Coffee first

A different kind of island local.

Coffee Craft is Knysna’s only specialty coffee shop—a relaxed neighbourhood place where the coffee is carefully made and the welcome is genuinely warm.

Our trained baristas take the details seriously, whether they’re dialling in an espresso or brewing a V60.

They work with carefully selected Bluebird beans and proper technique to bring out the best in every cup.

Bluebird Coffee, brewed in Knysna.

We proudly serve Bluebird Coffee from Howick, KwaZulu-Natal—the team named Roastery of the Year 2025 by Coffee Magazine.

Come for a flat white, espresso or cappuccino, or slow things down with Knysna’s first V60 pour-over. It’s coffee with clarity, character and no unnecessary fuss.

Ask the barista what’s tasting especially good today.

Leisure Isle · Knysna

Coffee on the island.

Leisure Isle is a small island in the Knysna estuary, connected to the mainland by a causeway. Its quiet lanes, lagoon edges and birdlife make it one of Knysna’s loveliest places to walk slowly. Coffee Craft is at 18 Kings Way—an easy stop before a walk, after a swim, or simply because you crossed the causeway for good coffee.
