By mid-morning, Café Extrablatt is already buzzing, kids drift between the play corner and chalkboards, while parents settle in with another coffee (or something stronger). Every Sunday, this Green Point café serves a brunch buffet with warm waffles, omelettes, pastries and bacon. And even better for parents, kids under 10 eat for half price.

You’ll find Café Extrablatt in the green and white building by the DHL Stadium roundabout.
The venue is spread over two floors, with a family-friendly area downstairs and a bar and shisha lounge upstairs. Sunlight fills the café, giving it a warm, relaxed feel, and there’s plenty of free parking across the street.

Café Extrablatt’s brunch buffet is packed with options the whole family will enjoy.
There’s cereals, pastries, meats, cheeses, salads, omelettes and even warm waffles. And there’s a special item added every week. Brunch is from 9am to 2pm, so there’s no reason to rush.

At the back of the café is the colourful kids’ corner, with a punchy superhero mural. Kids can get their Picasso on and draw on the blackboards with chalk, or play with the available toys or read books.
And for adults, there's weekday happy hour specials and a shisha lounge at Café Extrablatt.
