Bar The Drinkery
A contemporary speakeasy, bringing a touch of prohibition-era mystery to the Cape Town CBD. The Drinkery is exactly what its name promises—a place focused on well-made drinks in a setting that feels like a secret worth knowing.
The bartenders are skilled and friendly, always willing to make recommendations or create a custom drink just for you. Whether you are looking for a classic cocktail or a unique craft beer, the menu has something to satisfy your taste buds. The atmosphere is intimate and unpretentious, perfect for a after-work wind-down or a late-night conversation with friends.
