The read
- What it feels like
- Woodstock is Cape Town's creative engine. The Old Biscuit Mill anchors Saturday mornings. Street art covers entire building facades. It's gentrifying fast but still has grit.
- Who is around
- Artists, designers, market-goers on Saturdays, and food lovers hunting for the city's best small-batch everything.
- On foot
- Flat and walkable within the main creative precinct. The area is spread along Albert Road for about 1 kilometre.
- After dark
- Craft breweries and restaurants in the converted warehouses stay open for dinner. The area is quieter on weeknights but picks up on weekends. Stick to the main streets and well-lit areas.
