The Waiting Room

This deliciously hip rooftop bar above the Café Royale exudes a particular urban cool. Looking out over the bustle of Long Street, The Waiting Room is an attractively designed, chic space, the perfect spot for a sundowner before dinner or for chilling out to live music. The design is striking and stylish, boasting an abundance of blonde wood, a ceiling laced with fairy lights, and furniture full of retro curves and colours. The deck is one of the coolest places in Cape Town for a cocktail and their Saturday club nights are particularly lively.
