Homemade Goodness

Secret Forest Café is made from scratch using only the best local and organic ingredients. Some of these ingredients are grown at the Ibis House Farm, where the café is situated. So you can expect to taste fresh, homemade goodness in each bite.

How to Find Secret Forest Café?

Finding the café can be a bit of a challenge, but it is worth it. The property is at the end of the wooden bridge adjacent to Lower Tokai Park, which is the fynbos part of the forest.

Eventually, you will reach a long gray wall, where you’ll find the café.
