About Leo's

Leo’s Wine Bar is a unique fusion of daytime bagel shop and nighttime wine haven, located on Bree Street in central Cape Town. By day, the space operates as Max Bagels, serving fresh bagels to a bustling crowd. Come evening, it transforms into Leo’s Wine Bar, offering an intimate and relaxed atmosphere for wine enthusiasts.

The bar specialises in low-intervention wines from smaller producers, with a strong emphasis on natural and organic selections. Their curated wine list features approximately 20 options, with around 10 available by the glass, rotating frequently to provide guests with new tasting experiences. Patrons can pair their wines with light snacks such as olives, bagel chips with dip, antipasti platters, or more substantial offerings like pizza bagels. The ambiance is further enhanced by regular vinyl listening sessions, creating a cosy and eclectic environment that appeals to both casual visitors and seasoned wine aficionados.

Leo’s operates from Monday to Saturday, 5pm to 11pm, and does not take reservations, welcoming guests on a first-come, first-served basis.
