Food is very good an well priced.Place is small and crowded and it was difficult to get a table as it is very popular.We found it very noisy and it was difficult tp have a conversation. Hi Andrea'sThank's you for your review, glad you enjoyed the food. We are busy working on the soundproofing, it can get too loud in the restaurant. All the Best!The Olympia Team

Lekker Kalk Bay

Reviewed By PGoo16

We found the establishment to be on the shabby side but perhaps that is the intent - service and welcome was poor and the food very average poorly constructed fare. Ambience just on a street overlooking a railway line - disappointing offering and the coffee poor.

The Courtyard Cafe

Reviewed By agewebb

Having left another establishment that tried charge for toasting gluten free bread, we had a wonderful breakfast at the courtyard. They even supplied gluten free bread free of charge.Whilst neither of us is vegan, we found a nice selection of options. The food was prepared in a short time, beautifully presented and most tasty.The courtyard also has a most appealing ambience, and friendly waiters.Well worth a visit

Reviewed By Jack H

As new residents in Simon's Town, we've tried all the Cafés in the area. Kelp Cafe comes out clearly on top of the heap. Excellent coffees and exquisite teas, exceptional breakfasts and lunches (don't head out on a hike without taking along one of their signature sandwiches), Vegan and Vegetarian offerings, locally sourced, organic, along with a varying array of unique offerings. And, if that's not enough, the Café also hosts a rigging shop, with all sorts of interesting nautical happenings. Their motto is Pay It Forward, as the sign on the wall attests. They live up to their motto by bringing in inexperienced locals, who soon become creative and productive baristas and wait staff. Keep an eye out for special dessert offerings by the pastry chef Natalia, whose creations are always featured here.

Reviewed By Traveler22101

The food was great bun-less burger and salad, he line fish was perfect, the flap jacks were a bit too wholesome for a teenager and that serving required a tea and milkshake for a complete meal. If you have children they have a great playground build around a tree for climbing.

Cafe Penguino

Reviewed By bradowen27

Just a little covered patio off the side of a souvenir shop but Cafe Penguino offers a full menu of breakfast, snacks, coffee/lattes and so much more. Breakfast portions are very generous and the flavored lattees and coffees are really good. Get their early as seating is limited but dont be fooled by location and size. Grab a quick bit and walk over and see the actual penguins on the beach.

Stopped here on our way back to Camps Bay after a long day of touring. Perfect way to end our evening. The decor is so vintage, just LOVED IT. Nice relaxing music in the background, the waiter was very attentive and nice. Ordered coffee and latte and the barista gentleman did an awesome job. The food was huge portions and tasty. The price range is pretty good as well. Would go here every time I pass thru next year for sure.YAY! Nothing we love more than our annual visitors returning year after year after year....thank you for the music compliment, I take great pride in my play list. Will pass on compliment re the coffee, thank you for such a lovely review.
