Jessy's Waffles

I’ve heard only good things about this plant-based waffle spot so was excited to try it. I ordered the La Gringa 2.0 and my waiter suggested I add vegan cheese to the base of my savoury waffle -best decision ever. It’s gluten-free and has black beans, guacamole, corn, salsa and spicy mayo. It was beyond delicious. I don’t know how I’m going to order anything else off the menu now. Highly recommended. Excellent service. Chilled vibe. Sit outside!

Probably the best waffles in Cape Town. Great toppings, and the cheesy bases for the savoury waffles are particularly revolutionary - and delicious. The prices are reasonable. The waffles are very filling, so consider a half portion. They're best eaten fresh - they're not as good when kept for later. Waiting staff are always friendly, and service was good two out of the three times I've been there. Once, when very busy, our order was forgotten; the waiters were very apologetic and solved the problem. No designated parking, but it's usually fairly easy to find parking nearby. They're in a relaxed part of Gardens, so consider walking if you're nearby.

The turmeric & ginger and beetroot lattes were exceptional! We shared a banana and maple syrup flapjack stack which was super tasty but way to rich for our liking. The waffles looked amazing amazing! (Yes we were eyeing everyone else's food.) The lattes were quick to arrive but the food took quite a while. Not a bad thing. Quality takes time. The service was quite impersonal which dampened the experience for us. Also a peak into the kitchen while paying revealed quite a mess. On a busy weekend I'd understand, but lunchtime Friday when it wasn't that busy? Definitely given it a try though. It's a wonderfully unique experience plus it's plant-based. :)
