Nitro Brew

Cape Town


This small cafe, stylish in its simplicity, serves nitro coffee – iced coffee poured from a draught tap. The nitrogen lends the appearance of a pint of Guinness and adds a smooth, velvety texture. Also on tap are various flavours of kombucha, all brewed on site. There are salads, sandwiches and a couple of heartier meals on the menu.
