Established over a century ago, the Cape Bar and its members are housed in Chambers situated along Keerom Street next to the Western Cape High Court. A street that has become synonymous with the daily morning parade of advocates in their robes making their way to Court.

This tradition, of robing in Chambers rather than in Court, was brought about by a protest by members of the Cape Bar against discriminatory robing practices at Court, and has continued to be a tradition proudly honoured by its members today.

The Cape Bar strives to ensure that its 488 members render the highest standard of legal services.

Its premises offer world class facilities to accommodate arbitrations, these include conference venues, high-speed internet access and many coffee shops and restaurants within walking distance. One might even enjoy a walk through the neighbouring Company Gardens during an arbitration adjournment.
