Teez @ 115 is a south african restaurant in Gugulethu, Cape Town.
Editorially verified September 26, 2026 by Elliot Marsh, TableJourney editor. Source.
Why locals love it: The site that made Gugulethu famous under its old name still runs the same butchery-then-braai system, yet almost no visitor itinerary lists NY115 by its street number.
Tip: Buy your own meat at the butchery counter first, then hand the tray to the braai team rather than waiting for table service.

Eziko Restaurant serves cooked-to-order township meals in Langa while training unemployed local residents for hospitality careers around Cape Town.
Why locals goThe dining room trains unemployed Langa residents for hospitality jobs, and every plate is cooked to order rather than kept warm for a passing crowd.
TipCall ahead before visiting, since every plate here is cooked fresh for your group instead of held warming under a lamp.
Cafe Roux is a farm village garden cafe in Noordhoek, on the quieter side of Chapmans Peak from central Cape Town, known for live music dinners.
Why locals goNoordhoek's farm village sits behind Chapmans Peak, far enough from the City Bowl that most day visitors never find the outdoor tables under oversized khaki umbrellas.
TipBook ahead for a live music, comedy or film night, when dinner is also served outside under the tent.
Oatlands Cafe is a farmstyle garden cafe on Vissershok Road in Durbanville, on the quiet inland edge of metropolitan Cape Town, loved by cyclists.
Why locals goMountain bikers finishing the Tygerberg trails treat this farm cafe as their regular stop, while it sits far enough inland that most visitors skip Durbanville entirely.
TipTime a visit around the Tygerberg mountain bike trails, and let kids loose on the lawn while your coffee is poured.
Snoekies is a fish and chips takeaway at the far end of Hout Bay harbour near Cape Town, where the brand began in a converted bus parked there in 1951.
Why locals goIt sits at the far end of Harbour Road, past the point on the Hout Bay waterfront where most visitors turn back, on the spot where its founder parked a converted bus in 1951.
TipHead upstairs if you have children: the Hout Bay branch has a big indoor play area with a jungle gym and sandpit beside the dining room.
Bo-Kaap Kombuis serves home-style Cape Malay bobotie and denningvleis from a house on August Street in Bo-Kaap, Cape Town, with a Table Mountain view.
Why locals goIt operates out of an ordinary house on August Street rather than a Bo-Kaap storefront, so the Table Mountain view from the dining room stays a surprise until you sit down.
TipAsk for a window table before you sit; the view over the City Bowl is why regulars book ahead for weekend dinners.
Plumstead Fisheries fries fish and chips on Main Road in Plumstead, a southern suburb of Cape Town well away from the coastal harbour counters.
Why locals goSouthern suburbs regulars queue here straight after work instead of driving to the coast, since the fryer turns out the same fish and chips without the trip to Kalk Bay.
TipAsk what came in fresh that morning before ordering, since the counter also sells whole fish to take home and cook.
