Description
The 18th-century heritage building sets the scene for this characterful market, where you’ll find a selection of speciality meats, the best wines from the region, cheeses, craft beer and coffee.
Why you’ll love it Inspired by the Cape’s history as a vital trading post, De Warenmarkt offers a rich cultural experience, as well as a wide range of fresh produce and artisanal foods. There’s a Grab & Go Deli that serves gourmet sandwiches and salads; a tasteful wine lounge at the back with a cosy fireplace (perfect for cosy rendez-vous on icy Stellies’ days); and the Kaapse Vonkel MCC and Oyster Bar in the middle serves utterly delicious fresh Saldanha Bay oysters and top-drawer bubbly.
Dog-friendly? Yes, on leads. Small dogs are allowed inside the restaurant, however larger dogs are required to stay outside near the wine lounge.
