No. 100 in the world · November 2026

Jason Bakery

Bree Street · Cape Town, South Africa

The one thing to get

The bacon croissant, and the doughssant on Saturdays

When to go: Saturday mornings for the doughssant; weekdays for breakfast.

Cape Town's favorite bakery, where Saturday's croissant-doughnut has a cult.

Make it at home

Butter croissants

3 days, about 1 hr 30 min hands-on · 12 croissants. The real thing at home: a lean, cold dough, one sheet of butter, three folds and patience. Made over three days so nothing is rushed.
