Lazari

Quaint little gem a few meters away from Gardens Centre. The food is delicious (very copious... I couldn't finish it, but enjoyed it later at home!) Great service, friendly waitress and owners. The decor creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The coffee was great too. I'll come back, that's for sure!

Lazari – A little café with a big heart Lazari is one of those places that makes you feel instantly welcome – whether you're a local or just passing by. This morning, I met my sportgrouo friends there for a wholesome vegan breakfast: gluten-free Bircher muesli with dry coconut, blueberries and apples, a fresh carrot juice, a fiery ginger shot, and a warm, comforting cup of mesquite – now my favourite caffeine-free café-style drink. Usually, I’m not vegan, but with a retreat coming up tomorrow, I wanted to skip animal products – and this breakfast was just perfect to feel light and a little detoxed. And I normally don’t like almond milk, but here it was surprisingly delicious – smooth and satisfying. With its mix of small, cosy tables and larger ones for lively gatherings, Lazari offers space for connection and calm alike. And at the heart of it all is Linda, Michelle and her team who brings soul and sparkle to this beloved neighbourhood spot. I’ll definitely be back – to savour more flavours, support this sweet buzzing hub, and soak in the friendly, feel-good vibe.

Beautiful place for a quick coffee. Drinks are on the pricy side (that's just Cape Town I guess). Waiter was kind and very helpful with special requests - only one vegan option for both breakfast and lunch and they were happy to make the falafel salad for me before lunchtime. The falafels were decent and it had a nice amount of basil. Never thought I would 'complain' about too much sauce, but both the falafel salad and the eggs Benny was overly sauced. The cappuccino was quite small considering oat milk is a R15 surcharge. Great location and easy to find parking~

Lazari is an absolute gem. Owner Linda and her team are amazing hosts and have created a very special experience for their growing loyal patrons. Fabulous food, artisanal coffees and spectacular views of Devils Peak and Lion’s Head all make for a wonderful atmosphere. Lazari is one of those rare Independent cafes that offer a must visit destination.

People use the term "gem" so often, but I have to say that those using the term for Lazari are absolutely spot on! Everything good thing I'd read is true. As a solo diner, the welcome I get is a big factor, and at Lazari it was so warm and friendly, and the experience stayed that way throughout. Love the cosy setup, the decor, the view, and of course the excellent coffee (served hot, yay!) and delicious food. I had the Vegan Shashuka (I'm not vegan, I just don't eat eggs I can see) and it was a big skillet of warm, comforting, hearty deliciousness. What a happy all-round experience!

Went with best friend for a lunch date. What a lovely cafe!!!!! Great atmosphere, beautiful view of the mountains and nice food. Cute interior and design, very aesthetic. Lovely experience overall, do stop by for a coffee break if you in the area. See you next time. J

What a gem of a spot. The best coffee, delicious breakfast, friendly neighborly atmosphere- where everyone knows your name vibe. The owner is always there, and my waiter Jock was super friendly and efficient. Def will be back

Best Coffee, amazing food! Great warm, friendly vibe and fantastic service. Management and staff are excellent and always go out of their way to provide a wonderful experience and always make me feel so welcome. It’s my ‘local’ …I cannot rate it highly enough!
