Situated on the corner of Bree and Orphan Street in the CBD area of Cape Town, Orphanage plays true to its quirky name. From one of the ceilings hang different keys, staff wear hats that would look right at home on the stage of an Oliver production. Patrons can purchase a cocktail called ‘More Tea Vicar?’ Made with Finlandia vanilla, rooibos syrup, cranberry and lemon, served in a tea cup and saucer, R15.00 of the total price goes to the St Francis Children’s Home to care for orphan boys.
Orphanage is only a short walk up from Long Street, their cocktail mixologists make an array of unusual drinks, and the vibe welcomes all kinds of characters. If the drinks menu seems too overwhelming and you’d like something fresh, try the Gentlemen’s Berry Relish, and of course it comes without saying you really should try the ‘More Tea Vicar?’
Check out Orphanage’s website at http://www.theorphanage.co.za/ and you’ll find an interesting set of ‘rules’ to read up on. As the new kid on the block Orphanage has proved its worth; they have a steady flow of regulars and inquisitive folk are always popping in to see what everyone’s talking about. Become a regular, try it out for yourself, or ignore it. Do as you please, but if you do go make sure you don’t request a song from the DJ…
