Shimmi Cafe is a restaurant and bar where leisure meets mystique. Inside their unassuming shell, in the glow of candlelight – that’s where the magic happens; where food awakens the senses and drinks keep them enticed.

Shimmi Cafe is the playground of celebration and the home of Johannesburg’s most seductive house music. Camouflaged in an office building, we are a Gem in the busy city and befriended by many well known corporate suitors who enjoy their relaxing ambience, friendly staff and above all good wholesome food.

Using high-quality ingredients that are locally sourced, they’ve crafted meals that blend the tastes of multiple ethnic groups. Their chefs are lovers of sharp flavor; fragrant herbs and rich spices. Shimmi Café’s range of interesting dishes creates dinners that are best shared.
