9th Avenue Bistro & The Boiler Room Cafe are owned & run by Graham & Gina Neilson who traveled and worked in top establishments in the USA, the UK, Bermuda, South America, and South Africa. It was while traveling they concluded that there was no place like home and decided that their home town of Durban would be the place for them to make their mark.

It has been their mission to create a modern, warm and unpretentious venue in the heart of Morningside, Durban, serving fresh and creative cuisine with an emphasis on high-quality seasonal ingredients. Graham and Charlie in the kitchen strive for perfection with every plate whilst Gina and the front of house team delivers smooth, knowledgeable and professional service.

Showcasing fresh locally sourced seasonal cuisine. All dishes are exquisitely presented, from modern interpretations of Bistro classics to cutting edge gastronomy. The menu is constantly evolving and we encourage diners to try one of our tasting menus.

The wine list changes regularly and concentrates on smaller boutique wineries offering some of SA's finest, as well as many affordable options. The wine list also offers a selection of international wines and locally sourced micro-brewed beers... Every few months 9th Avenue hosts set menu dinners paired with leading wine estates from SA and abroad.
