Our Story

Set in a beautiful historic house in the heart of Stellenbosch, Stellos Coffee has become the town's second home.

From the first pour-over of the morning to the last catch-up over coffee in the afternoon, Stellos is where students, remote workers, runners and locals gather. A peaceful garden, a covered porch, and exceptional coffee — crafted with care, served with warmth, every single day.

Specialty Coffee

Handcrafted espresso, made with intention.

Every cup at Stellos begins with carefully sourced specialty beans, dialled in daily by our baristas. Whether it's a classic flat white, a single-origin filter, or our beloved Stellos Freeze, expect consistency and genuine craft in every cup.

Fresh Pastries

The Crookie — Stellenbosch's most-loved treat.

Buttery, flaky croissant dough filled with rich cookie dough and baked until golden — the Crookie is the reason people cross town for their coffee fix. Pair it with our croissants, brownies, toasties and freshly baked muffins, made in-house every morning.
