Hip Bistro: Charlie on Kloof Nek
It's got vintage decor, mountain views, and contemporary food seven days a week
The hip neighbourhood where Kloof Street turns into Kloof Nek Road is where youll find Charlie, a contemporary bistro and bar, next to the heavenly Cloud 9 Boutique Hotel & Spa.
UNIQUE AND DELICIOUS DISHES
They only serve free-range locally-sourced meats and everything is freshly prepared in-house by the passionate kitchen team. Sit on the terrace with its magnificent view of Table Mountain, while you sip coffee. For breakfast, try the smashed avo on zucchini fritters with poached eggs, or the streaky bacon, caramelised banana and fynbos honey on French toast.
The Bokke Burgers are a delicious and healthy lunch option, with a free-range Namibian springbok and gemsbok patty. Starters such as the peri-peri chicken wings are a big hit. The pan-fried kudu fillet served with roast butternut, tempura onions, broccoli and red wine jus makes for a hearty meal.
You can’t say no to the sugar-free chocolate brownie served with date purée and Chantilly cream.
