Exploring Durban’s Dynamic Coffee Culture: Must-Visit On-the-Go Stops
Durban’s coffee scene is ever-evolving with quick, on-the-go kind of coffee stops having become one of the latest lifestyle essentials. Our team recently went on the hunt to explore these hidden gems and here is our short-list of the best we found in KZN.
Humble Coffee
Humble Coffee is the epitome of true dedication to the craft. Amy Gardiner not only roasts her own coffee blends at her Churchill Road branch, but she has also opened up the Grab and Go branch on Florida Road.
Ultimately, it’s much more than just another coffee shop. Here, all the great coffees, as well as delightful in-house bakes are on offer. They cater for vegan and keto diets with gluten-friendly breads, vegan cheese and even a vegan egg option.
Coffee roasting is done in small batches to ensure consistency and quality and their coffee is traceable back to the farm. They also use green coffee (raw product) to promote sustainability throughout the supply chain.
Santosa Coffee
This newly opened coffee shop – hiding amidst the madness of the busy Durban Street – is a gem waiting to be explored. Their in-house roasted signature coffee is a Pistachio Latte and the treat that customers keep coming back for is the San Sebastian Cheesecake with Pistachio Crème.
They offer a variety of light meals and patrons are also welcome to use their unique Book Exchange, where you can bring and take books at no charge.
Santosa Coffee is strictly Halaal, but caters for vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free diets too.

HOT Coffee Bar Durban
Safeea Rahiman has – in true Durban style – brought business smarts into this Halaal coffee shop. It shares the premise with a hair salon and in combination with the aromas of medium-blended Brazilian and Tanzanian coffee beans, it’s a dream come true!
Their signature Dulce Latte is made from layers of espresso, steamed milk, foam and condensed milk and it’s a must-try. Food on the go includes Chili Cheese Chicken Toasties, homemade biscuits, samosas and other baked specialties, including vegetarian options.
Adora Mobile Coffee
This is as on-the-go as you’ll get when it comes to coffee. If you need coffee at an event, corporate function or buji party, Adil Gora is the man to call.
Riding the wave of success from the East Coast Radio House and Garden Show, they offer strong roasted coffees sourced from the UK. Their signature is the Cortado and their famous freezos. They are Halaal and also offer brownies and rusks.
