Giant's Cup Cafe and Crafts (Cafe)

The Giants Cup Cafe on the Sani Pass Road is a relaxed Drakensberg Mountain family Café. Located deep in the mountains in an indigenous garden, it offers lovely views, a licensed Restaurant with Bar, a Paint on Clay daily workshop, Simbergclay ceramics made on site, a Handcrafts Shop, a family Nature Trail with booklet, an Indigenous Plant Sales Greenhouse and opportunities to watch cows being hand-milked and calves bottle fed.

The fully licensed Cafe is open daily from 7.30 am to 8 pm, a mere 50 metres from Sani Lodge and Self-catering Cottages  offering hearty breakfasts (cooked or health), lunches (savoury pancakes, toasted sandwiches, cheese platter, soup), and three course dinners (starter, main and dessert).

Enjoy mid-morning cappuccinos made from Fair Trade organic coffee beans paired with signature baked cheesecake using our farm cream cheese; and mid-afternoon tea with scones dressed in butter, our organic fruit jams, and farm cream or rich chocolate cake (weekends only).

Pair organic South African wines with your meals or enjoy a cocktail from the Phuzabooza bar before your dinner. As devotees of self-sufficiency, we aim to provide home cooked meals using our seasonal organic home-grown vegetables, fruits and organic dairy produce (cheese, feta, halloumi, cream cheese, yoghurt, butter, icecream). The cheese platter served with our dairy produce is highly recommended.

‘Paint on Clay’ space is available for the whole family! Come and enjoy this wonderful activity whilst you enjoy a delicious Cappuccino paired with our signature cheesecake or a luncheon with local wines.

Stunning views with fresh mountain air and a Nature Trail for the whole family will invigorate and recharge one’s mind and body.

The shop sells organic dairy produce made onsite from fresh Jersey cow milk, organic coffee, and chocolate as well as gifts for every occasion.

An indigenous plant greenhouse offers dozens of beautiful, environmentally friendly, and water-wise plants for your garden to attract birds.

Sani Lodge guests can enjoy the convenience of quality meals on their doorstep.

Well behaved dogs on a leash and remaining outdoors, are welcome.
