Great coffee shop with excellent customer service! I absolutely loved their iced mocha with almond milk and vegan carrot cake. It’s SO much better than Starbucks! The chocolate chip cookie was tasty as well. Happiness and the rest of the staff always greeted us with smiles and were very welcoming every time we visited. My boyfriend and I loved the retro decor and vibe of the coffee shop too. Coffee on Orange is a gem in Cape Town that I highly recommend. The shop has indoor and outdoor seating.

During our four day trip we came TWICE and it would’ve been more if they were open on the weekends! Amazing food, coffee, and especially service

Happiness and Stas are amazing! Our food was incredible and such a good price. Definitely our favorite place in Cape Town and we’ll be back everytime. Coming from Los Angeles, we have a lot of great places and this is truly elite.

My favorite coffee in cape town! Amazing coffee/breakfast, really nice vibe, fast internet (if you need to get some work done) and the best staff (it’s impossible to talk to Happiness and not leave with a better vibe)! Strongly recommend.
