Long, draped curtains frame the view and the long solid wood bar counter provides plenty of extra seating. \u00a0It\u2019s a bit like hanging out on the deck of a very stylish friend\u2019s home.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The crowd is a really eclectic mix \u2013\u00a0\u00a0from sunburnt tourists to laid-back locals and those dressed to the nines for a night out (it just wouldn\u2019t be Camps Bay without them).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The friendly hostesses will seat you and if you want to appreciate the view there is plenty of seating up front. If you\u2019ve been languishing on the beach all day and want a little respite from the sun, you can be seated a bit further back.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-Camps-Bay-1x56.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55035\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-Camps-Bay-1x56.jpg\" alt=\"Chinchilla Rooftop Cafe &amp; Bar\" width=\"900\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-Camps-Bay-1x56.jpg 900w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-Camps-Bay-1x56-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-Camps-Bay-1x56-320x200.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>The food at\u00a0Chinchilla Rooftop Caf\u00e9 &amp; Bar<\/h4>\n<p>The caf\u00e9 style menu is short and sweet but offers enough variety to suit most. There are casual sandwiches and salads, as well as light bites, mains and desserts. Standouts on the light bites menu were the beef carpaccio with a creamy and punchy mustard drizzle and the simple but tasty Caprese salad.<\/p>\n<p>Mains include a choice of items such as a burger, fried monkfish goujons, mussels, steak bearnaise and tuna Ni\u00e7oise, just to name a few. The food is served caf\u00e9 style \u2013 uncomplicated and unfussy, which suits the casual environment and sand clad feet. (If you\u2019re after a more upmarket dining experience, head downstairs to <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/bilboa-restaurant-camps-bay\/\">Bilboa<\/a>). For dessert, we recommend the cr\u00e8me br\u00fbl\u00e9e, it&#8217;s a knockout.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rir-row\"><div class=\"rir-cols-2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-camps-bay-burger.jpg\" \/><\/div><div class=\"rir-cols-2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Chinchilla-drink-1.jpg\" \/><\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>On Friday, Saturday and Sunday expect live music from resident DJ\u2019s to enhance the beach party vibe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The whole space is designed to create a chilled, laid-back but stylish experience and with the views, it&#8217;s bound to be the backdrop for many amazing summer Instagram pics (be sure to tag #chinchillamoments).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chinchilla-Bar-Camps-Bay.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53830\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chinchilla-Bar-Camps-Bay.jpg\" alt=\"cocktail bars cape town\" width=\"1000\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chinchilla-Bar-Camps-Bay.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chinchilla-Bar-Camps-Bay-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chinchilla-Bar-Camps-Bay-940x526.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Shop 120, Second Floor, The Promenade Building, Victoria Road, Camps Bay |\u00a0027 21 286 5075<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/t.e2ma.net\/click\/v4iaq\/nig7lz\/rxiqvd\">chinchillarooftop.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Feel like staying over?
