☕️ Treat your eyes to this! 🍫

A huge thank you to Kim Mitchell for capturing this beautiful video of Marquin, our much-loved barista, crafting the perfect hot chocolate. Watch until the end to see it paired with one of our fudgy, decadent brownies. It is the ultimate comfort combo!
We absolutely love and appreciate feedback like this, It truly makes our day! 🥰
EXCITING NEWS;
Because you love it so much, we will soon be selling our homemade hot chocolate mix right here in store!
Soon you can recreate a little bit of Marquin's magic at home ☕👌

A taste of home on a rainy day 🌧️🥧

The weather in Kleinmond is properly cold and rainy today, which usually calls for one thing: Quality control with a blazing fire, my dogs and a glass of red wine in hand😉
As many of you know, I tend to stay behind the scenes, but today I couldn't resist helping myself to one of our quiches.
There’s a special story in every slice—these are my mom’s original recipes. She taught Hencia everything she knows, and Hencia, in turn, passed those secrets down to her sister-in-law, Lindsay. ( Both turned out to be absolute naturals!) 👩‍🍳✨
Watching them work alongside our brilliant barista, Marquin Brikkels (yes, it’s a family affair!), reminds me why Chapter 7 Coffee feels so much like home.
I have to severely restrict myself from having one every day and instead head to the gym up the road, but after that first bite this afternoon, I was very nearly tempted to go back for a second!
If you’re looking to escape the rain this coming week, pop in for a fantastic cup of coffee and a freshly baked quiche, muffin or sweet treat, we promise it’s still up to scratch! ☕💛
OPEN Monday TO Friday 07.30AM to 15.00PM 💕

🍂 NEW SEASONAL STUNNER! 🍂
Get ready to meet your new obsession. We’ve just perfected a Pumpkin Cake that is incredibly moist, light, and fluffy. We’ve topped it with a thick layer of tangy cream cheese frosting and decadent caramel topping.
🍰✨It’s the ultimate autumn vibe in every bite. Go on, treat yourself—you deserve it!
🛒 Come grab a slice while it’s fresh!

Looking for a sweet way to say “I love you” this Mother’s Day?

🌸Motherhood comes in so many beautiful forms—it’s the late nights, the endless patience, and that fierce, unconditional love for tiny (or not so tiny anymore) humans and our precious fur kids alike. 🐾💕

To celebrate every kind of mom, we have the perfect little gift in-store: the cutest, most delicious handcrafted cookies made by the talented Ashleigh from Candy Carousel Cookie Creations 🍭✨
These edible works of art are almost too pretty to eat (but far too tasty to resist).
Swing by this week to grab a treat for the mom who does it all. Let’s make her day just a little sweeter!

Happy Wednesday! ☁️☕️

It’s definitely a "stay inside" kind of day.
If the grey skies have you feeling a bit sluggish, come tuck yourself into a warm corner at CHAPTER 7 Coffee.
The coffee is brewing, and we've got plenty of treats to brighten up your day!
Whether you’re craving a savory homemade quiche, a fluffy muffin, or a decadent slice of cake, we’ve got just the thing to hit the spot. 🍰🥧
See you soon! 🍰☕

Happy 4th Anniversary to two of our absolute favorites, Marquin and Hencia! 🥂✨
Today we’re celebrating more than just a wedding date; we’re celebrating two beautiful souls who define what it means to stand by one another.
You’ve faced your share of trying times, but your love has never wavered—it’s only grown stronger and more inspiring to everyone around you.
While you started as coffee shop staff, you’ve truly become family to me.
I feel so incredibly privileged to work alongside you both and to witness the life you’re building together.
Here’s to many more years of love, strength, and laughter.
We love you guys! ❤️☕️

🐰 EASTER HOURS UPDATE 🐣

Hey coffee lovers! Just a heads-up that CHAPTER 7 Coffee will be taking a little break over the long weekend.

🚫 CLOSED:
Friday, 3 April
Monday, 6 April

We’ll be back to fuel your caffeine needs on Tuesday! ☕️

Wishing everyone a joyous and safe Easter weekend. See you soon! ✨

30/03/2026

We love receiving feedback like this! 🥰Thank you so much for your kind words!

Chapter 7 Coffee on a Monday morning is a buzzing spot. This coffee stop is truly an outlier - located in what is known as an industrial area, not a busy, high traffic area, wedge between motor services, yet highly popular.

It has become a good example of a Third Space (covered in our first edition - find it at www.thecurrenttimes.com) - a space where spontaneous connections happen.

And they serve excellent coffee. With a smile.

Headline:
🚨 URGENT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨
Hey coffee lovers! ☕️✨
We have some news that might be hard to swallow... CHAPTER 7 Coffee will be CLOSED for a short break next week.

Why? Well, our hardworking team has been brewing, steaming, and baking non stop since before and straight throughout the madness of December holidays, and kept up the pace ever since 💪
To keep the magic alive (and to ensure we don’t accidentally start serving decaf by mistake—the horror!), we’re taking some much-needed downtime to recharge our own batteries. 🔋🔌
The Timeline:
Closed: Monday, 2 March – Friday, 6 March
Re-opening: Monday, 9 March @ 07:30 AM sharp! ⏰
We’re going to miss your faces, but we promise to return with even more caffeine-fueled energy and fresh treats.
Thank you for being the best part of our story and for letting our "mighty team" take a breather!
See you on the 9th! ❤️☕️🍰

As we wrap up 2025, I wanted to take a moment to share how incredibly grateful I am for the community that fills our shop every day, and for the support system that makes it all possible.

🟡To my amazing team:
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Your trustworthiness is the backbone of this business, and your enthusiasm keeps our spirits high even on the busiest days.
Most of all, thank you for your sense of humor—especially during these final weeks of the year when the holiday rush has us all a little tired.
Your laughter behind the counter and in the kitchen is what makes this shop feel like home!

⚫To our wonderful clients:
You are the reason we do what we do. To those who are "part of the furniture"—the familiar faces who have been with us through it all—thank you for your loyalty. And to the many new faces who have joined us this year and are fast becoming regulars, thank you for choosing us.

🟡To my incredible family:
My deepest gratitude goes to my parents for their endless support and unwavering belief in me.
And to my amazing husband, thank you for your boundless patience, love, and support through all the ups and downs this year brought. You are my rock. 💕

I am beyond thankful for every one of you. Here’s to a restful break and an even better year ahead! 🎉☕🍰
