One of the oldest restaurants on the V&A Waterfront, Quay Four Seafood Restaurant & bar is now a well-known landmark with a world-famous bar and a somewhat more refined menu upstairs.

The renowned Quay Four Tavern in Cape Town is where seagulls frolic joyfully in the salty air and shiny seals play hide-and-seek. The world-famous basement tavern’s terrace, one of the oldest eateries on the V&A Waterfront and now a famous icon, is bustling with locals and tourists almost every day of the year.

At the tastefully decorated Quay Four Upstairs, the focus is on fresh, delectable fish. Select from a variety of delectable seafood platters or the delicious catch of the day, all of which are expertly cooked shellfish meals. Along with a delectable feast of venison, red meat, and poultry dishes, the à la carte menu is also available.

Besides breakfast, grills, seafood, starters, salads, poultry, coffees, desserts, burgers, kiddies meals, and deluxe milkshakes, Quay Four Restaurant also offers a wide range of wines to enhance the taste of your meals.

The wines include Chenin blanc, champagne, sparkling, MCC, sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, pinotage, red blends, dry white blends, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, shiraz, and pinot noir.
