South Africa Western Cape Cape Town

The Gin Bar

A hidden gem offering an extensive selection of gins, located in a Mediterranean-inspired courtyard in the heart of Cape Town.

Tips from the community

A whole bunch of gin is the last thing you’d expect to find in a chocolate shop, but tucked away behind in the courtyard of Honest Chocolate is Cape Town’s first and only Secret Gin Bar. This exclusively gin-serving spot is located on Wale street and boasts an impressive collection of more than 40 crafted drinks. In addition to being completely hidden, The Gin Bar is rich in history: despite being a glamourous space now, the bar used to be part of mortuary!
