Ant Cafe- Melville
With all the studying I’ve been doing, my restaurant visits have been limited lately 🙁
I did pop out to Ant Cafe in Melville earlier this week for one of their delicious pizzas.

I don’t hang out in Melville much anymore. I think that I spent ALL my time there during varsity and I have too many drunken memories there, so it isn’t really somewhere I want to explore now. It’s targeted to students I think, and most of the places are kind of grungy.
I like rustic restaurants like The Attic and Possums in Parkhurst, but some of Melville’s hangouts are just DIRTY.
That said, I do love Ant Cafe. It’s on 7th street, and they have the BEST pizzas (okay, after Col’Cacchio). The crust is super thin and crispy, and on Mondays they have a special where all large pizzas are R45.
The inside is really dark and kind of romantic 🙂
They also have an outdoor patio- great for sunny afternoons
I’d say give it a try, if you’re not OCD about everything being neat and spotless…

The Pizza looks so yum. when the hubby and I were still dating and we were also with two of his cousins – I’m not sure where we went before but we were looking everywhere for somewhere to nom past 10 at night – we found the Ant cafe but they could only offer us coffee – so we were seated riiiiiight at the back (outside ) and it was super dark. On the next table was a guy who just stared at his coffee the entire time we were there.It was quite creepy as it was really dark lol and when the coffee came they plonked this huge plastic milk bottle on the table, mind you we were pretty late and I think they did us a favour by letting us in. We paid and had to leave through the back , and ended up next door – in this small hip hop? RnB party /club – the whole experience was vey “twilight zone”. It was years ago but we still laugh about it. We also haven’t been to melville in ages and decided to drive through the other day – maube we’ll try this place during the day. We used to love Soi and Buzz 9 in Melville
