Busy yet cozy little cafe with small menu but very focused in delivering excellent tasty food, friendly and efficient service at affordable price. A perfect little cafe for runners, walkers, cyclists or just social with your friends in the neighbourhood overlooking the beautiful Melkbosstrand Highly recommended

Inviting coffee shop. Open sides ideal for warmer winter days Food is an interesting mix, I would love to have had anchovies on my Soul ful Ceaser that they run out of. The Lustful Lamb was very tasty. Mexican was very tasty not to hot even though I bite throut a chilly, still very tasty. The Meditrean is defnitly your vegan option, with lovely fresh veggies / leaves.

Simple Bru Coffee Co. in Melkbosstrand is an absolute gem for specialty coffee enthusiasts and food lovers alike. Our group ordered a variety of items, including the breakfast bagel, chicken sandwich, iced Vietnamese coffee, and breakfast wrap. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, showcasing the care and quality that goes into their menu. The iced Vietnamese coffee, in particular, stood out as a refreshing treat, perfectly balanced and satisfying. The service was another highlight of our visit. The staff were friendly, attentive, and efficient, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Despite it being a busy morning, the waiting time for our order was minimal, and everything arrived promptly. It’s clear that the team values providing not only great food and coffee but also an exceptional customer experience. Another major plus was the convenience of the location. Parking was easy to find, and the café’s relaxed, welcoming atmosphere made it a perfect spot to start the day. Whether you’re popping in for a quick coffee or sitting down for a leisurely breakfast or lunch, Simple Bru Coffee Co. delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended for anyone in the Melkbos area!

A beautiful spot for rainy and sunny mornings. Well priced. The breakfast buns were delicious and simple. The flat whites were great! Great service and a very friendly and welcoming team works there. When next doing the Melkbosstrand parkrun I will be back! Simple Bru is also fog friendly.
