Food Scene

The food is literally out of this world. A great treat. Also, the restaurant shares the space with a craft brewery which doesn't hurt.

You can get a great souvlaki whilst watching the world pass through Maboneng from their deck on top of a shipping container.

A great local success story. The Blackanese started at Market on Main and is now a highly-rated and very popular sushi restaurant.

This was the seed that started it all. Market on Main was the first re-development project in the area that set the ground work for everything else. Food meets shopping, meets art. There are great stalls offering everything you can imagine. Open on Sundays and on the first Thursday of every month.

Similar to the Neighbourhoods Market in Cape Town. Held in Braamfontein on Saturdays. Lot's of awesome food and great music. Later in the day, you can head to Great Dane or Kitcheners for a party.

One of my favourite restaurants located in trendy and up-market Pankhurst. It serves French cuisine. Get the Moules frittes - mussels and french fries. You can head to Jolly Roger after for a great pub vide.

Out local Ethiopian restaurant just downstairs. If you've never tried Ethiopian food, you simply have you to. It's quite rich and a little spicy, but if you can handle an ordinary curry you should be just fine. It's also great value for money and quick and easy. For variety, I'd recommend the Mahberawi which is a mixed meat and vegetarian dish on top of injera - a delicious sour dough Ethiopian bread which looks like a pancake.

Entertainment & Activities

Rated the best backpackers in Jo'burg. Speak to Bheki and you'll understand why. Amazing tours around Jo'burg that show a side of Jo'burg that you've never seen before. They organise great walking tours and, for the brave, an inner-city pub crawl (which I highly recommend). Various tours and other activities can be arranged through them. Also, they have a great pub to meet other travellers.

For the adrenaline junkie. Fancy bungee jumping off one of Soweto's landmarks? Then this is just for you. After getting the pulse racing grab a drink and some Shisa Nyama (meat off the BBQ/braai).

One of Jo'burg's only independent art-house cinemas. Run by movie geeks, you'll often find quirky special events such as Big Lebowski nights, Noodlebox cinema, and french themed evenings. Some celebrities are known to pay a visit here. It's the only cinema I know of that allows you to bring in your beer and pizza whilst you watch.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is the real deal as far as Jazz clubs go in Johannesburg. Also a very nice restaurant. You'll discover some amazing acts and true South African jazz. They have big band on some nights, and salsa dancing on others. A great night out for a group or for a couple.

The Living Room is like an inner-city eco retreat. Except add a bar and DJs. Great views of the city skyline. Sundays play host to special events open to the public. It's often booked for private events so check before hand.

Getting Around

This is your connection to the airport, Rosebank, Sandton, Centurion, Pretoria and Hatfield. A modern, safe, clean and efficient means of transportation. An Uber taxi is the ideal way to get here. Also, the City Sightseeing hop-on, hop-off Red Bus stops here as one of its main stops.
