About

The Joint Jazz Cafe in Durban is a great spot for a relaxed evening by the beach. The atmosphere is chilled and inviting, with beer crates stacked up for walls and old coke bottles made into chandeliers. The menu offers a variety of local dishes, from traditional braii to trendy salads and vegan wraps. The food is delicious, and the prices are quite reasonable. The views of the beach and promenade are stunning, and the music is great. The service is friendly and attentive, although communication could be improved. Unfortunately, the furniture is outdated and needs an upgrade. The bouncer is also rude and disrespectful, which is unacceptable. All in all, The Joint Jazz Cafe is a great place to enjoy a meal or drinks with friends and family while taking in the beautiful views of the beach.

There was no water when we arrived and oil, which was something I believe could have been sorted out day before or even weeks if proper planning is done ….otherwise the food was awesome Just the thought of sharing sauce with other tables a bit inconvenient Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast Price per person R 50–100 Food: 5 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes Queens Breakfast

I went to this place about 4 times during my stay in Durban, its soooo underrated but probably because its on South Beach, and it has like old fashioned house sofas 😂 this place has beautiful seaviews and a balcony too, the cocktails are to die for and affordable and worth every cent, the food absolutely delicious, the staff are amazing. I will always visit this place when I'm in Durban as long as they stick to this quality. Meal type Lunch Price per person R 350–400

It was the most magnificent day down on the Durban promenade and we decided to stop by and try out their widely advertised Vuka breakfast. The views from the outside deck were great, the only downside being the wind direction ... but you can choose to go inside or even upstairs which also has really great views and is sheltered. We had a really nice waiter serve us. The breakfast was a very nice size portion - very nice bacon and pork sausages. Loved the spice on the french fries. Fried eggs, sunny side up came with the whites still runny, but was was quickly sorted by asking to have them flipped. The breakfast advertises 2 slices of bread, and it's white bread only ... but it's really 1 slice of bread cut into 2 triangles ... not a biggie, but why? Cappuccinos were not great, had a soapy taste, and tasted like longlife milk had been used. Loved the laid back jazz music that was being played at a perfect volume. We will definitely go back and have drinks at the upstairs section which has a great setting. Worth a whirl.

The best experience of an urban ‘chisa nyama’. It is a great place to for lunch and early dinners for a great views and sunset. They also have a great music. The menus didn’t have much variety though.

Huge portions of Shisa Nyama, the traditional dish of Durban. The meat is of very good quality and well spiced. Fortunately they offer takeaway packing because you cannot waste this amount of lovely food. The atmosphere at the beach in cozy armchairs is very relaxing. Service is also nice, and well if they don't come to check on all the time, just go to the counter and they will promptly be back serving you.

We were served dry and old/off food. The sofas so dirty. Don't go there if like good quality food and clean place. One star for good music and drinks. Oh Bill comes with tip already added to a bill...even if you not happy with service you are forced to pay a tip!!!!!!!!! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner
