The Wawa Workshop shopfront in Muizenberg, a surfer walking past with a wooden board

Where the workshop meets the water.

Cafe

Coffee, cake
and craft.

Start the day the Muizenberg way: slow and salty. A working surfboard workshop and a café under one roof, with locally roasted coffee, cake made in-house, and the smell of sawdust and salt. No rush. Surf time runs slow.

Find us at Muizenberg, Cape Town. Open from early, every surfable day. Order a coffee and watch the boards take shape.

  • Behind the counter at the Wawa cafe, boards and wetsuits either side
    Lenny pulls the best coffee in Muizenberg. Ask anyone.
  • A customer on a stool at the window counter with a coffee, Muizenberg outside
    The window seat, and the whole of Main Road going past it.
  • Wawa Geoprene wetsuit jackets hanging on a rail in the workshop
    Geoprene jackets, on the rail and ready for the 14°C mornings.
  • Barista pulling a shot on the red espresso machine, boards on the wall behind
    Come for the coffee, stay for Lenny’s chat.
  • A wall of finished paulownia surfboards standing in the Wawa shop
    Everything on the wall is for sale, and everything on the wall gets surfed.
