What 2 people say about Empire Café
Love this place. I come here often and have even turned it into a half-day office because the coffee's so damn good.
Perfect place to re-energize after a good surf with some simple but good homecooked food. Come in hungry, leave full feasting on Spaghetti Bolognese, a big burger or fresh pampoen soup. Always pleasantly abuzz with guests. Just a Very Friendly place.

About Empire Café
Cuisine: Mediterranean
Originally I’d wanted a casual breakfast/lunch venue linked to surfing and beach life but as time marched on it was obvious the shop needed to open evenings too for a number of reasons – the most important one being demand.
Evenings Empire is open by appointment only.I enjoy catering for the occasional function and we do amazing snack platters too. The platters are original and cost around R300 each. One is enough for approximately 15 people.As a chef the focus of Empire has always been food, and by that I mean yummy, tasty, wholesome food. Health food seems so dessicated to me, like dried fruit vs the original – scary, shriveled and unsettling.
