Our Story
Quality, consistency and sustainability tells the story of Bootlegger since the day we first opened our doors in Sea Point, 2013. What began as a humble roastery by 3 best friends, is now part of a rich South African lifestyle.
The brand has expanded to over 80 locations nationwide, and growth is set to continue to over 200 cafés by 2028.
Our Coffee
Specialty coffee, sourced the right way. Our commitment to quality begins at origin. We use only 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified beans, sustainably sourced from renowned coffee-growing regions including Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Tanzania.
At the heart of our operation is our FSSC-certified artisanal roastery - one of the largest micro roasteries in South Africa, where we roast between 350 and 400 tonnes of premium coffee each year.
A smooth, consistent blend with tasting notes of toasted hazelnut, caramel, and dark chocolate. Every step, from farm to cup, reflects our dedication to quality, sustainability, and innovation.
Our Food
We believe great coffee deserves great food. Our all day café menu is crafted with the same care and quality as our coffee - using fresh, seasonal ingredients and locally sourced produce.
From wholesome all-day breakfast and lunch to hearty dinner options, every dish is made to satisfy.
Our food is made to complement your day, your mood, and your lifestyle.
