    The Grand Café forms part of the Grand chain of restaurants, two of which can be found in Cape Town (Camps Bay and Granger Bay), and one of which is in Plettenberg Bay. There’s a definite brand-consciousness that flows between the three; they all embrace a sense of “boho-chic” opulence, giving careful attention to the décor and the ambiance, as well as a very considered choice in the Café del Mar-style music playing the background. The Grand is very trendy, and unapologetically so.

    The restaurant is divided into two seating areas: the inside is painted in luxurious hues of deep purple and black, with candelabras, a piano and ballet slippers hanging from the chandeliers; the outside showcases a more subtle, eclectic mix of pinks and natural woods. The patio itself hosts stunning views over the bay and leads onto a courtyard with a charming fountain. By day it’s a vibrant occasion, and by night it’s a more romantic affair.

    The menu is seasonal; in summer you’ll find lighter dishes taking centre stage with an emphasis on fresh ingredients and salads, whilst richer, slow-cooked dishes are the name of the game in winter. Certain specials remain highlights of the menu throughout the year, including the kingklip tagliata, steak béarnaise, sugared salmon, and bouillabaisse.

    Service is relaxed, but on point. I’d recommend it for light lunches on the patio in summer and candlelit dinners all year round.
