Cafe Villa

 



Built in the early 1920’s and known as the house 
“where time stands still”, Villa d’ Este was built
according to the eccentric and Italian-inspired wishes of its original owner. 
Complete with cherubicfountains, frescoes, columns topped with eagles and a curved entrance façade facing a reflection pool,all of which has been lovingly restored– and has remained a historic landmarkin the leafy suburb ever since.

At Café Villa one can look forward to an array of mouth-watering dishes ranging from breakfasts,delicious sandwiches to crispy salads, pastas, tarts and decadent cakes. The restaurant also offers a signature High Tea  and Spa treats for an ultimate indulgence. 

While the beautiful, atmospheric gardens of the Villa, extraordinary architecture and the gorgeous water features provide a relaxing ambience where guests can enjoy their meals.  The menu is a blend of contemporary local & International trends,
provided with a dash of detail and full flavoured taste.
