Voted Favourite Foreign City by the UK Telegraph in 2004, Cape Town is one of the places you just have to visit before you die.

Situated between Robben Island and Table Mountain in the heart of Cape Town's working harbour, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront has become South Africa's most visited destination. Set against a backdrop of magnificent sea and mountain views, exciting shopping and entertainment venues are intermingled with imaginative office locations, world-class hotels and luxury apartments in the residential marina. We invite you to discover the experience... live, work, shop and play at the V&A Waterfront.

A RESTAURANT WITH A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW

Absolute water’s edge position, in the heart of Simon’s Town, Bertha’s Restaurant and Coffee House fronts the old Town Pier and boasts picturesque views across the yacht harbour and over False Bay.

Relaxed, warm and informal with a cosmopolitan appeal it is a favourite place for visitors to pass a few leisurely hours. Bustling by day you can enjoy a long, lazy lunch; cocktails at sunset out on the terrace or be swept away by the sheer romance of the restaurant at night. The terrace is perfectly positioned for a memorable experience.

Bertha’s extensive menu features South African fare, fresh seafood and an impressive selection of wines. Emphasis is on flavour and presentation, and you’re never left disappointed. Only the freshest and finest ingredients are used in the delectable dishes prepared by a team of skilled chefs.
