About

Their chai is rich, flavourful, and brewed to perfection in little ceramic pots — you can really taste the love in every cup. Excellent customer service, friendly staff, and you don't wait long for food. Great ambience, cozy and welcoming, satisfying portions, and for KES 1,500 you get a main meal, drink, and dessert.

    Great ambience...the food was good, could be better. The chai in pots is ok, I didn't really get why it was overrated. It's just spiced tea in a ceramic pot (little ceramic pot I might add). The service was amaziiingggg!! Shoutout Imma, you made our visit comfortable and memorable! 1000/10 service!
