Nice place with well prepared and tasty food. We had wraps, though need to consider to add a few more chips (they were about 10 on the plate) with salad as standard (it's a minimal cost). Chairs a bit hard too.

The menu offers a great balance of healthy options and comfort food, perfect for patients, visitors, and hospital staff alike. I tried the chicken pie with a pineapple mint fresh juice and it was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. The atmosphere was calm and inviting, a nice respite from the typical hustle and stress of a hospital environment. The staff was courteous and attentive, ensuring that everything was clean and served promptly. I also appreciated the affordability of the meals, considering the convenience of its location within the hospital. It’s clear that they’ve put thought into catering to the needs of a diverse clientele. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the hospital and looking for a satisfying, stress-free meal!

The best café I’ve ever visited in Nairobi Interior Just look at how beautiful, bright, and simple it is inside. The interior is perfect! There’s plenty of warm light and a minimal amount of ornate decorations. Real grass grows in the planters along the perimeter, not plastic imitation. Kitchen The kitchen is partially open — they have nothing to hide! It’s spacious, bright, clean, with an excellent ventilation system. It’s a model to be emulated. All dishes are prepared quickly, I’d even say swiftly. Waitstaff Everyone works at the highest level. Polite, courteous, not intrusive, they understand you the first time, speak excellent English, and are fast and precise. They approach you delicately to ask if everything is fine or if we need anything else. Exemplary work by professionals. Food The food is delightful! Every dish is exactly as it should be. Portions are large; you won’t just enjoy delicious food, you’ll get full. The vegetable cream soup is a real treat! The most common mistake with this type of soup is too much butter. Here, they avoid that mistake — the soup is perfectly balanced. The burger is the ideal size, not too small that you don’t get enough, and not too big that it’s hard to bite into. The meat is cooked to a beautiful dark-pink color inside. The vegetables are fresh. The mashed potatoes are soft and tasty, with perfect consistency, not too stiff but not runny either. Even the simple rice with vegetables is well-prepared. You don’t just eat it, you savor it. The desserts are good but could improve. We tried the volcano and the tiramisu. The desserts need a better balance of flavors; they shouldn’t be just sweet. Next time, I plan to try other desserts. Prices The prices are fair. They allow some room for tipping. I hope the entire team shares tips, including the kitchen staff. We were very satisfied and will definitely come back many times. A wonderful café!

Beautifully decorated ,very clean, super cozy and comfortable. Wait time for the food was very reasonable. Their coffee is on point and the chocolate croissant was divine👌. Unfortunately had to return our waffles as they where undercooked. The staff handled it very well and in a friendly and professional manner. Definitely worth a 2nd visit

The food is amazing! The services are good. Waiters are really warm, friendly and helpful. Very beautiful place. It might be discouraging since its inside Nairobi hospital but it’s totally worth it. Good value for money! It’s an amazing spot for Sunday brunch
