About

RAW Espresso Bar is a small, brick-lined café in Cape Town's city centre serving espresso drinks and pastries including croissants, muffins and pain au chocolat. The space is simple and comfortable with tasteful ambient music and a relaxed, hip atmosphere, though reviewers note it is cramped for its popularity. Staff are friendly and attentive. The café is busy throughout the day with regular visitors.

The café closes by mid-afternoon on weekdays and does not open weekends. Several reviewers mention it suits workers and those needing a morning caffeine fix, though no details are given about wifi, outlets or working arrangements.
