Capetonian photographer Anton Crone visited the recently opened Department of Coffee, Khayalitsha’s first dedicated coffee shop, and photographed the establishment and its surroundings.

“Take a sip of the latté from Khayelitsha’s first coffee shop and shut your eyes. That’s right. It’s that good. You’re transported to the coolest café in Cape Town where you’ll find a hipster on your left, a schmodel on your right, a pile of fashion mags in between and – oh, bugger that. Open your eyes. Take it all in: the umfazi, the skinny mutt, the indoda endala and the intombi with the big butt.”

Visit Anton’s blog, Bright Continent, for more info on Department of Coffee and some more photos.
