Unsure which foodie spots will have the ultimate fish and chips feast? Take a look at a few establishments that are sure to be a tasty experience.
SeaBreeze Fish & Shell
A trendy spot in Bree Street that adds a side of luxury to every meal. SeaBreeze is a great choice if you’re looking for a refined take on the traditional fish and chips dish. With cocktail specials and a variety of other seafood items on the menu, you’ll have a blast sipping and sampling your way through the menu.
Be sure to check to book in advance, as this hip-and-happening venue fills up fast. If you’re looking for a quiet spot, you’ll be better off not booking a spot when First Thursdays take place in Cape Town. Bree Street during this time has a tendency to be closed off for pedestrians to explore the street and party the night away.
Fish on the Rocks
A low-key spot situated in the sparkling bays of Hout Bay, Fish on the Rocks is the perfect place to enjoy the view with delicious food. With its location right on the sea, you’ll be able to witness boats floating by and enjoy the serene sounds of the ocean in pure bliss.
This establishment is known for having loyal local customers, so if you’re visiting South Africa and looking to sample food that is popular among its inhabitants, this one’s for you. Fish on the Rocks is also a wonderful eatery to visit after a visit to Hout Bay Beach, so be sure to pack for an epic day in the sun.
Rockpool Cape Town
A must if you’re staying in the sea-filled space of Sea Point, Rockpool is an excellent choice if you’re looking to do sundowners while enjoying your fish and chips. With the sun setting and the smell of seawater hitting the air, you’ll be able to experience a symphony for the senses on this outing.
Kalky’s
Kalk Bay is the ultimate place to walk without a destination in mind. With a medley of small shops and tranquil scenery to take in, you’ll find yourself coming back for more. If you’re craving fish and chips to put the cherry on top of your day, Kalky’s will have you covered. In the area, you’ll also find a number of free things to do to keep you busy.
