As you step into Scheckter’s Raw, you’re greeted by a large smiling Buddha and plants decorating every nook. This already gets two ticks from me! Along with the raw timber and rustic look, it feels as though you might have been transported to a café in Bali or the likes. Vibrant and buzzing, this popular spot attracts a mix of clients all in search of healthy plant based goodness.

Their menu boasts a fantastic variety of vegan dishes, from breakfasts and light bites to more substantial, hearty dishes. I’ve been told that their Vegan Burger, Trump Dog and Waffles are what keeps clients coming back time and again. They make their own almond milk so ordering a flat white here is such a treat. And if you’re feeling decadent, I recommend you pair it with their take on the Twix bar – pure indulgence!

They have a selection of ready-made savoury and sweet bites as well as pressed juices which is great if you’re on the go.
You’ll find this corner café on Regent Road towards the far end of Sea Point.
