Welcome to Blackout Brew Coffee House, where every cup we serve offers a moment of reflection and every visit feels like coming home.
Get to Know Us
We (Candice and Sean Johnson) founded Blackout Brew, and it’s more than just a coffee business - it’s our testament to chasing purpose later in life. We didn’t simply want another café; we want to rewrite our story together. Starting this business at this stage isn’t just about success; it’s about purpose, connection, and creating something meaningful for our family and our community. With every bean we roast and every latte we pour, we’re building a legacy, not of proving ourselves, but of becoming more authentically ourselves.
Family lies at the heart of our story. Inspired by coffee’s power to connect people and our desire to show our children the resilience of being South African, we created a coffee brand that fosters human connection, sharing, and community.
Our Coffee House
Our coffee house reflects the love and togetherness that fuel our mission, making Blackout Brew more than just a place to grab coffee; it’s a haven for connection. We invite you to join us on a journey with every sip. From ethically sourced beans to our passionate baristas, our coffee, brewed in the dark for a taste beyond the light, serves as a metaphor for existence. Whether you’re savouring a bold espresso or lingering over a creamy cappuccino, we encourage you to slow down, connect, and find solace in the moment before returning to the busyness of life.
At Blackout Brew, we’re not just serving coffee, we’re sharing our passion for life, family, and meaningful experiences. Join us on this heartfelt journey, even if just for the moment it takes to savour your coffee.
