The best corner shop winner: Montagu Local
No food is better than real food, and Montagu Local supplies all the good stuff. This quaint, but mighty fine, store is an ode to the concept, farm to fork – and the setting is stunning too.
Located in the picturesque town of Montagu – about two hours away from Cape Town – the shop is light and bright, featuring lots of windows, raw wood, and considered decor. It’s a beautiful space to support local.
Baked, brewed, wrapped, stacked and ready to take home, this corner shop stocks artisanal goodies from all sorts of entrepreneurs.
From cheeses and charcuterie to pickles and preserves, there’s something for everyone. Collect divine goodies for the ultimate snack plate or dinner at home, or grab a ready-made meal. Can’t wait? Their pies are top-class and perfect for lunch on the go. There’s also a vibrant grocery section for fresh fruit and veggies.
All products are from surrounding areas and are sustainable, regenerative, environmentally friendly, preservative and additive free. This is raw goodness and a truly wholesome experience.
Head over to Montagu Local, grab a basket and fill it with local love.
