, two eggs, toast (ciabatta, rye, or seeded), and a side of butter stir fried zucchini strips and rosa tomatoes. I had a smoked salmon and hashbrown breakfast which consisted of 2 crispy hasbrowns, topped with a dollop of cream cheese and a very substantial piece of smoked salmon on each hashbrown; finished off with capers and micro greens, and the same zucchini and tomato side. The food was simple, warm and fresh and honestly divine.

The service was really warm, attentive, and friendly. The waitresses are well trained, and the owner, Rob, stopped by each table for a quick chat.

I'm pretty sure this will become a favourite for us... definitely want to try out their lunch menu soon... 😊

I really believe that this is a very underrated little restaurant in Linden; maybe not everyone's taste but it's unpretentious, and they serve simple food and good coffee... And they have free Wi-Fi! What more could you ask for! 😊

Driving through Linden this morning looking for a breakfast spot ... the Cheese place was closed ... Whippet was closed ... didn't want to go to The Argentinian .... oh wow, what's that spot ...

Gravity Cafe.  Fabulous decor ... absolutely love it.  Cosy ambiance, friendly owner and good service.

A hazelnut syrup in my cappuccino sounded good ... so that's what I had.  Yummo!  Hein had Americano and it was good.

Salmon roses and cream cheese on crispy hashbrowns with capers and raw baby marrow strips with cherry tomato and micro green salad.  Served with a lemon wedge.  DELICIOUS!  How many times at other places do I order a fish dish and have to ask for some lemon .... 

Hein had an omelette (it wasn't as puffy as it could be) with caramelized onions, mushrooms and bacon with salad and Ciabatta toast.  Absolutely yummy.

Really nice little place for breakfast.

This is a little gem in Linden. It's a perfect working and relaxing spot. I've been for breakfast and cake a couple of times. The cake selection is out of this world - ridiculously huge decadent slices. Good coffee and a pleasant atmosphere, it's one of those places where you can sit forever and feel welcome.

I thought it high time I do a proper review of what was once my old spot (Angelo's Deli) seeing as I'm quite the regular and will happily sing it's praises every chance I get. Here's why: the new owner (well, since July '16) is doing a brilliant job at creating a home away from home with delicious food and a great vibe. The burgers are a joy, coffee is good (and not burnt, why do so many places get this wrong?) and the decor is stylish (yes, I played a part there). Appropriately priced too. Sometimes there's live music, and I'd highly recommend Gravity as a charming function venue. Well done Rob!

Had a delightful experience. Popcorn milkshake was delicious and certainly something new for me! Toasted Ciabatta with mozzarella, basil pesto and tomato with a side salad hit the spot. Naturally a Cuppacino to follow.

This is probably the third time I've been to Gravity to satisfy my craving for smoked salmon and cream cheese on hash browns. The accompanying salad makes it a healthier option and of course...extra avo for me. My friends ordered the banting burger and the salmon salad (which she couldnt finish). We then shared yummy crumpets with strawberries and cream. The portions are very generous and prices are reasonable.

Rob, the owner/manager is also very hands-on and very ready to offer advice if you're undecided about what to eat.

Its definitely worth a visit if you're in Linden and need a bite.

My first visit. Late morning breakfast and then, why not, a chocolate milkshake. Simply the best breakfast I've had outside a 5 star hotel.
The venue is chilled and with inside and 'garden' seating options.
The service could be marginally faster.
I recommend and I'll drive some distance to eat here again.

A little bit slow on the service but if you are not in a rush and the weather is good it is nice to sit outside in the garden and watch the world go by! They have live music on the weekends and the home stores are nice to pop into. The food is good and the coffee is wonderful! They also have Entertainer specials which makes it a super affordable brunch or breakfast option in Linden.

I visited Gravity after hearing about it from friends and then read the reviews. General comment: Very relaxing, trendy and informal. Kids and pets in limited numbers, great. Live band playing 'lunch' music, gently so it didn't compete with conversation. Great staff, friendly and comfortably quick. Our food was superbly prepared...two different burgers (why not?), and tantalizing juices (Green Peace and Carrot). Gravity doesn't pretend to be upmarket in Linden. It is a great, good-value-for-money sidewalk restaurant and has my vote for a comfortable weekend lunch or breakfast.
PS: I don't know which place Top Foodie went to but Gravity doesn't serve Blue cheese burgers, with or without syrup??

