Don't go here ever... So that I can get a table in the future.
Delicious, great service, will definitely be back!
Hi Sam, thank you so much for your great review. I am pleased to hear you had a great time. We cant wait to cook for you again. Judi and the Pilcrow chefs
Unique dining experience at P & C. Great atmosphere, best service and delicious food
Hi Wayne, Thank you for your brilliant review. It was lovely having you dine with us. Looking forward to seeing you in the near future again. Judi & the Pilcrow Chefs
Sweet friendly spot in a pretty part of town. Food was prompt, service excellent. For dog lovers it’s wonderful. They even have a separate menu for them. Loved the chocolate fondant dessert. Will return.
A real hidden gem. A very interesting menu with options for all palates. I had difficulties deciding seeing there were so many options that sounded good. All dishes I ordered were great. A good and reasonably priced wine list as well

Pilcrow & Cleaver is the delicious brainchild of Chef Judi Fourie; a Cape Town restaurant fierce with bold modern flavours.
With no service staff, and no doors, windows or walls to our professional kitchen, Pilcrow & Cleaver puts you in direct contact with the chefs and cooks that make your food. We invite you to smell and anticipate modern European daily inspired menus of small plates, mains and desserts. Swirl a glass of proudly South African wine over dinner or unwind after work at our separate bar section. Browse our retail shelf’s homemade delicacies and contemplate a recipe in our bespoke cookbook collection. Or talk to us as we prepare homemade flavours right in front of you. We are pet-friendly, follow the no-tipping movement, the first restaurant in Cape Town to serve Father Coffee and during the COVID-19 lockdown we are still open for business.
Hi, I'm Chef Judi
And welcome to Pilcrow & Cleaver, a new paragraph with a different twist, something that I have dreamt about and cooked into realisation for the last 15 years.
The passion for food started to pulsate through my veins from a very young age and for the last decade I have been on a culinary journey of exploration around the world. My travels have inspired me to find new dishes, experience unique flavours and taste different food to bring it all together and share it with you from my kitchen at Pilcrow & Cleaver, right here, in the vibrant heart of Cape Town.
Food is an experiment-experience that evokes emotion. It is not perfection, it’s about expression. Cooking is an art, and the kitchen is my canvas and I want you to join me as a create dishes with a modern flair; highlighting the different unique flavours of each and every ingredient.
Let’s eat.
Hi Kate, Your review made me laugh. There will always be a table for you. Thanks for the great review, cant wait to host you again!
