Cafe Review: The Creamery

Recently, hidden café’s or petite coffee boutiques have really intrigued me. My latest obsession has to be “The Creamery” that has opened up in Dean Street, Newlands. It's perfect on a warm Sunday afternoon before we all head right into Monday morning madness. The 'calm before the storm', I say.

The Creamery specialises in handmade ice-cream and desserts.  I tried out the waffle with birthday cake ice-cream, chocolate espresso dust, topped with chocolate sauce. It was like heaven melting in my mouth!

What really blew me away were the extraordinary different flavoured hand-made ice-creams that they offered. The flavours are so precise to the label; Peanut Butter, Birthday Cake (my favourite), Chocolate, Salted Caramel, Choc Chip, Pistachio, Farm Cream, Rosetta Roastery Coffee, Naartjie Chocolate Chip and Lemon Curd Swirl. The prices are fairly decent, but definitely worth every penny (Single scoop R18, Double R28).

In addition to this, they offer Sundaes, various seasonal desserts and of course your tea and coffee.

You may find this brand a lil familiar. After only 18 months since launching their brand, The Creamery made an appearance on the second season of Masterchef SA as the nation's best artisanal ice-cream producer! So big ups on them for the incredible achievement!

I love the turquoise colour palette of this place and the boutique look and feel of it. Do pop in and give it a try be it for breakfast or a late night craving. For those sweet tooth lovers, it's pretty darn good!

Feroza Petersen: “The service was warm and friendly. It appeals to the young and trendy generations. Their ice-cream was absolutely divine and the flavours were to die for! It comes highly recommended for both adults and kids.”
