Winter is coming to Cape Town and nothing makes a blustery day cosier than a warm fireplace inside. We’ve rounded up 5 Cape Town restaurants with a fireplace, where you can keep warm and toasty while nibbling on delicious food and spending some time catching up with friends.
Rick’s Café is located in a lovely Victorian house, with three fireplaces. In this warm and welcoming atmosphere created by friendly waiters and subtly Moroccan decoration, you can spend a lovely night at their cocktail bar, chilling in a lounge or even on the roof deck with a stunning view over the mountains. They serve great wines and cocktails, as well as comfort food with a Mediterranean influence.

Are you looking for delicious food in a comfy atmosphere? Then “The Odyssey” is the gastropub for you. Located in the city centre this restaurant offers the perfect balance of hearty food and live entertainment & music in a relaxed area. Enjoy a local craft beer or glass of wine next to the fireplace there.

Societi Bistro is as the name implies, a typical bistro. That means French home-style cooking and slow-cooked really tasty foods. Here you can spend a nice evening with friends, enjoying excellent service and a pleasant atmosphere.

The Wild Fig has something for everyone. Here you can find all kinds of food: pasta, meat, and salads. Live music and craft beer are also on offer. This location is suitable for all types of events including weddings, birthday parties, and product launches. And it has a hearty fireplace for cold winter days.

A Touch of Madness, Observatory
The motto of “A Touch of Madness” is “Eat global, drink local”. That is what they offer, delicious food from all over the world and drinks from Southern Africa. You should not miss the chance to enjoy live music and daily specials, a different one on every day while feeling the warmth from the fireplace.
