La Belle

Cape Town


This bistro and bakery in front of the Alphen Hotel hotel is appealing both inside and out – for breakfast, lunch or a snack. Treat yourself to buttermilk pancakes and a speciality leaf tea for breakfast, or a lunch of griddled cheeseburger or smoked-salmon sandwich.

There's also a branch in Camps Bay.
