Camps Bay Restaurant - The Bayside Cafe

The Bayside Cafe - Camps Bay Restaurant

Situated in a most enviable location on Camps Bay's glorious beachfront, the Bayside Café enjoys magnificent sea views and spectacular sunsets. Successfully run by Eddie Uys for the past 14 years, this popular establishment has a strong local following who appreciate the consistent good quality of food and service.

The spacious interior, which is spread over two floors, is undergoing a complete revamp to complement the existing architecture of this gracious building which is 75 years old. The smoking section which occupies the first floor, has been dramatically improved by the addition of natural stone walls, polished wooden floors, crisp white tablecloths and comfortable upholstered chairs. Strategic splashes of colour and attractive arched windows complete the sophisticated new look which has also been carried through to the downstairs section.

Popular for breakfasts over weekends and holidays, the restaurant is fortunate to have shady pavement tables to make the most of the warm summer months. The breakfast menu is impressive with a selection that includes kippers, bagels and French toast. For light lunches the menu offers burgers, bagettes, toasted sandwiches and plenty of fresh crisp salads. Well known for their excellent ribs, steaks and seafood, it is difficult to pin point specific dishes on the main menu as there are so many good things on offer. It is worth noting however that vegetarians have been well catered for with choices that include a fragrant Thai vegetable curry and Tortilla wraps with a butternut sauce.
