Hi-way Lounge Restaurant
Ranked in Best Bars & Lounges in Mombasa Old Town
About
Come for the biryani — regulars say it's the best in Nyali, with just-right spice and generous portions. The seafood basket packs prawns, calamari, octopus, and kingfish all in one go, and the lollipop chicken won't let you down either. Chill vibes, server 001 is attentive, and the fresh juices are cold.

Best biryani in Nyali!” Hi-way Lounge serves some of the most flavorful biryani I’ve had! The spices are just right, portions are generous, and the rice is perfectly cooked. Their fresh juices complement the meals superbly. A must-visit for biryani lovers!

Very tasty food. Highly recommend the seafood basket. Has prawns, calamari, octopus legs and kingfish. The lollipop chicken was also amazing. Must try if passing through Mombasa.
