Rosetta Roastery Cafe (Bree Street)

The place is small but really nice. I tried the Ethiopian V60 coffee — it was very good! The service was great too. They’re currently doing some building work, so it might be a little noisy, but overall it’s a lovely spot in Cape Town.

Visited this place four days in a row, and I can confidently say it's the best coffee spot in Cape Town. It has been around since 2010, founded by three friends who turned their passion for coffee into one of the country’s most respected specialty roasteries. Their single origin beans, roasted in small batches, deliver clean, rich flavor profiles that really stand out. The food is fresh and well thought out, and the vibe is relaxed but stylish perfect for coffee lovers looking for something genuine. After trying several cafés around the city, most felt too commercial. Rosetta still feels authentic and focused on quality. If you’re in town, it’s a must try.

The coffee at Rosetta was nice, well made and the staff was friendly Points to improve were that it took awhile to do the pour over, they did my partner’s first and then maybe 10 min after did mine. We had the pistachios and cardamom bun that were right out of the oven and the taste was disappointingly overpowering the coffee

They made our flat whites pretty quickly, and they were good. They are on the pricier side (around R40 to 45 min a cup of coffee). Definitely along the lines of premium coffee. If you are a heavy coffee fanatic, this is your type of place. They have coffee beans from all over the world and have different methods to get you your coffee fix. Place is kinda small inside, but the atmosphere is quiant.

beautiful location that made me feel like the main character. I’ve given the food a 4 because I literally only had one drink there so I can’t say too much but the baked goods on display looked super fresh and delightful. Love this interesting space and the taisho iced coffee was delicious. Overall very considered and premium establishment.

Good espresso and very fine cheesecake. The café is tastefully decorated and the service is good too. Definitely recommendable.

GREAT coffee and quality food. It’s pricey but some things are worth it, as the Banana Bread (don’t miss out on this!). They have a variety of coffee beans to sell and to make for you, quality specialty origins.

Dropped by for a quick coffee and had a delightful experience. The folks behind the bar know their coffees and take their craft seriously. I tried the progressive option for my espresso and was a little disappointed. They immediately offered to remake the coffee and adjusted the extraction. Extracting light roasts is difficult and they did well the second time round. The espresso tonic (can’t recall if that was the name) was a super cool concept that I’d never tried before. Be try tasty as well. The ambiance was relaxed and the bar beautiful. Highly recommend a visit here if you like coffee.
