Bay Harbour Market
31 Harbour Rd, Hout Bay, Cape Town, 7872
Bustling weekend food hall in a converted harbourside fish factory, packed with local street-food stalls.
This guide to Bay Harbour Market in Cape Town traces how a gutted, roofless fish factory in Hangberg sat empty for years before Anthony Stroebel and a stranger named Paul Rutzen saw it as a warehouse-sized kitchen. It follows the two-year rebuild toward opening day in July 2011, when more than three thousand people showed up on the very first day. The old plant once gutted and packed fish by the ton for export; today its smell is coffee, woodsmoke and a dozen sizzling griddles.