What an awesome little place. Quaint, interesting people. Owner is a friendly arty sort of guy. Food prices were decent but not cheap for the amazing quality. I had a Banting Burger my partner had Bacon, cammertbear & caramelised onion Burger. It is small so feels a bit too intimate if you want space there are outside tables. There was a little Jazz band entertaining the restuarant. The service is also fast and friendly. I am definately going back.

Under new management of Roger and helping hands of friendly Kossie and other staff, has turned this site into a vibrant weekend breakfast/brunch spot. They have new additions on their menu, keep in mind not to overlook the board. If you love a flawless crumpet, get on over! They have a wonderful variety. I couldn't resist the Walnut & Cardamon trio crumpets with cream, what a divine combination. The Salmon on Hash Browns will enhance anyone's day. Noticing lots of young families present with children of all ages happily tucking into varied tasty morsels. Be patient as a small kitchen so food for a larger party could take time. They offer free wifi, have noted this for a work spot when a crumpet craving attacks or perhaps just to come enjoy a delicious coffee. It's small and cozy but they also have an outdoor area, a little chilly now but lovely for summer.

Tried out gravity cafe in Linden on a bit of an impulse and was pleasantly surprised. So nice sitting outside in the sun in a pet friendly garden. Their Banting breakfast one of the best I've had and the hit coal stove inside is perfect for these cold winter mornings. Might just become my new Sunday morning breakfast with the doggies place.

I have an assignment due tomorrow, so decided to get out of the house and find a place to work distraction-free. My husband and I had previously been to Gravity Cafe, having heard about it via my Entertainer app, and I therefore knew that they had good wi-fi and a few cosy places to sit and immerse myself.

Gravity has something for everyone, really! They have a super outside section with tables and umbrellas, as well as a patio, a long bar table where you can spread out your newspaper on a weekend morning, and a cosy inside section with a great seating arrangement. They have banting-friendly options, carb-lover dream food (cakes, french toast!) as well as fun cocktails which you can sample to your heart's delight at their Friday happy hour!

Their menu is uncomplicated, but the dishes are certainly flavourful. They also have new dishes every now and then, which is a good way to add variety. It's not a huge establishment, quite small, actually, so gets busy easily. I had no trouble plugging into a powerpoint and getting stuck into work. The service is always welcoming and warm, but can be quite slow. While I am usually BIG on service, as you might know, this, interestingly enough, doesn't seem to deter me from wanting to return.

Simple, unfussy, a great relaxed hangout with an easy and unpretentious vibe. You'll probably stay longer than you intended..!

Sunday morning breakfast at this breath of fresh air in Linden.

I ordered a Toni Glass Collection Earl Grey tea which was presented in a generous teapot to keep me refreshed throughout my entire meal. My meal consisted of salmon slices on hash browns with cream cheese, along with some fried halloumi and avocado, and lastly a neatly placed side greensalad. A slice of rye ensured a well-rounded and satisfying breakfast. Top notch food!

An overall pleasant experience with amazing food, superb service and adorable puppies to keep everyone entertained at this dog-friendly café. A point to keep in mind however might be that the extra breakfast sides aren't necessarily the biggest portions.

Highly recommended to anyone wishing to kickstart their day off in a great mood and with a happy tummy.

Being a Lindenite I'm surprised I've never noticed Gravity Cafe before today.... But what a hidden little gem it is!
I like anywhere with outside seating so I loved that I could sit outside and watch the world pass by.
We opted for: the basic one with additional mushrooms, bacon and hash browns which my mom said was delish and I had the smoked salmon with cream cheese on hash browns. It wad superb! and Considering the price I was pleasantly surprised with the generous portions of salmon.
The food took a wee while to arrive but I didn't mind as it was pleasant sitting in the sunshine seeing the little ones have fun messing with the Lego in the kiddies area.
I look forward to returning and devouring my way through their lunch menu...

I was very pleasantly surprised by this little find in Linden. Drove past it and it caught my eye and decided to give it a chance for breakfast the next day. I had a fantastic cappuccino, brilliantly done and fairly priced breakfast and the service was friendly and efficient. They brought us fruit infused water without us even requesting it where I usually have to ask twice for a glass at most restaurants. I need to go back to taste a really great looking carrot cake I saw there.

4th avenue Linden doesn't quite have the same bustling nature as its counterpart in Parkhurst does, but when you drive through Linden, Gravity should be on your list of stops to make.

Open, light, bright and with some fun quirky decorations makes for a great setting, and the food is equally as good.

The first plan had flown over (as my mum likes to say when ordering a glass of wine :) so we each had a glass, reasonably priced by the glass too at R28 each. Their coffee selection also smelt amazing though, so will definitely have to go back to try it out sometime.

