Allure Rooftop Lounge describes itself as a world-class rooftop lounge in the heart of Cape Town. It has plenty of seating indoors and outside, from intimate tables perfect for date night to comfortable couches where you can chill with the crew. The venue is luxurious, and there’s a sexy, trendy bar in the middle of it all. Plus, the patio heaters make it the perfect spot for cosy winter evenings.
Allure is also open for lunch and day-time drinks. Image: Mpumelelo Nyambi
Say goodbye to early mornings at McDonalds after a night out, Allure’s kitchen stays open till 2am, plus its food is halaal. For under R100 you can get grilled Corn Ribs with a spicy sauce, Indian-style Lamb Kebabs or an Allure Salad, made with a variety of fresh greens, apple and tomatoes.
Vegetarian or not, Corn Ribs are always a good idea. Image: @the_leaf_eaters
For mains, try Chicken Lollipops, served with a secret sauce; Fish In The Foil; Sticky Spare Ribs or King Prawns served with a lemon butter sauce. Vegans, try the Asian-style Stir-Fry Noodles made with bean sprouts, red cabbage, spinach, baby corn and eggplant. There’s also platters to share, from chicken wings, beef ribs and beef sliders, to a deluxe seafood platter with prawns, line fish, mussels and calamari. Order these for lunch, dinner or a late-night indulgence.
The kitchen only closes at 2am, perfect for a late-night meal. Image: Mpumelelo Nyambi
Allure is the ideal venue if you want to transition daytime pleasures to nighttime celebrations. As the sun sets, dance to the beats of resident and guest DJs while sipping popular cocktails, such as The Cheecki Tiki (blend of three types of rum, grenadine, pineapple, orange juice and apricot extracts) or Kiwi Bellini (Monin kiwi purée topped with Method Cap Classic). Or order bottle service, delivered by the stunning bottle girls.
Allure usually features an all-female DJ line-up, but likes to mix it up on some nights. Image: Mpumelelo Nyambi
Finding parking in the city can be challenging – and expensive. Allure offers free parking to its visitors at 87 - 95 Waterkant Street, De Waterkant. Keep an eye on Allure’s social media for upcoming events like celebrity performances, menu tastings, first Thursdays and other cultural events.
This gem is the perfect mix of luxury and comfort. Image: Mpumelelo Nyambi
