About
Swan Café is a French-style café on the corner of Buitenkant and Barrack Street in District Six, Cape Town. The space has a calm atmosphere with outdoor seating and décor that evokes Paris. The menu features crêpes and other French dishes, with vegetarian options and good coffee. Reviewers disagree on the food quality: some found the crêpes excellent, while others reported disappointing dishes with strange flavours and burnt preparation. Staff are noted as friendly and service-minded.
