Inside SeaBreeze
Inspired by our sister venues in the North East of Scotland, our newly refurbished SugarBird Wine Bar is a chic and elegant space within the restaurant, offering a curated selection of South African wines and the region’s sparkling gem, Cap Classique.
Not in the mood for a full bottle? As South Africa’s first venue to feature an innovative Coravin system, we keep our sparkling wines impeccably fresh — so you can enjoy the finest selection of Cap Classique by the flute in the country.
Welcome to SeaBreeze
Nestled in the heart of Cape Town’s thriving CBD, our double-fronted heritage building — with its striking aqua-blue exterior and views of Table Mountain — offers a refreshing take on the local seafood bistro.
Inside, relax beside the oyster and SugarBird wine bars, where we shuck the freshest oysters from Saldanha Bay and Knysna. Outside, our bustling terrace hosts a ten-metre high-top table for sociable al fresco dining.
Meet our Chef Patron
“My approach is to let the produce speak for itself by choosing quality, preparing carefully, and cooking accurately. Simplicity and precision are key to creating memorable dishes.”
Trained from the age of 15 in Montpellier and at London’s five-star Athenaeum Hotel, Alex went on to open Hornblower’s seafood restaurant near Aberdeen, win the Cullen Skink World Championship and run the main restaurant at the Balmoral Castle Estate. Today he and his wife Ruth run SeaBreeze with the same values: respect for ingredients and a commitment to sustainability.
