Sea Point social spot gets a new look
On the sea-front in Sea Point sits a historic hotel, providing a picturesque view of the Atlantic for lovers of sundowners and carefree moments - Winchester Mansions. After a three-month long design transformation, this social hotspot's Harveys Bar and Terrace has opened.
Initiated by Cape Town interior design company Origin Interiors, the bar showcases long stretches of comfort in classic black and white colours. Comments Origin Interiors: "We chose the high contrast of black and white to introduce a sophisticated, stylish setting for meetings. The ornate detail in the furniture adds some nostalgia and mimics the hotel's charm, and is perfect for social get-togethers."
Light greys, blues and stone were chosen to enhance the freshness and natural surroundings of the coastline, allowing for a welcoming feeling at any time of day. The look is brighter and energetic but retains its glamour - choose from chic tub stools or cosy comfort seating under attractive pendant chandelier lighting for relaxed get-togethers. The area has it all with sumptuous fabrics and a relaxed atmosphere.

Harveys Bar
The bar opens onto an airy terrace, a sun-kissed spot that welcomes revellers. Order a cup of coffee, a light snack or a glass of wine and enjoy half an hour of free Wi-Fi. Try the parmesan fries with garlic aioli or for those man-sized appetites, the legendary Winchester Mansions Club sandwich promises to be a deliciously satisfying treat that'll prepare you for a sun-soaked stroll on the boardwalk next to the breakers. It's a great venue for any season and is truly Sea Point's darling.
