Clay Cafe - Hout Bay

This place is fantastic! Excellent kids area with plenty of variety. The clay painting thing is a great idea, creates a pretty unique experience. There is a lot of variety in the clay items and plenty of colours to choose from, so lots of fun there. The place overall is also great. Really nicely laid out and lots of energy. They’ve created a really great vibe there. The staff were also friendly and did a great job. The pizza is really great, but some of the other dishes, while they do look great, are a little bland, and they don’t have many sauce options, but it’s all very nicely prepared

This place is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! This was such a fun time out! Firstly the service is phenomenal- very friendly and professional. We were basically walk-ins on an extremely busy Saturday. It was my daughters birthday and as we are from Joeys we did not know about this place until the last minute so did not make a booking. However the staff went out of their way to make a plan and it ended up being such a wonderful experience. They have an excellent and wide variety of clay objects you can paint. You order food and drinks while you paint. It is so relaxing and so much fun for both adults and children. I will definitely come again! There was even a gentleman who walked people to their cars with umbrellas because of the rain. Make sure you book!

It's one of the most relaxing and calming places I've been to. We ordered from the halaal menu and the food was amazing. The staff were so accommodating, friendly and helpful. Due to the calming nature of The Clay Cafe, while painting, I literally blocked out everything. Will definitely be going back again and will recommend this place to everyone.

We had a lovely time at Clay Cafe in Hout Bay. We came on a Sunday at 12:30pm and it was packed! Make sure to make a reservation upfront, not a place to go to spontaneously. It was very well organized. After we’ve been guided to our table. We received an introduction on the different techniques and our waiter took his time and wasn’t rushed at all. Food was super yummy, recommend the Toasties and Buddha Bowl for sure. Didn’t take long for it to be brought out either. In general I’d probably recommend to plan to be there for 3 hours. We got there at 12:30 and left at 15:15. All three of us chose to pain a mug. Tip: One thing I’d advise is, make a plan what you’d like to do in advance which will save you a lot of time. Pinterest is definitely the best source for it. Looking forward to pick up our items :

It was our first time visiting and we loved everything. We cannot wait to go back. Girls couldn't play outside due to the rain but it looked beautiful. Pizza was great. Painting was so much fun and wine was good. Will definitely be back in the summer months.
