44 Stanley, Urban Cool

Urban cool at 44 Stanley

Finding delicious food.
Sundays are good for setting out on a long walk to build up stamina.

The challenge however is to find interesting destinations to keep us motivated to be on the pavements here in Johannesburg.

The decision to walk to 44 Stanley was perfect. A fair distance through lovely suburbs with a sumptuous breakfast at Salvationcafe, the heaters, blankets and good coffee were most welcome.


  • Walking log: 7th June
18.5 km walk. Walking well, managing the achy knees and back. Wonderful to feel the strength building for long walks.

Total kilometres to date: 1058.5





From 44 Stanley website:

44 Stanley is Joburg’s best kept secret.
The 44 Stanley site was once a series of industrial 1930’s buildings, and has been developed into a collection of speciality boutiques, foodie stops and design studios. Meander through the shady arcades and courtyards to savor the trees, architecture and gorgeous fare; from food, clothing and toys to antiques and interiors. The ambience is a relaxed, friendly and refreshing mix of quintessential Johannesburg elements.
