Exterior
Showcasing a small menu of African dishes alongside a routine coffee range, I was up for trying one of their main courses which seemed to focus on hearty chicken and vegetable dishes.
Food
Sadly, the dish didn’t really come together any better than the description. Although the chicken was nicely tender, the dish looked very sloppy and tasted of nothing much. It was just a fairly bland stew. The couscous was similarly plain and unseasoned.
Interior
So overall, while I like the notion of a little cafe like this showcasing some unusual dishes, the quality of the cooking on display was pretty rudimentary. With more pizzazz, this smart and friendly place could build a niche for itself, but if it doesn’t improve very quickly I fear its tenure will be short and none too sweet.

Do you know if they sell baobab juice?
Not sure. Their spiced chai seemed to be the drink they were promoting most strongly…
Correction – I just walked past and they do indeed serve baobab juice
The place is really nice, and the food is amazing, i totally disagree with that review that you wrote, is very good value for money and they improving every day, before u write that should understand and give chance to people who are starting a business
I totally disagree with your review, the food is great and is a amazing value for money. I am a regular of this place and they are improving everyday. I think you shouldn’t critise somebody who is just starting a business, you dont make them any favour. Anyway, totally recomend this place
