Five coffee shops near Durban Beachfront

It looks like the remote work life is mostly here to stay, along with all of the perks that it offers including flexibility and the chance to work from anywhere. This has made life a lot easier for working moms that need to do the school run, entrepreneurs with back-to-back meetings and being able to duck into a coffee shop to send a few emails while running errands. 

With so many more people working remotely now, if you walk into a coffee shop around the Durban Beachfront there’s a good chance that you’ll see quote a few people with a steaming cup of java, typing furiously on their laptops. If you’re in the area and looking for a convenient spot to enjoy a coffee and do a bit of remote work, then these five coffee shops might be perfect for you.

The Bike and Bean

The Bike and Bean is normally filled with lycra-clad cyclists grabbing a cuppa before work or enjoying the bike park (perhaps the 5:30 am opening time has something to do with that). It’s also a great spot to cosy up in the corner and get on the grind. You can find this coffee shop on the Snell Parade.

Cafe Jiran

Cafe Jiran is an elegant spot located in Belaire Hotel Suites, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a beautiful terrace area. This is a fantastic choice if you want to entertain a potential client and have a conversation over a cup of coffee or a drink. Their food is also exceptional - so you may find yourself staying for a meal!

The Joint Jazz Cafe

The Joint Jazz Cafe is a laid-back venue that invites you to sit down and enjoy some of South Africa’s best national food and craft beer on tap. In our opinion, this is a great spot to take your laptop and end off the working week, easing gently into the weekend. You’ll find them on South Beach.

Circus Circus Cafe

Circus Circus Cafe serves healthy meals and tasty treats on the Durban Promenade. Their mission is to serve local, seasonal and fresh food and drink while you enjoy the beautiful surroundings. What better way to do business than with good food and a view of the beach! 

Surf Riders Cafe

This is another coffee shop and health bar near the Durban Beachfront that serves food that looks as good as it tastes. There is plenty of seating space to settle down with your laptop and put in a couple of productive hours. They are also located on South Beach.
