About Jakes Restaurants

Jakes on the Common is an exceptionally stylish yet unpretentious destination restaurant perfectly positioned at the very foot of the iconic Chapman’s Peak Drive. Housed in a beautifully designed, purpose-built building surrounded by landscaped gardens, it seamlessly transitions from a vibrant, sunlit breakfast and lunch spot into a sophisticated, trendy dinner venue. Popular with passing tourists, active cyclists, and local families, the eatery serves a fantastic global menu featuring gourmet burgers, flatbreads, and creative main dishes alongside a bustling coffee culture. Whether you are relaxing next to the roaring indoor fireplace on a chilly day, sipping exotic cocktails in the upscale upstairs bar, or dining alfresco on the wrap-around terraces with stunning mountain views, it delivers consistently great food and a highly memorable social vibe.
