"Great place for families, couples or business people grabbing a quick lunch. This venue used to be a haunt for tourists but this new restaurant in the heart of the Mother City is fast becoming a favourite for locals too. The renowned and celebrated local hospitality group, Madame Zingara group with the Midas touch is behind the new The Company’s Garden restaurant. Local designers have contributed to understated furniture and a clean interior. The menu is extensive and the prices have been described a reasonable. A children’s menu is offered and a few vegetarian options are also on offer. It is a tranquil, delightful and a happy escape from the bustling city surrounds." - Tenacity Works
"At first sight, you’d think you were going to get lost in a mystical forest filled to the brim with dated and historical monuments, and you’d be absolutely right! The Company’s Garden in Cape Town is a favourite destination among locals and tourists. The grounds are dotted with lush lawns encapsulated within beds of dense greenery. Ancient trees tower above the gardens, offering shade and scattered light that helps add to the naturalistic feel of the area. It is difficult to not mellow out completely in these gardens as you sip on some well made coffee at the gardens local restaurant. Beauty and relaxation are not the only things this destination has to offer, the gardens have been tailored for fun and education too, spoiling visitors with large wooden sculptures of animals and massive woven birds’ nests to clamber into and swing on. There are several entrances to the gardens, but few offer the aesthetic value of the newly installed “Arch for Arch” entrance situated next to the prominent St Georges Cathedral on the corner of Wale and Adderley street, resembling an incredible geometric tessellation of interlinked wooden rings in amongst the trees." - Yellow Door Collective

"South Africa's premier art museum houses South African, African, British, French, Dutch, and Flemish works. Selections from the permanent collection change regularly to let the museum showcase different pieces, such as those by local luminaries Walter Battiss, Maggie Laubser, Cecil Higgs, Edward Roworth, Sydney Kumalo, Ephraim Ngatane, and Cecil Skotnes. The museum's holdings also include notable historical paintings and sculptures and a large African collection, and there's a wide variety of temporary exhibitions. Art lovers may want to visit the Irma Stern Museum, too. Housed in the celebrated artist's former Rosebank home, it displays paintings and sculptures heavily influenced by Stern's travels in Africa, as well as her own collections."
