If Ikigai - Artisan Coffee Bar & Deli in Swellendam was a suburb in Jozi, I would totally go with contemporary Dainfern. Clean lines, minimalist and upmarket. A Gourmet Milkshake (usually means your milkshake got a bit dressed up and is sticky around the edges) will only set you back R39 and a Gourmet Ciabatta Sandwich almost R80. My gut really thought Mozzarella Ciabatta Sandwich as it had Basil Pesto which I love and Avo, but I felt husband pressured into the Lamb version (to the slaughter). Ag, I was feeling subservient that day. Dion had the best selling Chicken Ciabatta Sandwich. Short story, the Chicken was da bomb and I disliked the Lamb. Not enough Hummus and too much of Pepper. Ek like mos nie Pepper nie. I charmed Dion out of most of his food because he liked the lamb, mos. Milkshake, Coffee and Millionaire Shortbread type biscuit were delicious. Loved. 💟 They also sell all kinds of upmarket decor and fancy gifts. Nicely displayed and priced accordingly. Definitely worth a visit if you into fab coffee en so, and you like Dainfern. 😊 PS. I forgot to ask if they bake their own bread, but the bread was delicious!!

First stop on the N2 where you can enjoy a barista-made coffee in a sleek and modern setting. The two sisters running the show offers friendly and quick service. No more uncomfortable garage coffee stops needed. Best of all, their on-site baker sorts you out with fresh pastries and breads, which can be tasted in their delectable delights. No frozen or day-old breads on this quick stop.
