About Grub & Vine

Grub & Vine brings a polished yet unpretentious bistro experience to Cape Town’s lively Bree Street. Chef Matt Manning focuses on ingredient-driven, seasonal cooking, delivering dishes that are refined without being fussy. Expect bold flavours, expert technique, and a touch of British influence, all served in an inviting, relaxed space. Whether you’re settling in for a multi-course dinner or a leisurely lunch, the menu is designed to let quality ingredients shine, with a rotating selection that keeps things fresh and exciting.

About the Grub & Vine Wine List

The wine program, overseen by Keize Mumba, is just as thoughtfully curated, offering a tight yet impressive selection of South African standouts alongside a handful of well-chosen international bottles. This dedication to quality over quantity earned Grub & Vine the Gold Star for Best Short List (fewer than 200 listings) at the Star Wine List 2023 awards. The balance of warm hospitality, serious but approachable food, and an award-winning wine list makes it a favourite for those who appreciate well-executed simplicity in both their glass and on their plate.

  • Grub & Wine is a great example and proof that a great wine list does not necessarily have to be long. Exciting and fun layout headlining different grape varieties and playful styles, great selection by the glass, and a list that features not only cult classics from South Africa but also a fine selection of well-known French wines, says jury member Raimonds Tomsons, ASI Best Sommelier of the World 2023, when Grub & Wine won gold for Best Short List 2023.
