About

PIER sits inside the Pierhead Building at the V&A Waterfront, serving seafood with direct harbour views. Expect salt air, the sound of water, and plates built around the day's fresh catch. Perfect for long lunches or sunset dinners by the water.

PIER Restaurant occupies the historic Pierhead Building beside the NSRI station at the V&A Waterfront. The location puts you right on the working harbour, not just near it. Expect the smell of the ocean and boats moving past your window. The menu leans into Cape seafood done with care and confidence. Fresh linefish, shellfish, and locally inspired dishes anchor the offering. The wine list pulls from nearby Winelands producers. Service earns its 4.8 rating through attentiveness without being intrusive. Go at sunset when the light hits the water and the mountain sits behind you. This spot works for a celebratory dinner, a slow weekend lunch, or impressing visitors who want the full Cape Town experience.
