The House Of Machines

One of the best bar/pubs in Cape Town. I've been coming here since 2016 now and never been disappointed. The cocktails are not your usual run of the mill that you get everywhere. Weekend live music is always a bonus with a drink. If you are in Cape Town, do visit this gem.

Me and my wife both had burgers. We added onion rings and the beef fat fries chips. Everything was really tasty and the cocktails was different than the usual, but a very good different.

Awesome place with the best old fashioned in town. Small little bar with a few seats outside. Great little spot for cocktails, beer, wine, whiskey and also good live music. Definitely a must visit

Great hangout. Go when it's quieter for the best experience. The old fashioned with their house blen bourbon is awesome. Pair that with a dank hotdog for a great lunchtime break.

Amazing atmosphere, brilliant bar staff!! Crazy good cocktails & coffee is also top class!

Always amazed how affordable this place is. Solid, easy breakfasts, some of the cheapest in the area. Coffee is really good, and it's an amazing spot for remote laptop work. Evenings, not my preference so much, but they make some pretty good cocktails and the beer is great. I go here often!

Definitely one of my favorite dives in Cape Town. The live music is always solid and very entertaining. The staff are all really nice and they do a pretty good job of servicing during peak business hours. The drinks are cold and the food menu is one of my favorite things about the place. Try their hot dogs, they are the best in town.

Great little venue, so much character with amazing hotdogs and merchandise.

Good vibes only. Cape Town's melting pot. Drinks are always on point, food is amazing, the staff are friendly and attentive, their coffee hits the spot, and the music brings it all together. The House has yet to disappoint me.

Been visiting for years. Always a vibe. The atmosphere is great, morning or night. Night is maybe a bit more vibey with their live music. Got to be one of the best old fashioned's in town. The bartenders are super friendly and are seriously good at what they do. Last time we visited, we ordered 2 whiskey sours, an old fashioned and a Run DMC cocktail. The bar was super busy and yet the bartender was friendly and made every drinks perfectly.