Our food orders, 125g Sirloin Steak with a side order of chips - R60 (the meat was tender and cooked exactly the way we had asked for it); and the peaches and Camembert Chicken Breast on a bed of mash - R80 (the mash was really great, and the combination of the peaches and Camembert was fantastic.

The menu is comprehensive without being too overwhelming and offers a little bit of everything for a light or more hearty meal.

I like the chilled vibe at Gravity, especially when the sun is shining. Gravity to contributes to the renewal of the Linden area, and gives the area a slightly younger and more urban feeling. 

I enjoy the food menu and the service. The people are friendly. The menu is original and nice. The quality of the food is good, but improvement can be made here. 

Summary: this is a nice place, with great potential. Some work on the menu can be done.

A lovely unexpected surprise as it is situated a little way from the trendy Linden cafe strip. Yet when you enter, the vibe is funky and the music just what you need on a relaxing weekend. The waitress is full of smiles and the small outdoor garden a nice idea if you have kiddies. As it was cold and wintery, we opted for the butternut soup which was just what the doctor ordered.

A great experience overall. Kyle is a gentleman and made sure we were welcome and had some lovely conversation. It was loadshedding which is unfortunate so no chips or chicken and waffles but man... did they still deliver. The Cubana and Moz Pesto Ham were large in portion , super cheezy and all round just bloody damn good. Kyle went out of his way to get us some vodka accross the street having depleted anl make sure they could deliver on their menu. It really was not necessary but well received. I will bring my friends and family here to support Byron's. Liden gets an average rap but 4th street is lively and fulle of energy, good eating and spright experience. What I say is get out, get in and have a great time out in this old school neighbourhood.

We didn't eat here, only had a cappuccino each. We felt that there was nothing to the lace but then we read the menu with their story and felt there was something to connect to. To have the staff be much more involved and effective I feel the managerial group should involve them maybe a little more about the story.

1st visit to Gravity Cafe, lovely hidden gem in Linden. Friendly waitress. Delicious fresh food. Enjoyed the Chicken Camembert on sour dough bread. Well priced. Will most certainly return.

Had a lovely farewell breakfast for a friend, out on the deck beneath the tree. When I booked, I'd told Kyle, the owner, that it was for us to say goodbye to a friend, and when we arrived, there was a Lindt chocolate on every side plate...a thoughtful touch! The food was delicious and well priced, with good service, and good atmosphere.

I would like to give Gravity a 3 starts , the reason I raised it to 4 is because free wifi and the fantastic friendly staff and quick service. Unfortunately the quality of ingredients in the almond milk double cappuccino is avarage. The green Smoothy was also very fantastic. I later on ordered a single shot cappuccino, I'd give this coffee a 2 stars. The tables need a very good scrub as I find them very sticky. The bathroom is very clean. I ordered the omelet with salmon and found the food very very oily or buttery not sure what they used to cook this dish. Also the quality of cheese was very avarage and too much of it in my omelet. Overall it's a great location, a comfortable setting and good service I'd advice a good clean of the restaurant and the food for me was not the best in Johannesburg but edable. I would visit again for the vibe and the heathy juices but the coffee needs a little tweaking perhaps. Thank you Gravity for a good morning and a friendly comfortable atmosphere that made it enjoyable to spend my time here.

Quaint little cafe with excellent cofee, breakfast and light meals. The owner of the cafe is around most of the time and greets you with a friendly demeanor. Generally everything on the menu is very reasonably priced.

Quick pop-in before an appointment. So calm and relaxing. Great service and coffee and food. Unusual eatery, this. I wanted to rate the business more highly as the location (for me easy to get to and tucked away from major traffic) and ambience are good. However, prices are only average to high (expensive freshly squeezed juices for example). Overall I was left feeling that the business feels it can charge as it does, simply by providing generous portions. Don't get me wrong, I love my food and can fully appreciate what was provided on my plate! Though not a large range of menu items, all was freshly prepared and majorly simple. Service was attentive.

Great neighbourhood cafe to grab a coffee, have some breakfast or even lunch. If you love to use straws but want to be Eco-wise as well, Gravity cafe offers glass straws to use with your beverage. Overall warm ambience and cosy place to hang.

There are many places to have breakfast, but very few that have that very personal welcome. The food was superb, the setting inviting and the staff professional and friendly. The owner Kyle, adds a personal touch that makes the visit memorable. Highly recommended.
