21 Coffee Shops in Cape Town to Work Remotely, to Escape Load Shedding

Swan features in Off to Wander’s 21 Coffee Shops in Cape Town to Work Remotely, to Escape Load Shedding

We love trying out the newest and smallest cafes to support local and small and of course rate their coffee deliciousness.

Cape Town – beautiful beaches, amazing weather and coffee shops/cafe’s popping up all over. We’re not complaining!

So can you imagine not drinking coffee?

One way to deal with load shedding in Cape Town is that you have the excuse to leave home in search of a good internet (coffee spot) to work from. We love taking a break from remote working and find we are more creative when working from a coffee shop. Is it the caffeine booster?

Swan Café

Corner Buitenkant and Barrack St

Bonjour! This is how you’re greeted by Swan Cafe staff as you enter the cafe.

Welcome to the little Paris of Cape Town, CBD. They are located on the corner of Buitenkant and Barrack Street, with lovely lighting and space for remote working. They have a generator and are fully functional during load shedding.

Swan Cafe serves Damn Fine Coffee, which is hand sourced from a local micro artisanal roaster.

PS: Most importantly, don’t forget to try out their yummy crepes!
