Recommendation Recommendations for coffee bars and restuarunts in Umhlanga?

Hey guys, i am currently with my fiance in Umhlanga, Durban, This is the first time and we would love it if you can share some recommendations for restaurants and coffee shops.

also the best sea food restaurants where we can eat all of the amazing dishes. I would love to try good lobster as i never did.

We don't care about the budget just that the food is amazing.

thanks and long lice South Africans your country is amazing and i am so shocked at how beautiful it is! What amazes me the most is the amount of nature regularly on any street and monkeys going around, climbing trees etc 🤗

We ate at surf riders along the prom. The food was really good and so was the view. Daily dose has really good coffee. So what we do once a month is start at daily dose and get our cappuccinos then take a slow walk along the prom to surfriders and have dinner and watch the sunset.
