Great for an everyday stop for coffee before getting to the office. The breads are also good. Nice & quiet atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Perfect cafe in the Gombe area of Kinshasa! Ideal for remote working with good WiFi provision at a decent fee. Good outdoor and indoor seating is also available.

It's an amazing gem in the middle of Kinshasa. They have a beautiful collection of ornamental birds. The food was delicious and full of flavour!

Besides service is low and inattentive, the environment is cool and quite in downtown Kinshasa.

Very calm environment. Good connection with nature, that can pull you completely out of the urban concrete jungle. Good company of fish and many species of birds. Menu full of light and cool options that helps cool down from the 35*C of the city !

My second time visiting this restaurant. Love it though parking outside can be a nightmare during weekends. Be aware you cannot pay using visa card. Be prepared and take some cash with you. There’s an ATM down the road if you need to withdraw cash
