ABOUT US

As South Africa’s first township dinner theatre, Amazink has been beloved by locals and tourists alike, drawing visitors from as far afield as Australia and Sweden. On Friday nights, a delicious, three-course South African meal set the stage for vibrant and soulful local rhythms woven through stories of life, love and laughter. During the week, locals from both Kayamandi and town used the space for coffee dates, meetings and post-parkrun breakfasts.

COVID lockdown and travel restrictions brought an abrupt end to the joyful sounds, with two years of silence.

In April 2022, the Amazink team crossed paths with the production company Homebrew Films and well-known chef Bertus Basson, who had been involved in the space in its very early days.

The idea of applying for ‘In Die Sop’ quickly went from idea to reality and in late April, Bertus and his crew, including interior designer Misi Overturf, revamped and reawakened Amazink.

We now serve local fare, with a focus on grilled chicken and delicious sides.

OUR KITCHEN

The vision for Amazink is to be a space where people who might not cross paths otherwise can sit around a table, talk, laugh and build friendships, and we invite you to join us in that!

Our menu is a culinary celebration of all that is local, with grilled chicken, pap, spicy chakalaka and slaw. (And there’s a free ice lolly with every chicken meal!)

OPENING HOURS
Tuesday – Saturday: 11:00 – 18:00
Sundays: 12:00 – 15:00
