If there’s one place in Cape Town that knows how to turn weekdays into something worth celebrating, it’s Mint Restaurant & Wood-Fired Grill.
Their daily specials are the kind of delicious, no-decision-required solutions every hungry local dreams of — and each dish comes with a complimentary 500ml draught beer or glass of house wine. Yes, you read that right… dinner and a drink for R250.
Whether you’re escaping the office, avoiding your stove, or simply treating yourself (again), Mint has lined up five mouth-watering reasons to plan your week around their dining room.
MONDAY — Butter Chicken & Naan
Start the week like someone who absolutely has things under control. Their charred chicken fillet arrives swimming in a mild tomato emulsion, ready to be scooped up with naan, rice, or raita. A comfort-food hug disguised as a weeknight special.
TUESDAY — Ship Catch Seafood Tagliatelle
Perfect for patrons who believe every Tuesday should feel like a seaside holiday. Expect mussels, prawns, calamari, and fish tangled in silky homemade tagliatelle and shellfish sauce. It’s creamy, ocean-kissed joy in a bowl.
WEDNESDAY — Burger Fiesta
Midweek slump? Not on Mint’s watch. Choose from a Taj beef burger, Sriracha chicken, lamb tombik, or veggie burger — each stacked, saucy, and ready to restore your will to finish the week.
THURSDAY — West Coast Hake & Chips
Golden, crispy, and downright nostalgic. This battered hake and chips combo with tartar sauce is for those who believe good things come deep-fried and served with a cold draught.
FRIDAY — Pizza Mare Mia
End the week in full celebration mode with a wood-fired beauty topped with squid, mussels, prawns, fish, anchovies, and buffalo mozzarella. A maritime masterpiece and the perfect excuse to toast to the weekend.
Whether you’re in need of a delicious pick-me-up, a no-fuss dinner plan, or simply a great deal, Mint’s daily specials are serving up unbeatable flavour from Monday to Friday. One thing’s certain: your taste buds will be making reservations of their own.
