weekend plans? handled🍸

world gin day may only be one day, but we’re stretching the celebration all the way through the weekend.

three gin cocktails. special pricing. absolutely no reason to stay home.

whether you’re joining us for dinner, settling in for a few rounds, or simply looking for an excuse to escape the winter weather, we’d suggest making it a gin-fuelled one.

good food. exceptional cocktails. warm corners. questionable decisions.

the special runs until 14 june.

secure your table before the gin drinkers get there first.

winter has convinced far too many people that staying home is a personality trait.

we’d like to challenge that.

step out of the cold and into a cosy bar, a proper meal, and a cocktail worth leaving the house for.

linger over dinner. order the dessert. add another cocktail because the conversation is going too well to leave.

good food. exceptional drinks. heaters glowing. no washing up.

honestly, we’re not seeing a downside.

a little gift from the gin gods🍸

from 10–14 june, we’re celebrating world gin day with our friends at juniper moon.

for five days only, three gin cocktails will be available at special pricing - giving you the perfect excuse to revisit an old favourite or discover a new one.

because some spirits deserve more than a single day of recognition.

make your booking now by clicking the link in our bio. your future self will thank you.

the best weekends rarely start with a detailed plan 🔥

they start with cocktails arriving at the table.
with food that’s almost impossible to share.
with friends settling in for “”one quick drink”” and somehow still being there three hours later.

good food. exceptional cocktails. low lighting. the right people.

the kind of place that gets the details just right.

weekends at fable have a habit of unfolding beautifully.

secure your table by clicking the link in our bio before someone else claims your favourite spot.

choosing a cocktail at fable requires focus.

clear your mind. release your distractions.
ignore your responsibilities (for the time being)

the answer will come to you 🍸

and if it doesn’t, our bartenders have spent years perfecting the art of enabling indecision.

either way, enlightenment is only a few sips away.

book your table by clicking the link in our bio and let’s elevate the start of a new month.

first thursday, winter edition 😈🍸

cape town may be cooling down, but inside fable it’s very much still a bad idea to “just have one.”

expect warm lighting, crowded corners, cocktails showing off, and a room full of people who clearly had no intention of going home early.

on the lineup:
🔥 world-class djs
🔥 live saxophone
🔥 cocktails doing far too much (as always)

winter looks better from inside the right bar.

start the month properly, book your table via the link in our bio.

we finally made another “sh*t you need to know about fable” post because apparently answering the same questions every weekend was becoming a personality trait 🔥

so whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, here’s the rundown:

the cocktails are serious. the food is too. yes, the menu tells stories. yes, the paintbrush drink is the original. yes, people really do stay longer than they planned.

consider this your official introduction to the world of fable 🍸

study the slides carefully. there will not be a test, but your order will say a lot about you.

remember to book your spot by smashing the link in our bio. spontaneous people rarely get the good seats.

burgers. cocktails. no further questions.

cape town is getting colder, which honestly just gives you more reason to disappear into fable for the evening.

warm lighting. heaters glowing inside and out on the deck. cocktails moving across the bar. proper food coming out of the kitchen. the kind of atmosphere that makes one drink feel irresponsible in the best possible way.

whether you’re avoiding cooking, or simply in the mood for something better than average midweek plans, we’ve got your table waiting this upcoming week.

come hungry. stay comfortable. order another round.

make the booking by tapping the link in our bio. your future self will be smug about it.
