Clarke’s Bar & Dining Room

Cape Town


A focus of the Bree St hipster scene is this convivial spot with counter seating that pays homage to the US diner tradition. All-day breakfast dishes include grilled cheese sandwiches and huevos rancheros. There are Reubens and pork-belly sandwiches from lunchtime, as well as burgers and mac and cheese.

Hidden behind is Hail Pizza.
