Reverie Social Table

Top choice in Cape Town


With just one long wooden table seating up to 18, and the charming chef and host Julia Hattingh in charge, it's easy to see why this place is called Social. Book ahead for her five-course dinners where the dishes are matched with a particular region's wines, or sometimes with local gins.

Daytimes see regular visits from the artists and creatives in the area, who come to lunch on lovely dishes such as rare beef salad with peach achar or a cauliflower and gorgonzola soup.
