Arrived at 11am. The bouncer took our temperature, sanitized our hands and then we had to seat ourselves. After 15 minutes of sitting there, we weren't served yet so we ordered our drinks straight from the bar. The person we suspected to be the waiter was uninterested in serving us. There was also no toilet paper in any of the bathrooms. When I asked for some, I was handed serviettes. On the upscale the "miss my flight" shooter is potent. I "missed" my breath from it and the lady behind behind the bar was friendly.

This bar has a very chilled ambience to it. I definitely recommend it for drinks during the day as it has a chilled vibe and a great view. Can get really full during the night though so there is limited space. The toilet facilities are very small. The bar men are very funny and friendly, they serve a variety of shots and drinks. The bouncers are very observant. Great place for chills with friends

The last time I was at this Bar was 2019 and this weekend my friends and I decided to pop by again and I don't regret the decision. We had an awesome time and thank you to the lovely lady Namhla she was present and helped us on menu options and the shooters we tried are great we'll be popping by again, I hope she will be there when we come back . She's for keeps

It's my first time in Cape Town and the first club that my friends took me out to was Abantu. I met this beautiful barlady Namhla, she took me through their menu that has different kind of shots and she recommended a few of the shots I enjoyed all of them. I had an amazing experienceI'm definitely visiting again. …

That’s my favourite place to go to. Whenever I’m in long street, I always end up there , the vibe is cool but I would really appreciate if the DJ can accommodate everyone in terms of music, DJ should play all the genre not one songs. …

Shots are nice and cheap on the first floor and a great place to warm up for other places in Long Street. Upstairs can either make or break your day with regards to the music but other than that it's more chilled than most of the clubs.

The staff is incredible and the music is always on point. Their headline DJ I think he's called DJ FrontMan will make you dance all night! They also very good cocktails and reasonably priced too! I would highly recommend this venue!!

The place is cool and the staff is friendly. It was my chill every now and then when I feel like going out. That is past because Dudu (the manager) has an attitude towards customers so i decided no am just going to stop going there.

My first time at Abantu I was saved by Tatenda. She is very customer friendly and always wearing a smile .She recommended some nice shooters for us and we really enjoyed them . I think Abantu is gonna be my favorite place …

Hi I love this club I love all those who came on with years at this place with me jimmy mostly an kemps the most wonderful people I ever met while being here in Cape Town I love back fire shots as well .. …

My best experience with some trendy set up withing the whole setting. Am so grateful. I really appreciate the service I received. Providers full of courtesy. I recommend anyone to visit. And see for yourself!

The shooters here were amazing... Bar tender was awesome at preparing the shots... which came out looking really cool. We had a great time here and I'll definitely be coming back to try out more shots!

Nice cheap drinks alternative. A great crowd. Dancefloor is spacious but it was full that night i was here. Did not bother to dance just enjoyed a nice glass of gin with my partner and chatting!

I like abuntu bcoz it's a club which is nice an u will neva regret it Yeager muster The bar man is a good worker abuntu is the best in longstreet cape town i appreciate the way they are working

A total dive, but a great place for cheap but surprisingly delicious shots and a must for any night out bar-hopping on Long Street. Order the powerhouse 'Missed My Flight' for an instant jolt.

Looking for cheap beer and shots?Then The is place is for you.I really enjoyed playing pool and talking with people that were there.It was a good night filled with laughter and beer

Great place to have a drink ,chill ,listen to your favorite track or play a game of pool while sipping on whatever it is you like drinking ...great customer service staff polite.

Beautiful atmosphere, lovely hospitality if you wanna get shots I recommend this place try out the Mayan sacrifice I'm hooked, Ongie is such a sweetheart thank you so much More

One advice: order the shots starting from R11 upwards. Everything below has names that have nice rings to them but they won't do much if you're somwhat resistant to alcohol.

all the stuff good except for one female staff tried to short Changed Me 2 times at the bar give her 200 and she try to give me the change as if I give her 100 .

Abanti is such a great place to get affordable shots and the music is great. The bouncer kams is such a great guy and friendly 10/10 recommend this place …

This place is fine for students. Shots are dirt cheap- start at R5. Naturally, this means they are made with cheap alcohol and will mess you up real quick.

Cheapest Drinks, Barely An Entry Fee - Free to Very Little. Good Service. Make sure you have a mask ! Always good local and internationally friendly music

Had great time in abantu long street best vibes and excellent service .... meet Malusi there u will have a great time ...thank you mr baternder MALUSI

Awesome shooters Mayan Sacrifise is the way to go... Most friendly bouncer out there who realises the people who go there are actually human beings...

Great place to go to when you want to let loose and just forget about the reality of life after a long week, would be better if there was a Dj

The original shot bar of the Mother City! You have to come and visit! Quality shots and an amazing crowd from all walks of life …

I like Abantu because they are good servings, good bouncer good bar men I like Abantu it’s number 1 in long street good vibes …

Abantu is shooters heaven, from those flaming shots to your multicolored ones with layers they're there. Drinks are very affordable here.

Great way to start a night on long street with cheap and good shots. Not much of a place to spend the night, though always a great start

Wonderful music!! Hip hop, pop, all the bangers you dance to in your bedroom on the dance floor. Just the right amount of dingy …

Bartenders have attitude they choose who they want to serve and ignore other customers honestly worst experience of customer service

Had a great time at Abantu its the best place to be and their shots are awesome good service from the bartender, Max he's awesome.

I had a great experience at Abantu, I was served by Namhla she's the sweetest bartender I ever met. I'm definitely coming back :)

The best bar in long street, good service and affordable drinks, good vibes and Jimmy excellent bouncer always friendly must try.

Okay place to chill. Bouncers need to learn some manners though. A lady that works there luckily stepped in and saved the night.

Abantu is popping fr fr. Jimmy my guy is the best bouncer at abantu and obviously long street. The tequila shots hit different.

this place is so wholesome. because of Tatenda, the bartender, i’ll definitely be coming here and making it my go to bar!!!

Best value in Long Street for sure and the ladies at the bar keep you coming back for more.

Never knew cocktails could taste this good. Everytime i'm there, it tasted as it should.

It's chilled during the day but always packed at night nevertheless it's a nice place

Nice place but too bad it closes at 2am which is too early for a club on long street.
