Baobab is a famous cafe & restaurant in South Africa. Since opening in 2008, Baobab has grown to twice its original size and created one of Wellington’s largest outdoor dining spaces. It has become a favorite local hub for the community, a place to relax & forget about how busy the outside world can be while sipping on a premium blend of Ethiopian espresso or a pint of local boutique craft beer in its tranquil courtyard. Its unique dining area is the main reason for its popularity. The staff is well-mannered and friendly.
Baobab’s menu is always prepared with fresh ingredients, and that’s the secret to the good taste of its items. The menu is budget-friendly and includes starters, wraps, salads, dikgogo, mzansi’s favorites, sauces, ribs, beverages, and much more. Baobab has become a go-to cafe and grill restaurant in South Africa.
