Café Pistachio in Sam Levy's Village is known for pastries and cakes. Denice (2024) said the avocado, chicken and feta toastie “was delicious” and “just looked beautiful”, and Samantha (2025) tried the bao bun, finding the pulled pork filling “definitely a lot tastier than the ones I've been having lately” though the bun itself “massive”.
Nomsa (2024) had a cheesy beef burger arrive without the onion rings and caramelised onions listed on the menu, and it took two attempts to get it right; otherwise Nomsa called it “a pleasant and well decorated place”.
Café Pistachio is open Monday to Friday 07:00 to 17:00 and Saturday 07:00 to 14:00, closed Sunday, by the clock tower at Sam Levy's Village.
