“ I am always a fan of the bootleggers chain of restaurants and have visited several. The one in the newly renovated Design Quarter is a great place to visit and unwind in the large open space with indoor and outdoor seating perfect for the joburg weather. They serve from breakfast food to light meals throughout the day. There is ample space and we have always been seated on arrival ”
“ Large restaurant, quiet for a Sunday morning but comfortable and great for chatting or doing remote office. ”
“ Great in the way that all Bootleggers are, and especially well designed and laid out, creating a calming but active atmosphere. Coffee was satisfactory but nothing to write home about. The problem for a digital nomad like me is the poor WiFi connection, which was fast but kept dropping every five minutes, making work and focus a chore. ”
“ Well isn’t this just a vibe … I love ordering new things, so when I saw a Vietnamese coffee on the menu which promised condensed milk and espresso, how could I say no. I wasn’t expecting the ratio to be mostly condensed milk though, talk about SWEET once you stir it up. Still worth it if you love condensed milk, but drink this daily and you’re getting diabetes haha. ”
“ Good Coffee, good service and variety of breakfast options. As a coffee chain, bootlegger offers an excellent selection of food and beverages options. Like their other locations, this one is a trendy place where you can have a meeting, do some work or grab a bite. This location is a bit open due to the setup and is a good pitstop if you’re in the area ”
“ Very beautiful place, looks really cool and blends in well with surrounding aesthetic. The service that we received at this location was really good. Our food was delicious. SN: They have gone cashless, so should you pop in just make sure you have your card to pay. ”
“ Great coffee shop with nice food and excellent service — a great place to study or work. However, the background music is quite loud, which can be a disadvantage for those having online meetings. The WiFi is also not very stable, and there aren’t enough seats with power outlets. ”
