Inside the first 'proper' WCafe

Alittle over a year ago, Woolworths quietly opened a new look WCafe at Waterstone Village in Somerset West, with a fresh offering aimed at capturing a share of the dinner market in the region.

The new format store, which trades until 10pm, is officially a “test” but the group says there are more in the pipeline.

It takes the core WCafe menu and expands the offering from lunch substantially.

Think prawn avo ritz, 35-day matured rib eye steak, fish and chips, spicy kasi wings, rotisserie chicken, new options as sides, ice cream sandwiches (with its trademark speckled eggs) and malva pudding.

The store also has a wine and cocktail bar with a selection of classic cocktails and wines from its increasingly popular WCellar stores.

The choice of location for this test is telling, being diagonally across the N2 highway from Somerset Mall.
