WHAT'S IN THE AREA - East City

Zonnebloem, the East side of Cape Town's CBD, is increasingly becoming the residential location of choice for young professionals and students as it is so conveniently located. The area includes some of the city’s trendiest eatery and party locations, such as The Harrington Bar, Surfa Rosa, the District, New York Bagel Deli, the old classics like Dias Tavern, Perseverance Tavern and the historic Kimberly Hotel.

Cape Town’s strong coffee culture is also staking it’s claim in the area with major role players such as the iconic Truth, Bootleggers and New York Bagel now attracting the city’s coffee-lovers in droves.

HARRINGTON STREET

What was formerly an industrial-commercial precinct on the outskirts of the CBD, Cape Town’s East City has morphed into a cultishly cool creative hub with cutting-edge galleries, chic cafés and grungy dive bars.
