Sarit
Ranked in Best Shopping Malls in Nairobi
About
One of Nairobi's most established malls with a massive Carrefour, a lively food court, and solid kids' play zones on the first floor. The layout is sprawling — locals joke you enter in Westlands and exit in Addis — so give yourself time to wander.

Sarit Centre is one of Nairobi’s best malls. It is spacious, well laid out, and easy to navigate, though there are jokes that you may enter via Westlands and exit in Addis Ababa. It offers a great mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment. There are excellent restaurants, cafes, cinemas, and family-friendly activities, all within a clean and well maintained environment. Parking is convenient, security is solid, and the mall never feels overwhelming despite how much it offers. A reliable go-to whether you are shopping, meeting friends, dining out, or spending the day with family.

Sarit Center had a really lively festive atmosphere when I visited over the weekend. There were several live performances, including a small vocal group, a larger live music ensemble, and a choir, which all added to the Christmas vibe. The mall was heavily decorated, with a large Christmas tree in the center and plenty of festive setups around for photos. Santa, Miss Santa, the Grinch, and elves were also walking around taking pictures with kids, which made the place feel fun and family-friendly. Beyond the festive activities, there’s a lot to do at Sarit Center. You can watch a movie at Century Cinemax, go bowling, or take kids to places like Extreme Jump, which looks like an obstacle-course-style play area. There are also many food stalls and dining options spread around the mall. It does get quite crowded, especially on weekend afternoons, and seating areas seemed mostly full. The mall can also be a bit tricky to navigate if you’re new, but there are maps placed around to help. Overall, it’s a great spot to visit during the holiday season if you’re looking for an energetic and festive experience, though visiting earlier in the day might help avoid the crowds.

Huge wall with many different stores. You have a large carrefour shop as well as Airtel and safaricom to purchase sim cards. It also boasts of a Kids space. You can find about everything you need.

There is a kids corner in first floor where a good number of kids activities take place. There is learning activities that do not only entail learning but also entertainment. There is science which includes; .making slime. .milk explosion 💥💥. .elephant tooth paste. Solving mathematical problems through interactive and entertaining ways, mind blowings games e.g chess. Then kids can have rides on electric toy cars and scooters.

Very big mall. The food court was great lots of different options. The falafel place is great stopped by many times. Elevators need some work unless you don't mind waiting very long just take the ramps to go from floor to floor.
