Greens that don’t feel like a compromise
At Bossa, salads are anything but boring, from our vegan Earthchild (mixed greens, mushrooms, roasted carrot ribbons, green beans, edamame, radish, avo, cashews, house vinaigrette) and the dependable Greek and Caesar salads, to our meaty options with steak or chicken.
Wrap it right
Balanced flavours, easy to eat, and perfect for a working lunch. Our toasted wraps are another reason Bossa sits among the best lunch restaurants for professionals on the move. Choose from steak and tzatziki, grilled chicken, pulled pork, vegan, or crumbed chicken.
Steakhouse standards, Bossa personality
From Old School Cheesy Sirloin to Pepper Jack Fillet and Chateaubriand, our 35-day-matured AAA-grade beef cuts are seared for flavour, finished with signature sauces, and served with sides your way.
Burgers for every craving
Our juicy 200g beef burgers, chicken burgers, and vegan burgers are all served with beer-battered onion rings and chips (or seasonal salad). Unbeatable flavour you can enjoy every day, and if you’re looking for a deal, don’t miss out on our Burger Monday, when you can order any burger (except the Baconator Devastator) and sides for only R95.
Pizzas with character
Iconic rectangular thin bases, Italian pomodoro sauce, and mozzarella. Build your own or pick favourites like Carnivorous, Smokey Bae, La Med, Mexicana, or the most popular option, the Nacho Libre.
