Anthony's Golden Cup Coffee Shop

Mr. Anthony Swartz has been in the coffee business since 1963 and is a master at roasting and blending only the finest Arabica beans from 27 different countries. Having contributed to leading international travel magazines, I can confidently say that this may be the best authentic coffee experience in Cape Town. The venue has recently undergone renovations as well.

I have rarely tasted a better cup of coffee. Every time, it’s exceptional—truly a gold standard. The roasting technique really makes a difference. There are no fancy methods involved, just a simple cup of freshly brewed coffee made with paper filters! With my past experience using a Saeco Magic machine, I consistently enjoy a rich and full-flavored coffee. Well done, Anthony!

A true gem in Central Cape Town. Excellent traditional coffee blends. Anthony himself is fantastic. A great experience overall!

Some say this is the best coffee in Cape Town. I say it's the best coffee in Africa. the continent....yes, it's so good. Don't miss this hidden gem.

If you’re looking for an understated, authentic coffee shop that is all about the enjoyment of the beverage, Anthony’s Golden Cup is it! It’s really a little treasure of a place, with a variety of coffee beans to purchase for home use. I love that they serve filter coffee (they also do espresso based drinks), as I find very few places have that option these days. Each cup is made with love and if you’re lucky, you’ll find the legendary Anthony himself there too!
