Father’s Day at Shift Espresso Bar ☕💥
Because Dad fuel = caffeine + corny jokes 😎
This Sunday, we’re giving a FREE cappuccino to every superhero Dad who comes through our doors. No cape required, just a good appetite and maybe a “when I was your age…” story.
🍳 Bring him for brekkie, spoil him with a proper meal, and 1 cappuccino on the house, for Dad only – sorry kids 😜).
📞 Booking is a great idea Dads get grumpy when they’re hungry, which leaves them hangry!🤣
WhatsApp or call us to reserve: +27 (73) 701-6631
