Beefcakes 

This unashamedly camp restaurant is all menu innuendo; try any one of the burgers between ‘perfect buns’. Build your own, or try a favourite: ‘Buffy the Hamburger Slayer’ is a gooey mound of bacon, cheddar and beef, beware the sting on the Chilli on the Willy Burger. Look out for ‘Drag Queen, Thursdays’, and ‘Bitchy Bingo, Tuesdays.’

A fair and well-priced selection with most by the glass. The cocktails are what to have here, and if you’re feeling adventurous throw back a body shot off one of the ‘buff’ waiters.

Friendly, fun and on the ball. It’s theatre, dahling.

Each table has a sequined cowboy hat for you to wear. Add to that pink flamingo wallpaper, disco balls, and feathers and you have the makings of a fun night out. There’s also a stage tucked into the corner decked out with props and a pink piano.

Bring your feather boa, there’s a cabaret club in the basement.(ML, September 2010)

Been here many times, in the week and sometimes on weekends. Wednesday and Thursday are great nights with one-man-cabarets. A lovely place for drinks (The Margaritas are to die for), great fun and warm and friendly atmosphere. The food is, to be honest, not high end... average hamburgers, nachos kind of thing, lots of cheese, sauces and fries. But it's a happy slice of Cape Town.
