This used to be one of my favourite regular spots, this review is based on the last few visits to this particular branch. Service is extremely poor. Orders being forgotten and always a long wait. I noticed that many of the patrons outside almost seem forgotten. I have now also had the displeasure of eating multiple dry and stale croissants from this branch. Stock also seems to be inconsistent. Unfortunately what I am most saddened by is the complete lack of atmosphere. This Schoon used to play the most atmospheric music, which always made you feel cosy. Now just the sound of silence and the coffee machine. Schoon was a goodie, and I'd love to see it get back to the standard it once was.

My third time visiting schoon and for the third time the croissants were so dry I asked if they were yesterday’s stock and the coffee was weak despite a double shot of espresso. Prices are also very expensive if you’re not getting an excellent product. The staff are always exceptionally friendly and helpful and it is a beautiful little coffee shop.

Visited on Saturday 02nd Dec, for an early breakfast. The food was outstanding. However, this was completely overshadowed by the TOTALLY unprofessional conduct by the staff. My goodness, never have I felt so uncomfortable in a small bistro before where the staff were engaging in a very public altercation with each other. The lady in particular was being off- handed and totally disrespectful to the poor guy behind the till. If we hadn't ordered our food before the inter-staff spat started, we would have walked out. It was that bad, and made us feel that uncomfortable. Staff should NEVER have a fight in front of customers. Ever. Unfortunately not even great food can persuade us to go back again. The staff's conduct left an extremely bad taste in my mouth. Service Dine in Meal type Breakfast Food: 5 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 1

Schoon is always a treat. Great coffee, tasty pastries, a variety of breads, and AMAZING breakfast (the croque madame will blow your mind). The service tends to be on the slow side due to number of patrons, but the atmosphere is so nice you will only be peeved if you're in a rush.

We popped in this morning to grab some croissants for take away, and ended up walking out with way more! Their croissants are light, fresh and fluffy. They have a wide selection of croissants ranging from pain au chocolat to almond croissants(which has almond filling in the centre). Their vanilla cherry donut is to die for! Another notable mention is the peppermint crisp donut and the sour dough bread. Will definitely be back!

Very small and cosy restaurant, bakery and coffee shop serving an appetizing selection of breakfast and light meal options as well as a waist wrecking array of baked sweet treats. The real gem here is the bread. Schoon bakes a variety of breads that are amongst the very best in the greater Somerset West/Stellenbosch area. Some breads are only available on particular days of the week. Drop in, have coffee and buy bread! Note that they do not accept cash.
It was a pleasant experience. We only had coffee but it was served by a friendly waitress. We sat outside and it was nice to see the world go by. I believe they also bake wonderful bread. Tasted their Sourdough Bread this morning. Bought it at Butcher and Son.
Very nice place for breakfast. Solis coffee and sourdough is perfect Service Dine in Meal type Brunch Price per person R 150–200 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Beautiful interior setup, loved the coffee cups. Outside sitting is great for the fresh air breeze while sipping that flatwhite. The bakery tops my list for now in the helderberg area. Please pay a visit and prove me wrong. #supportlocal #tipthewaiter
