The Taste of Fire

Our Delicious Story

Welcome to The Firebox, Durban’s home of authentic flame-grilled chicken! We’re passionate about bringing you bold flavours, juicy perfection, and that unmistakable fire-grilled taste in every bite. Whether you’re craving a quick meal, a family feast, or something to spice up your lunch break we’ve got you covered.

North Beach Cafe was established in 1998 as a convenience store and then evolved with a sit down restaurant with seating on a deck overlooking the ocean.

Proudly based in Durban, we also offer fast and fresh deliveries within a 3km radius, so your favourite flame-grilled goodness is always just a few minutes away. At The Firebox, every meal is grilled with care, served with heart, and packed with flavour!
