Fresh, fun and delicious! Love the menu and the variety that they offer. Knead has a very welcoming atmosphere of that local spot down the drag. Great option for a breakfast to get your morning off to a good start. Try the avo and bacon croissant
Went to Knead for a post-graduation brunch before dinner and it was fantastic! The staff were lovely, food was great, had delicious gluten-free options and they were nice enough to accommodate a small graduation gift at my mother's request. Super cute!
You can’t go wrong with a Knead breakfast. They have a huge breakfast menu with something for everyone. The service can be a little slow but that’s usually because they are full. I love their omelettes and avo toast and my boyfriend raves about their eggs Benedict. Coffee is great and their breads are delicious (I love the sourdough). Also great that it’s near the Bryanston parkrun so you can pop over for a quick brekkie afterwards.
Went on Sunday for an early breakfast date. My bf order the breakfast pizza and I had the croque madam. It was all delicious, except the pizza was crispy on the edge of burnt around the edges. We didn't mind that though, and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I tried to order a matcha without the mint (allergies) and they didn't actually tell me that they couldn't remove it or why, but it was great service otherwise. I got a takeaway croissant for my sister, which she said was amazing, and we got some bread for Sunday lunch with the family which was also highly complimented by the family crowd later. All in all, a great spot, with delicious food!
Absolutely wonderful place. Service is a bit slow, but food is worth it. I am an occasional regular and highly recommend it. I love it and try the mince on toast.
Knead has become our go-to breakfast spot on the weekends. The staff are always friendly and efficient and the food is delicious. Great spot for a coffee and quick bite.
Today I visited Knead for breakfast in Riverside Shopping Centre. The service was fast and great with very friendly staff. The only problem we experienced was that the smoked salmon lacked flavor was not fresh. Besides that I had a tasteful time. The small restaurant exhumes a relaxed youthful vibe. I would suggest visiting this restaurant in small numbers (up to like 4 people) with any age group.
Delicious meals and the bakery serves wonderful freshly-baked goods! Lovely variety for brunch or lunch. The burger was worth the indulgent splurge. Excellent service.
One of my favourite locals.
The salads are to due for and the bread welll.... no words can describe what heaven on earth is like.
It's a great little gem and you can take your own wine cause they don't have a liquor licence. If you just stopping by the woolies is next door just incase u need a bottle or two.
The staff are friendly and the interior is clean and sleek. It's perfect sized bakery cafe thst caters for those who love the finer things in life.
The smell of fresh bread looms in the ear which makes one feel warm and content.
The portions are substantial so you won't be left kneading....
Awesome Quiz night for weekday evening entertainment 💁🏼❤️ Loads of fun and interaction with great food and wine 😏😁 will definitely be back next week 🤗
I knead you in my life, after a park run on a Saturday morning, grabbing a flat white and a delicious pasty is just perfect. This place pumps and the breads are scrumptious and fresh too. I'll be back for lunch soon, got to try that menu.
I loved the whole idea of knead bakery. The breads are all freshly baked and so yummy. We had great service from our waiter Revonia , she was kind and pleasant and explained the menu quite well. I tried the classic cheese toast and the creamy mushrooms on toast with a soft poached egg. The texture and flavors were wholesome and great! To drink I tried the green rooibos tea and Nutella hot chocolate. Can't wait to try out the dinner specials 🌸
Lovely little breakfast spot, although we went during lunchtime. The nice thing about this place is that they serve breakfast all day which is a winner. My friend went for the mince and poached eggs which she loved and I opted for the feta+butternut pizza which was divine. The only reason I didn't score higher is that my cafe mocha arrived luke warm and I prefer all my hot drinks to be just that, HOT 😊
My husband and I had a fantastic brunch here this morning. The staff were friendly and efficient and our food was delicious! I had the Croque Spinach and my husband had the Savoury Mince with poached eggs. Eggs cooked perfectly to order and the meals were so tasty. Great coffee and a real treat of a Dark Chocolate Mocha. I can see this becoming our go-to for coffee and brekkie.
I stopped in at my local shopping centre this week for breakfast at Knead Bakery & Café, to try it out.
I was served by Joseph, who was helpful and friendly.
I ordered a savory croissant and coffee. My cappuccino was good and the savory croissant was okay. I will let the photos speak for themselves, but I am not sure if I maybe ordered the wrong first breakfast that maybe does not showcase what Knead can do.
Anyway, since then I have also popped in to buy one of their beef pies and chocolate croissants wrapped up for takeaway. Both were good.
*Recommendation: Definitely a great go-to coffee local and an ideal spot to pop in for a quick breakfast, when you are in the area.

