ABOUT US
Our Founders
Bootlegger Coffee Company was created in 2012 by 3 best friends, Pieter Bloem, De Waal Basson & Antonie Basson. The brand has now grown into multiple businesses all over Cape Town and Johannesburg, and still expanding. Each store has a carefully selected line from an AC/DC song hung on the wall in neon lights. A lot of the brands attitude and charisma comes from this throwback of great music and rhythm.
Bootlegger Original Blend
Displaying hints of toasted hazelnut, caramel and a subtle touch of dark chocolate. Blended to perfection in our roastery in Ndabeni, Cape Town. All our roasters are Giesen, which, in our opinion, are the best roasters in the world and ensure consistency in our coffee.
Our Food
We make honest food. Fresh local produce. Farm fresh free-range eggs. From burgers to benedict, ribs to rocket – we’ve hand-picked the best produce on offer. We have partnered up with South Africa’s favourite roadside bakery, Ou Meul, to bring you quality fresh and frozen goods…(Yes, those famous Riviersonderened pies and other homestyle food).
A FOCUS ON SUSTAINABILITY
From responsibly sourced Elgin free-range chicken to food waste turned to compost, every offering reflects our dedication to ethical and sustainable eating. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our coffee.
