The barista taught me the process of Yama siphon at Origin Coffee Roasting's headquarters. The selection of regional coffees is superb, and the knowledgeable staff will expertly pair the brewing method best suited to your choice. The breakfast menu is great, with plenty of local farm-fresh produce and house-made bagels and sauces. Apparently there is an upstairs courtyard, I would definitely check it out! #coffee #CapeTown
