Today is the birthday celebration of the person that was the heart and soul of CoffeeBean Café…

I know we would have toasted her at the Cafe and had something special to honour this milestone day for her…

She poured her love into the relationships and experiences she created, the games for the kids, the animals at the Cafe, the beautiful decor and ambience that brought so much joy to our patrons’ time with us…

The harsh and unfair closure of CoffeeBean Café has been extremely difficult and hard over the past 6 months, its taken a toll on her…

If you remember and if you can please show some love to Lynn Steenkamp as we celebrate her and let her feel the love today…

A very happy and blessed birthday to Lynn…

Update: CoffeeBean Cafe - Temporary Closure
We hope you enjoyed a blessed Easter period and celebrated with family and friends.

Your support for our hot cross bun drive was overwhelming and we can’t thank you enough for all the shares on Facebook and comments received. It was a great few days in the bakery as all team members pitched in to help prepare the 100's of orders…it reminded us of the great team we have and it was fun!

Our joy was short lived as we received the outcome of our appeal from the Ekurhuleni Municipal Appeals Authority (EMAA). They dismissed our appeal and therefore we lost the appeal hearing, refusing our land use rights. It was cold comfort that COE withdrew the unlawful compliance notices the night before our appeals meeting.

The reasons and feedback contained in the record of decision is being studied and we’re weighing up our options.

Regretfully this means we will not be able to reopen our restaurant and patio service in the short term.

We are tremendously disappointed about the outcome and today we've spent time with the team on the way forward. As can be imagined this is difficult for Lynn and myself, but even more so for the broader CoffeeBean Cafe Team - please continue to keep us in your prayers and thoughts.

Lynn and I, are working hard on various alternatives to forge a way forward as we've enjoyed delivering old school, quality products and memorable experiences to our friends, patrons and customers. We’re seeking and evaluating alternative locations, new solutions and even a High Court Appeal if merits warrant. A formal community petition might now be helpful and we're consulting on the options with stakeholders.

For now we needed to share the update as we valued the support of the 100’s of people that dropped us personal messages, shared our posts and encouraged our team to stay strong - the response and support from the community has been deeply cherished by us all.

When we finalise any option on the way forward, we'll share the details with you.

Our warmest regards
CoffeeBean Cafe Team

A quick update on our temporary closure at CoffeeBean Cafe’s patio service and restaurant.

Firstly, the number of messages we receive with encouragement, support and prayers remain humbling - Thank You.

Please know that we value each message and share them with our Team - it helps all of us to navigate this difficult time.

On Friday, 15 March we continued our appeal hearing at the Ekurhuleni Muncipal Appeals Authourity (EMAA) for our land use rights applied for in 2021.

Adv Steyn represented us well and our submission was anchored in the facts and how we fall within existing policies and by laws of Ekurhuleni.

No surprises emerged on the day - which was great 😊 however COE remain strongly opposed to our land use application.

EMAA will finalise their decision and communicate the outcome over the next 2-4 weeks. We pray for an outcome before Easter.

Until then, we remain temporarily closed but hard at work planning our relaunch, making some changes and supporting the Team as their anxiety for the the future grows with month end pressures mounting.

We’re doing everything we can to resolve this temporary impasse and will share any news as soon as we receive it.

Please continue to remember CoffeeBean Café and keeps us in your prayers.

From all of us at CoffeeBean Café - warm regards
Jay, Ntombi, Peter, Eddy, Halbour, Mildred, Toddy, Amanda, Dineo, Patience, Shakes, Andrew, Alaska, Gift, Bright, Peggy, Rowson, Fraser, Pinki, Dorothy, Lynn and Donovan
