Casual fish and chips restaurant with huge view of Chapman's Peak and the bay. Parking can be tricky on the weekend, but worth it for the view and people watching.

Parks & Nature

The cable car doesn't run if weather is threatening so on your first wind-free day in Cape Town, head to Table Mountain. You can take the cable car up (5 minutes in a rotating funicular) or you can hike up (2.5 hours). Because it's always chillier up there, bring a wind jacket at least. http://www.tablemountain.net/content/page/quick-tips

There is no wrong time of year to see Kirstenbosch. Grab a map before you enter, or print this one: http://www.sanbi.org/sites/default/files/documents/documents/kirstenbosch-garden-map-2016.pdf Allow two hours to walk around, and if the weather is good, bring a picnic. The Boomslang boardwalk is a new addition. No need to buy tickets in advance unless for the summer concerts on Sunday evenings, Nov–April (http://www.sanbi.org/events/kirstenbosch-summer-sunset-concerts-kirstenbosch-nbg).
