OVERVIEW
Bootlegger is a Cape Town-based Coffee Company that has gone from three best friends’ ideas to a nationwide success with over 24 locations in only a few years. It’s simple to understand why South Africans enjoy Bootlegger Coffee Company, with a wonderful menu, reasonable rates, and a track record of healthy and sustainable goods.
The restaurant is open Monday through Friday from 06:30 am to 6 pm, at weekends and public holidays from 07:30 am to 6 pm, and they close at 7 pm during the Aquarium’s extended hours (except on 25 December when both the Aquarium and the restaurant will close at 6 pm). This makes getting an early meal during extended hours quite convenient and tasty.
HISTORY
Pieter Bloem, De Waal Basson, and Antonie Basson founded the Bootlegger Coffee Company in 2012. The brand has expanded to include many businesses around Cape Town and Johannesburg, and it is still growing. A carefully chosen lyric from an AC/DC song is put on the wall in neon lights at each store. This homage to excellent music and rhythm is responsible for much of the brand’s attitude and personality.
