OUT! Cape Town

A travel journal to Cape Town by MiriamMannak

Cape Town has many nightlife venues, from cozy bars to trendy clubs and everything in between. Here is an overview of my favorite places.

RafikisBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Rafiki's"

Rafiki's (which means Friend in Swahili) is my all-time favourite place to have a drink and to catch up with ... friends!

They have, on a regular basis live performances. Keep an eye out for the bands Plush and Verity. They rock! On Tuesday there is a great duo playing (forget the name) African-style music scattered with golden oldies of for instance Bob Marley.

So do yourself a favour: go to Rafikis and order a Cobra/Mojito/Savanna/whatever and chill. Or go wild.

Café MojitoBest of IgoUgo

Attraction | "Mojito"

Mojito is situated on upper Long Street and is the best place in town for a cocktail, especially from 5pm to 6pm, when all cocktails are R13/1.80 Euro.

Mojito isn't really the place to party, but it is an excellent spot to start-off your night out. Have a cocktail, something to eat (their Nacho's Grande and chicken jerky are excellent!), sit back and plan where you are off to next.


Marvel maybe (opposite), Jo'burg? Or a game of Pool at Stones instead? It is all up to you!

StonesBest of IgoUgo

Attraction

Fancy a game of pool? Go to Stones on Long Street in the city centre (Long Street) or on Main Road in the suburb Observatory.
The one in the city centre has a great balcony overlooking Long Street, Cape Town's place to be when it comes to nightlife. They have a dance floor, too, so non-pool players have a reason to tag along.
Music? Everything from contemporary to '80s, '70s and '60s.
Vibe? Relaxed, easygoing... your typtical pool place atmosphere.
