10 Best Coffee Shops in Cape Town
"This steampunk-inspired, 19th-century artisan coffee roastery in an old warehouse in City Centre has become a tourist destination, thanks to its coffee lab vibe, gilded, industrial-chic interiors, vintage roaster complete with copper dispensers, gauges and hissing contraptions, and nattily dressed staff in full steampunk regalia. Truth is all about single-origin coffees, handpicked by the coffee-obsessed founder of Truth, David Donde. His blends have fabulous names: choose the chocolatey, high-acidity Resurrection blend for a flat white, the DDT (Deep, Dark and Twisted) for an Americano or the rich, nutty Vengeance blend as a pour-over coffee. The food's worth mentioning, too: In-house patisseur Kamal Hamzaoui hits the sweet spot with baba au rum, chocolate éclairs, and lemon meringue pie." - Jane Broughton
