WELCOME BACK BALDUCCI

  Introducing Caffé Balducci, Sea Point’s new all-day social destination

Balducci, Cape Town’s iconic Italian dining institution, is back – and this time, in a brand-new incarnation. Welcoming its first customers on Sunday, 13 September, 30 years since Balducci first opened its doors in September 1996, the much-loved name returns as Caffé Balducci, bringing its distinctive spirit to the vibrant Piazza St John precinct in the heart of Sea Point.

 

Welcome to Caffé Balducci, a modern-day ode to the glamour, energy and effortless allure of classic European café society, infused with the buzz, diversity and creativity of contemporary Cape Town. It is the same signature Balducci soul with a fresh new pulse.

 

Open early until late, Caffé Balducci brings an irresistible all-day café culture to Piazza St John. From early-morning espresso and ceremonial-grade matcha to leisurely breakfasts, Italian-style lunches, sundowners, wining and dining, and late-night socialising, it is a place designed for every part of the day.

 

Elegant yet relaxed, sophisticated yet vibey, Caffé Balducci is all about great coffee, chilled wine, cool beats and the easy pleasure of lingering over good food with good company. Two inviting alfresco terraces and tables spilling into the piazza create the perfect setting to soak up the sunshine, hang out, and be seen.

 

Inside, premium aesthetics meet artistic décor, creating a stylish setting that feels polished and chic, yet retains that unmistakable Cape Town energy. For the cool, on-trend crowd, big-screen televisions feature Fashion TV, while cutting-edge techno adds to the buzz  – with DJ nights planned for the near future.

Daily operating times: 8:30 - late / Booking advised
