Our Story
About Majik
Van Riebeeckshof, Cape Town
A neighbourhood pizzeria
with a wood oven at its heart
Majik Pizza is a woodfired pizzeria tucked into Majik Forest Shopping Centre in Van Riebeeckshof. We are a takeaway first — built for quick collection and hot delivery — with a handful of tables for anyone who would rather eat theirs the moment it leaves the oven.
Everything starts with the dough. It is slow-proofed with no preservatives, which takes longer and gives us a base that is light and properly crisp rather than dense. From there it goes into the wood oven, where the heat does in minutes what a conventional oven never quite manages: a blistered, slightly charred edge and a base that holds its topping without going soft.
The menu has stayed deliberately readable. Thirteen classics for the nights you know exactly what you want, eleven gourmet pizzas for when you do not, and three sizes of each. Add pasta, ribs and chips, and a short wine and beer list, and that is the whole operation.
Slow-proofed dough
No preservatives, no shortcuts. The proof does the work so the base stays light and digestible.
A real wood oven
Fierce, dry heat that cooks a pizza in minutes and leaves the crust blistered at the edges.
Bases for everyone
Gluten-free and banting cauliflower bases mean nobody at the table gets left with a side salad.
