Coffee Exchange

The coffee exchange is an artisan coffee roaster and gourmet coffee bar. Accompanied by something sweet, we offer the best cup of coffee in town.

Reviewed By Stephen Andrew Robertson

My first visit to Coffee Exchange was the first day that they opened and immediately I was blown away. The friendly service and excellent coffee was overwhelming. I knew then and there that this was a lasting Enterprise! I have watched them grow leaps and bounds over the past months and wish them the very best in growth and success. I would recommend Coffee Exchange to anyone visiting northern Jozi. I have travelled to a lot of coffee places, but have never been this impressed.

Windmill on Main

We are very blessed to have an amazing venue for our Restaurant! We theme it as Pizza & Pasta but really, this is just a pallet to enable us to showcase our produce and allow customers to try our food. Thin Crispy base Pizzas and imported Italian Durum Wheat Pastas are our mainstay but more to come. We also have full Banting Pizzas and Gluten Free options on both. Our Salads are fantastically tasty due the freshness of the ingredients and our Desserts are made on the premises

Reviewed By Dreamteamsa - Johannesburg

What a great find! You don't expect a place this good in rural Kyalami. Great food, many original dishes and all made with top quality fresh ingredients. Lots of great Banting options with attentive but not fussy service. Highly recommended!

Situated at the Stellenbosch square it was a pleasant surprise to visit this franchise restaurant for the first time.the menu is good and service excellent especially the floor manageres MARIAAN made us feel very welcome!I have been their twice in a week and will go back again.We had pizza ,babychicken and steak it was all very good.The only negative comment i can make is that the wine list is way to expensive for Stellenbosch standards and need urgently to be adressed.I recommend being your own wine (40 corkage).

Heaven's Kitchen

Reviewed By Skuce1977 - Cape Town, South Africa

Definitely the best bunny chows to be found. The current going rate is R75 for a mutton bunny chow. Food is always freshly prepared and really flavoursome. Portions are generous and there's ample meat in the bunny chows. The ladies are always friendly and helpful. Service is always great. Tonight my husband had the fish and chips and that was also really. Worth a visit if you are in search of a decent bunny chow

Life Grand Cafe

Reviewed By DopeyMo - Pretoria, South Africa

Went here for dinner. A big mistake. The place was loud, the chairs smell of beer, the tables were sticky. Should have known then but we decided to stick it out. Order the fresh made juices to start which were wonderful (at least). When the food came, the horro show continued. Order the pork belly and it was rotten, when I informed the waiter she just took it and asked if I was going to order something else, no apology at all. My wife's food was not made the way we requested. We ended up leaving and doubtful to ever come back. Clearly for a different crowd.

Is somewhat losing its clientelle base im afraid. Back in the day,it never mattered what day you came. It was always reasonably in full swing even mid week.
The food is still good i must say. The chicken wings are to die for and the salsa is a must have

RiStretto Midrand

Reviewed By Moonoveraquarius - Johannesburg, South Africa

We came into your establishment for a Cappuccino . We ended up ordering two cups of cappuccino @ R 27.00 each also ordered the Medium Giulietta pizza R 55 00 .Pizza was lovely . Only thing what really put me of my cappuccino, ,when checking the cup out it still had pink lipstick from who ever else ordered out of this cup before . I called the Manager over ,who was very dissapointed . told me he would change it . also took it of my bill,which was decent of him . Hopefully the waiter or the scullery will take note of this for future reference. apart from this ,staff where friendly .if you got kids nice place outside for them to enjoy themself
