I had coconut rice and beans with mandazi. The service was quick, and the food was nicely seasoned.

#Vegetarian options available. Coconut rice and grilled vegetables were amazing!! Also Tamarind juice is worth trying, in case you haven't. Staff was very friendly and the place has chill local vibes.

A local joint with great food and portions. I enjoyed the passion juice a lot. Try the coconut prawn curry or the pilau. Actually lots to choose from.

Adil, the owner is so kind! He offered us some samosa which we didn’t order and they were delicious. We had vegetable curry with coconut rice and grilled chicken with naan and fresh salad. Both very tasty and good portions! Definitely recommend ❤️

My family and I visited Swahili Cafe and were impressed how delicious the food was. We had breakfast and it was amazing. Fresh and tasty. We ended up going back for dinner and it did not disappoint. If you are looking for delicious, affordable meal...look no further! Definitely a must try! They also had a few super cute fur babies around that are very friendly. 10/10 recommend this place! 👌🏼
