Went for lunch with a friend and was so pleasantly surprised by this spot. The food and service were fantastic! I had the Moroccan wrap, which was absolutely delicious, and the hummus and pita bread were equally wonderful. It's great that they also offer gluten-free and vegan options. I can't believe there's a hidden gem like this on General Mathenge Drive!

Delicious plant based vegan and vegetarian friendly restaurant! One of my favorite cafes in Nairobi for the food the offer, it’s delicious healthy and comes out fast! The menu has a lot of plant based items and a full plant based vegan cheese menu, including vegan charcuterie boards! There are lots of coffee and hot drink options and the restaurant is quiet with fast Wi-Fi and lots of seating options great for meetings or working.

The coffee shop is a really nice spot to hang out. Super chilled with very good coffee. What more do you want. The service was a little slow and one of the drinks we wanted couldn't be made for some reason. Service was good otherwise. Would definitely go back.

I visited this restaurant on a weekend, and it had a warm, welcoming ambience with just the right amount of buzz. Our waiter was exceptionally friendly and attentive, even taking the time to help us choose the perfect meal based on our preferences. I really appreciate that the menu is inclusive of vegan and vegetarian options. It had clear indications of the ingredients used, something you don't see often enough. The experience left a great impression, and I’m already looking forward to coming back to explore more of their delicious options.

Amazing food and service. With one gluten-free and one vegetarian teenager I never had such a delightful experience in a restaurant full of delicious options. One has to wait a little bit for the food, but this is only as a side effect of everything being freshly made. Delicious food! Many options for dairy free coffee specialities. Lovely setting.

Has a great ambiance with friendly and efficient service. The waiters are welcoming, and the food is light, delicious, and soothing. The sun dried tomato platter is a must-try. Fully vegetarian and vegan-friendly—a fantastic spot for a relaxing meal.
