13 Best Bars in Cape Town

"At Planet Bar in the renowned Belmond Mount Nelson Hotel in the Woodstock area, the drinks menu reads like something out of the “Great Gatsby,” with the classics of yore in heavy rotation. The plush interior straddles the line between historic glamour and modern kitsch, making this bar the perfect hideaway were James Bond ever to find himself in the Cape shores. And not just because of the decor: There are martinis made every which way, from shaken to stirred, vodka to gin, dirty to strained." - Seth Shezi
