A Curated Collection for Java Junkies
We’ve teamed up with our friends over at Citymob to bring you a curated collection of all things coffee. Now, we don’t want to spoil all the fun by spilling the beans on what’s included, rather have a gander for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.
Merkabah
By I Love Coffee contributor, Angelo van Dyk. Merkabah Coffee came about through a mutual passion shared by brothers Andre and Calvin Botes. An Italian South African grandmother imbedded in the lads the principles of “la dolce vita” from a young age, and from there the rest is history as they say. Durban born, the [...]
A Fresh & Minty Coffee Campaign
How often have you enjoyed a cup of coffee & wished you had some gum on hand afterwards? Thanks to Wrigleys, you can “Start with a coffee, end with an Orbit” every time you visit Seattle Coffee Co. during January & February. Orbit teamed up with coffee media pioneers, Tag 8 Media, to launch a [...]
Aaaaaaaaand we’re back!
Greetings fellow coffee fiends! We’re kicking off the year with some quirkiness for all those that are back in the office today. We know your brain is still on holiday and will be for at least another day or two so here’s something that won’t sap too much brainpower. Say hello to the Star Wars [...]
Department of Coffee, Khayelitsha
Visit a train station first thing in the morning in any international first world city and you won’t be surprised to see a blur of take away coffee cups. Expecting to see the same at a train station in a township in South Africa is about as far fetched as expecting JZ to forego the [...]
The Blend
Fiiiiiiiinally, someone has decided to offer a selection of the city’s best roasts under one roof! We’ve been waiting patiently for this concept to pop up for some time now and we’ve seen similar concepts– Superette offered both Deluxe and Rosetta blends – but nothing quite as broad and with the same impetus behind it. [...]
Merchants Cafe
When you put these two together… …only great things can happen. Add in Hanneli Rupert and Tammy Tinker from Merchants on Long, Liam Mooney, Michael Chandler and an awesome little space on Long Street to this duo of Larry Steenkamp of Woodlands Eatery and the Field Office’s Will Hobson and you’ve got magic…in the form [...]

Cafe Frank
When a coffee shop or restaurant undergoes a name change it’s only natural to assume that the ownership has changed too. But when such a space changes its name for other reasons, all of which are positive, it’s good to know what it’s all about. In May, Bree Street’s Rotisserie 360 undertook the new title [...]
Josephine Road Ceramic Cups
We are loving these ceramic cups from Josephine Road. And what makes them even more appealing is that besides serving as a vessel for your early morning caffeine fix, they’re also great for ice-cream, soups, starters….anything really.
When your friends go to Jamaica…
Let’s be honest, if a friend tells you that s/he is off to Jamaica for two weeks, the news is undoubtedly going to conjure up some seriously deep shades of green. And then there’s the daily influx of breathtaking images via What’s App with captions like, “how amazing is this place?” and “this is the [...]
