Service is fast and friendly.
Cassie went above and beyond to ensure our visit was perfect, offering great recommendations and making sure our drinks were always topped up without us even needing to ask. Her knowledge of the menu and ability to handle a busy service with ease was seriously impressive. It’s rare to come across someone so naturally skilled in customer service, and she is a real credit to the pub.
If you’re looking for a great atmosphere, top-notch drinks, and service that makes you want to come back time and time again, The Cape of Good Hope is the place to be—especially if you’re lucky enough to be served by Cassie!
10/10 experience, and I’ll definitely be returning.
