    A rustic coffee shop set in a historic home or building, the cappuccino was outstanding, the service was great, and the breakfast bun was tasty. It's definitely a nice stop if visiting Knysna.

    Absolutely loved this place! Had the best cafe mocha I've ever had (in my entire life), and a chocolate croissant and they were absolutely amazing! So good that we had to go again the next day! There is a touristy boutique attached to this cafe with beautiful artwork (and at reasonable prices). But my absolute favourite part was the friendly staff, everyone was welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere here is absolutely amazing and it is definitely one of my most favourite coffee shops in the world!! Highly HIGHLY recommend!!!

    Great selection on the menu and good coffee. The coffee beans can also be bought. My favourite lunch option is their chicken mayo toastie. They recently got a new barista that makes incredible coffee art - exactly what your Instagram/ Facebook feed needs. The waitresses are lovely and it's a quiet hideaway while you watch the main road traffic.

    The food is good, the location directly on main Street really bad. It's very loud and not comfortable.

    What a wonderful experience!! Exceptionally friendly staff, we arrived just as the kitchen was closing and they had no trouble accommodating us. Food was delicious, cakes even better and the charm of the hand craft African store made the atmosphere inviting. Highly recommend and will definitely come back🫢🏻

  • 5/5 Adrienne B. 11 months ago on Google
    Such a lovely restaurant with professional friendly staff. The health breakfast of toasted muesli, double cream yoghurt, fresh frut and honey was absolutely wonderful. There are so may things to choose from to delight your palate, but don't take my word, try it yourself.

  • 4/5 Leon H. 2 years ago on Google
    Wed 26th Jan 2022 Was recommended by a local for a brekkie. What a surprise, clean neat and tidy, staff more than friendly. Service tops Food excellent Only disadvantage is the fact that it's on the N2 passing through Knysna, so non stop vehicle's, some heavy duty trucks, using air brakes, so can be a bit noisy. But then it's got that type of vibe that some like. Well frequented by tourist's, who keep on coming back!! My wife & I will definitely be back for another breakfast!

    Great coffeeshop, in an unexpected place. The food is very, very good. All made with fresh ingredients, and the taste shows it. As a tip, the salmon sandwich was simply perfect. Not to forget, a great espresso as well.

    Nice place in a historical building. Good to see that their decor shows the history of the place. Good spot for a quick coffee and dessert although the choice of cakes was quite simple and very European. I would personally be hoping for some local delicacies as the name of the place suggests. They close very much on time so do watch out for that when sipping your coffee in the late afternoon.

    We had a delicious meal. The filo basket is very tasty and portion size was perfect for lunch. Coffee is always good. The decor is pretty and quaint and loo was clean. Lovely staff.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ I enjoyed my time and food at 34 Degrees South. If you sit outside, you get treated to awesome views too of what can be described like Venice. Towards the latter part of the day, you'll see a gorgeous South African sunset (if there are no clouds). I had some wine by the glass, one of the few places...
