Without a doubt, our current most favourite family treat stop in Gordon’s Bay is The Waffle Cafe, situated out front at the Old Cape Mall, just across from the main beach parking area. Complete with gift shop, fresh look, and great family vibe, this is the go to place if you are in need of big satisfying waffles with proper melt-in-your-mouth ice cream. And toppings. Lots and lots of toppings.

Naturally then, this sugar delivering beachfront attraction is a siren call to the girls, and luckily for them mom and dad are pretty into it too. Delicious waffles, milkshakes and craft beer, outdoor seating, shady umbrellas and a stone’s throw from the beach, couldn’t ask for much more really! This time around, it was chocolate ice cream, Oreos, almonds, honey and banana by the look of things…

Taking a gander at the photos above, this particular visit apparently saw a lot of finger hearts, I fail to remember why. Clearly I also then made the girls pose in front of nearby fish and chips shop Trawlers‘ awesome (and very colourful) mural, followed by a trip to Yokico in Somerset Mall (the girls’ most favourite stationery shop in the whole wide world) for some inexplicable reason too. I can only assume that I was being held hostage on the day…
