"The Motherland has a Sweet Dictator Situated in a quiet corner of the Zone in Rosebank, this quaint little coffee shop has some tall orders on its menu. With a size called "The Mother Cuppa" and a drink called the Dictator, Motherland Coffee Co.'s range of fair trade based beverages are sure to leave your mouth wanting more. The particular drink in the photo above is the Dictator — a layering of condensed milk, double espresso and whipped cream topped off with chocolate shavings. While your taste buds are coming to grips with the drink you've ordered, you can enjoy some memes or youtube clips on your laptop courtesy of the free wi-fi."
I absolutely love Motherland. The vibe is as amazing as the coffee. My standard order is a tall hazelnut flavoured soy milk latte and it always tastes like heaven. They also have an amazingly decadent brownie with white and milk chocolate pieces which is a definite must-have. The service is world class and the staff are consistently friendly and helpful.

I'm a big fan of good lattes and motherland, is probably one of the best places for it. I live in Dubai and frequently travel to Joburg and whenever I visit, love going to motherland for breakfast for a cuppa Latte and mini quiches which are very good too. Staff is always friendly and happy!

Good coffee. Good service. This is a small location but has atmosphere. Free WiFi is available. There is couch seating, table seating as well as a long table with bar chairs. There is some outdoor seating too. Just 5 minutes walk from the Rosebank Gautrain station.

So this place was listed as one of the authentic coffee places to visit and I wanted to give it a shot. I tried the Ethiopian origin cappucino and loved the flavor. Of course the accompaniments was just as good!!!

Great coffee. Lovely african coffee from the horn of Africa to the bottom. The grounded coffee bags was great as well when I made it at home. Great customer service. As soon as they spot you in the door, they greet politely and get your order. Far better than your Starbucks and other coffee places. Crowd seemed vibrant. People from all platforms. The owner should try and source some local coffee though. Maybe i missed it. Next tym

Great vibe, friendly barristers and great coffee. One of the best spots to work on a paper or do research or do work or meet with friends or read a book, you get the drift. It is cosy and has an intimate feel. Not many people know about this coffee shop in the corner but the people that do are like a community. You make good connections and friendships at this coffee shop. Plus, the music is good.
