ABOUT US

From South African to the Northern Quarter. We serve up a true taste of the Cape, with some specialities imported plus traditional delicacies made especially for us nearby or in house, including the 'Chakalaka' relish of our name.

Our famous boerewors sausages are handmade to a traditional recipe by our local South African butcher using beef and pork with a special mix of spices. You can try them hot dog “boerie” style in a brioche bun dolloped with a classic tomato and onion relish or our chunky “monkey gland sauce” of mango and Worcestershire, or as bangers and pap, a maize side dish not unlike fluffy mashed potato.

Have it your way

Build your tray your way, pick your own meats/protiens, sides and sauces and build a Saffa tray that will properly fill you up. We did the maths, there's over 3000 combinations, so your tray is as unique as you are.
