The Bungalow is a restaurant on the Clifton beachfront, set between the Twelve Apostles and Lion’s Head with views of the Atlantic Ocean. You eat Mediterranean-style dishes here, with a menu that includes seafood and cocktails. The terrace overlooks the water, and live DJs often play during sunset.

The location is the draw: it’s the only restaurant along the Clifton reserve, making it a direct stop after the beach. The building stands alone, with no immediate neighbors, so the ocean is the main backdrop. The kitchen serves from midday until late, and the space works for both meals and drinks.

The Bungalow is part of the Kove Collection, a group of hospitality spots in Cape Town. It sits on Victoria Road, close to Clifton’s beaches, with the Glen Country Club nearby. The restaurant has been a fixture here for years, and the view remains the reason people come.