From the fresh smell of fresh bread in the morning to the smell of freshly ground coffee my taste buds were buzzing from the minute we entered knead. The ambience left you feeling like you were in a modern restaurant although at the same time so welcoming that you almost felt as if you were home. The food was delicious and the tastes tickled my palate. For more read my blog on https://jessbirdinthewild.wordpress.com/2017/05/05/you-need-to-try-knead/
For a restaurant thats only been open for 3 months i highly recommend this fantastic little cafe, bistro, coffee shop. Tell your friends and family about this very reasonably priced, well situated restaurant....
Definitely a winner!!!

I am very impressed with Knead! The service and food are both fantastic! Best cappuccino I have ever had! I will definitely be back and I will spread the word.
I like the simple clean look with friendly staff who look like they value your support, like the breakfast menu served all day , why not ? Serve crispy bacon without being asked , need however to cook fried eggs 🍳 with more care , I am a stickler for a perfect egg , sure Kneed will do well up here , look forward to more branches being opened 😀
KNEAD bryanston is in a great location the food is good the service is great! The staff are friendly and inviting. The decor makes you feel right at home
Early breakfast at Knead Bakery & Cafe was pleasant . I had scrambled eggs with salmon and Avo which was good enough and my friend enjoyed his omelette ..
Coffee was preety good I enjoyed my latte...
Service was efficient as well .
Pastries look interesting worth a try next time ...
What a fantastic little restaurant and service is outstanding so friendly and caring. It is such an inviting place. The food is really good. My husband and son had breakfast pizza so tasty. I had creamy mushroom 🍄 with and egg on top it was delicious. The coffee is good and there chai latte is one of the best I have ever had. This is definitely one of the best breakfast place I have ever tried. They sell fresh bread and buttermilk rye is so great. I don't have the words to express how much I enjoyed our visit here. You must really try this little gem 💎.
Went for dinner on Tuesday evening and had the most delicious pizza and salad. Definitely going back soon! The staff were also super friendly.
I've been to Knead at the Riverside Shopping Centre twice this week (that's how much I enjoyed it). Their shop is gorgeous and the service, especially from their manager, was fantastic. They are very attentive. Be warned though, on Saturday mornings they have a park run rush from around 8:30. They seem to manage the hustle and bustle and offer a shorter menu during this time. Another wonderful thing about Knead is all day breakfast! Because who doesn't live eggs and bacon anytime of the day. Their baked goods looks amazing, I've had my eye on their brownies all week. Delicious strong coffee. Yummy food. Welcoming and attentive staff. Winner!
First trip to Knead anywhere in Joburg. Nice little cozy place. Good food. Friendly staff but service disappointing...or maybe it was because of the Parkrun rush. Breakfast was yummy and will come back soon. Give them a second chance 😉
Awesome spot. Amazing lunch, coffee and pastries. Great service and feel here. We’re from out of town and really enjoyed our lunch. We ended up staying for nearly 3 hrs! Would highly recommend.
Was absolutely awesome. The service was excellent. Shame, we were a huge group and they managed to assist us so professionally. The meal I had wasn't as tasty as it looked (my opinion). But the other options were superb according to the rest of the group. The place is clean and the welcoming. I can go there again.
Love the warmth and food in general.
Our orders were incorrect with ingredients missing on two occasions.
When they get it right it's brilliant. But I'm weary of the consistency. Sometimes you get biscuits or toasted croissants with the cappuccinos, sometimes nothing.
There is water in a large glass decanter with lemon or cucumber for the patrons to help themselves.
Position is great next to the river.
Food is always fresh.They have freshly baked breads and pastries everyday. Smoothies are yum. Their tacos are better than some of the Mexican restaurants in the area. They also run weekday specials. It's an open and easy atmosphere perfect place to chill or meet a friend for a coffee.
Good place to try in the mornings, I have personally not tried going there for lunch but I did get take aways and it was an amazing lunch option. They also have the best menu options for all the healthy people out there.
Last thing I would suggest trying they're breads.
The store name changed to The Daily.. nice breakfast
Super excellent meals that are well priced. We have eaten at this branch on four occasions and the quality standard of the meal is truly excellent. Very highly recommended.
Amazing. Great menu. Enjoyed the pasta even if it could have been a little less salty. Otherwise, I will definitely go back again.
Delicious food and lovely atmosphere. Their freshly baked bread is a must try. A great spot for breakfast.
Great service and delicious breakfast. Also the menu is a little different from other places, not just run of the mill breakfasts!
Best spot to stop for a wholesome and healthy breakfast after your Saturday Parkrun.
You should definitely try the poached egg on avo toast
Always good food and coffee. Freshly baked bread and prompt service. Worth a revisit.
