 Haarlem & Hope 
The Company's Garden Restaurant 
opening
24th November 2014

Open Monday – Sunday: 7:30am – 5pm 


Nestled in the heart of the historical Company’s Garden is Haarlem & Hope, a restaurant built for families, tourists and locals to enjoy. This daytime eatery offers a shady haven with a large outdoor seating area, allowing one to take in the lush green gardens that surround it, as well as a chic interior made from all natural elements such as stone, wood, slate and glass. This serene setting makes one forget they are conveniently positioned right in the buzzing Cape Town city centre, just a stone’s throw away from major city attractions. The design elements that have gone into the creation of Haarlem & Hope are inspired by nature, with a specially designed kids play area that was built to mimic the plant life that surrounds it, while also acknowledging elements of the rich history of the Cape.


The menu offers a large selection of breakfasts, such as the “Simon van der Stel” breakfast, sandwiches and wraps, including a “Bobotie wrap”, fresh juices, salads and light meals, as well as some more hearty traditional South African dishes, such as “Karoo Lamb Chops”. A wide range of artisan teas and coffee, with accompanying tea time delights, are also available, as well as an extensive wine list and fully stocked bar.

Haarlem & Hope - The Company's Garden Restaurant


Hold your breath…for MadameZingara’s latest magical creation of an extraordinary Restaurant.
Haarlem & Hope - The Company's Garden Restaurant is just one of various whimsical dining out offers the grand dame has in her repertory. Actually it’s the sixth addition to Madame Zingara’s collection of restaurants in Cape Town.
Douse in the spectacular experience to sit down for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea and engage with the surroundings in the old Company’s Garden.
The hospitality group plans to transform the Garden Tea Room into a community space where local and international guests can dine together and that for reasonably prices.
The makeover is part of the park’s revitalisation project, and the new eatery opens at the 24th of November.
See you soon at Haarlem & Hope!
