👍👍 BEST MUSSELS YOU CAN FIND, HANDS DOWN! I ordered the fish and chips and that was delicious as well! But let me tell you, as a person who isn't big on mussels, I could've easy ordered my own portion and happily finished it! Wonderful!

The waffle cafe is quite popular and there's a couple of other shops including a restaurant with a great view of the False Bay basin. There's ample parking and although the centre is still...
