welcome to the oldest gentlemans club in the world

Welcome to The Bombay Bicycle Club, Cape Town’s wonderfully wacky bohemian love den at the top of the hill, where everything is possible and always ensues.

Headed up by Madame Zingara and the sensational Jonny Cavanaugh, The Bombay is a representation of our colourful history and an expression of our eclectic past; a venue where you are encouraged to let your hair down and expected to stay up way past your bed time.

The menu is a collection of all-time favourites that have enchanted our diners for many years, complemented by an ever-changing collection of specials which embrace our local borough traders and keep even the most jaded palate amused.

As The Bombay represents our past, so The Sidewalk Cafe symbolizes the new. One for the wild and hedonistic, and one for the gentle soul – the yin and yang of Madame Zingara.

Madame Zingara

Madame Zingara‘s Theatre of Dreams, the Grande Dame of burlesque, is a unique dinner cirque spectacular which enchants, captivates and inspires all who pass through her stained glass doors and enter her magical world.

Housed in one of the last remaining Mirror Tents in the world, Victoria is a magnificent twenty five metre velvet big top that has toured the globe for the last eighty years...

This renowned restaurant, with its beautiful garden setting and breathtaking panoramic views has been charming locals and visitors alike for two decades, and has always remained a well-loved establishment in the Mother City.
