Known for its old-school charms, beautiful beachfront vibes and wonderful outdoor spaces (like the Green Point Urban Park or Sea Point Promenade) Sea Point is a great place in the Mother City to explore and enjoy with your friends and family.
But with all these fun activities and so many places to see – what do you do when the hunger strikes? Well, you definitely don’t stress, that’s for sure – because Sea Point is blessed with some simply scrumptious eateries and restaurants!
Let’s take a look at the best restaurants in super Sea Point:
#1 Scheckter’s RAW
When Tony Scheckter spent some time living in New York, he was shocked to discover just how creative and inventive the health food scene in the city was.
Upon returning to SA, he was both frustrated and disappointed to discover how limited many local eateries could be… So, he decided to created his own food cafe to counter that.
And oh, has the city been grateful he decided to do that… If you’re a health fanatic, vegan or simply someone who loves fresh, delicious and healthy foods, then you need to head to Scheckter’s RAW… now!
This Sea Point-situated eatery serves up wonderful gourmet health food – curated by Tony Scheckter himself – and a whole lot of restaurant charm besides.
