Newly Refurbished Botany Café

The President Hotel in Cape Town will soon reveal its all-new Botany Café, a newly refurbished contemporary grab-and-go café that promises to bring Bantry Bay a fresh, healthy, and sustainably sourced dining experience. The café will open its doors in July and offer a refreshing poolside deli experience for locals and visitors alike.

Botany Café draws its name from Botany Bay, now known as Bantry Bay, inspired by the botanical garden that was planted in this bay for medicinal herbs in the early 1800s. This historical touch is reflected in the café’s commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients to create delicious, seasonal dishes.

A Culinary Experience Curated with Love

At the heart of Botany Café is the hotel’s head chef and curator of flavours, Sergio Adams and his talented team. With a rich background in culinary arts and locally inspired cuisine, the team brings their passion for creating wholesome meals to Botany Café. Their dedication to sustainability aligns perfectly with the vision for Botany Café.

The idea is to create a memorable culinary experience that will be brought about by engagement with the chefs and a true passion for food. The menu is never static; it evolves daily to showcase the freshest, locally sourced ingredients. This dynamic approach ensures that each visit offers a unique and delightful adventure, reflecting the hotel’s commitment to innovation and quality.

“We see Botany Café becoming a popular poolside deli, offering fresh, sustainably sourced, and healthy meals that cater to everyone’s taste,” says Sergio.

Whether you’re stopping by after a run on the promenade, meeting friends for a quick bite or enjoying a family outing, Botany Café provides the perfect poolside retreat with its fresh, healthy meals.
