Cafe D' Art At Alice Art Gallery

Sometimes by pure luck, someone mentions or recommends a place when you are in the area. This happened to be the case when we visited Alice Art Gallery as we had time to kill, so we were told to look out for this sign. It was still early morning but they were open along with loadshedding affecting their lovely quaint coffee shop Café d'Art. We ended up spending so much time here. Loving the quirkiness of the signage all over the premises. Taking a slow walk in the fresh crisp air, taking in the sights and sounds. Walking amongst some STUNNING art pieces which I wish I could afford. Then just looking out at the space, they even have a small kiddies area. The deck of the coffee shop also has its own art pieces, and some lovely plants surrounding it. There is also space inside if you want to sit and stare at the paintings. It was a no brainer to sit outside. There were only a few other people sitting around. Drinks, we ordered what didn't require electricity, and to eat of course i ordered the carrot cake along with a scone. Loved the presentation of the scone and its quite big. Although my slice of cake was thin (according to me) it was rich and tasted lovely. Our waitress Precious took her time as she could see we were just enjoying the open space and appreciating the art pieces. We could walk freely between the rooms without someone constantly walking behind you It's really one of those hidden places that you would not normally pay attention to. I'm so glad we were told to make a stop here. Awesome morning. Stunning art/talent 🎨 #TheFoodMusketeer #TheFoodMusketeerEats #TheFoodMusketeerExplores #TFMAliceArtGallery #TFMCafedart

What a beautiful venue. The artwork is well selected, and the venue is clean spaced. We lived it but came a bit late so the venue was a bit dark outside. I want to come back during the day. Do they do lunches? I see there is a play area.

This gallery hosts many stunning art exibitions and events. Sitting in the coffee shop or outside gives a lot of pleasure. The gallery owners are true to nature and love the mongoose, owls and birds that find peace in the tranquil garden.

Best place to have frames done for portraits. Thandie is brilliant and pleasant to work with. Her quality of work exceptional. Highly recommend

Had a magic breakfast at a small outdoor table in the sun early on a quiet Sunday morning. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly, efficient staff and good art to open the mind in the clustered city
