L ondon’s most Instagram-worthy

café has finally opened its doors
in South Africa. The famous café
and lifestyle chain from the UK is
internationally known for its innovative
menu offering, unique interiors and
speciality coffee. With 32 stores already
dotted around the globe in locations
such as London, Milan, Paris and Dubai,
among others, the EL&N (pronounced
e-lan) brand recently made its national
debut at none other than Mall of Africa.

Picture-perfect moments are aplenty
in the custom-renovated space. In true
EL&N style, the store’s design boasts a
bespoke tree of light chandelier with
over 500 LED bulbs, casting a golden
glow over the pretty pink and green
interiors. The store also offers a brand
new Instagrammable feature dressed
in fuchsia pink blossoms and one of
EL&N’s iconic neon slogans.

The development team at EL&N have
brought a touch of localisation to the
Mall of Africa menu for Waterfall City
visitors to enjoy, with brand new steaks
and grills, as well as their first-ever
pizza bar, offering 11 rustic wood-
fired pizzas made fresh daily. Your
favourite brunch cult classics are also
on the menu, with a range of speciality
coffees, all day breakfast dishes and of
course their delectable patisserie.

EL&N (short for Eat, Live & Nourish) is
known around the globe for providing
a maximally photogenic backdrop
that is Instagrammable, yet stylish.
“We are over the moon to celebrate
our first opening in South Africa at
Mall of Africa. We’re bringing a touch
of London to Johannesburg with our
unique designs and an incredible menu
offering,” says EL&N founder, Alexandra
Miller.
