There are few better ways to start a weekend day trip than with breakfast overlooking one of the Cape’s most picturesque harbours.
At Bertha’s Restaurant in Simon’s Town, mornings are designed to be enjoyed at a slower pace, with fresh coffee, generous breakfast plates, and front-row views of the waterfront. [full menu]
Whether guests are heading out to explore Simon’s Town, visit the nearby attractions, or simply enjoy a leisurely morning by the sea, Bertha’s offers something for every appetite.
- Those looking for a light start can opt for the Health Breakfast, featuring layered muesli, yoghurt, fresh fruit salad, and berry coulis, or the popular Avo on Toast with cream cheese and the option of a poached egg.
- For traditionalists, the Classic Breakfast delivers two eggs, crispy bacon, grilled tomato, toast, and a coffee or tea, making it excellent value and a reliable favourite.
- Egg lovers are particularly well catered for. The Eggs Benedict comes topped with ham, bacon, or salmon, while the Full House Omelette packs in bacon, cheddar, mushrooms, tomatoes, and spring onions.
- Guests with bigger appetites can tackle the Captain’s Breakfast, loaded with eggs, bacon, mushrooms, chipolata, chips, and toast, or the hearty Farmers Breakfast, which combines smoky BBQ ribs, scrambled eggs, boerewors, mushrooms, hash browns, grilled tomato, and sweet potato fries.
- For something a little different, the Ribs & UVegg’n Buttie has become one of the menu’s more memorable offerings, pairing smoky BBQ ribs with scrambled eggs on a sesame seed bun.
Positioned right on the harbour, the restaurant offers the kind of views that encourage guests to linger over a second coffee while watching boats bob in the water and Simon’s Town come to life. For Capetonians looking for an easy weekend outing, or visitors exploring the False Bay coastline, Bertha’s Restaurant proves that sometimes the perfect day trip begins with breakfast and a view. Your table, your view, your perfect start to the day.
