Durban - Where to drink

Like Johannesburg, it is important to stick to the safer areas of the city when drinking, but when in these areas, there are some great bars to enjoy.

Gillitts
The Swan and Rail Old Hillcrest Railway Station
Inanda Road

Housed in an old railway station built 1896, this restaurant is a special treat for any visitor. There are tables on the platform, two 1820 dining coaches and 14 different draughts on tap!!

Corner of Innes & Windermere Rd

A genuine fusion of the creative spirits of artists, DJs, culinary maestros, and cocktail inventors, Home is currently the place to be in Durban. Watch South Africa's beautiful people while trying one of the exotic cocktails on the menu, or a good old fashioned beer of course.

Rainbow Restaurant & Jazz Club
23 Stanfield Lane,
Pinetown

This local legend has been rocking the suburbs since the early '80s when it defied apartheid legislation to bring people of all backgrounds together to celebrate the transcendent pleasures of Jazz. Some of the country's biggest names play at the weekly concerts held on Sunday.
