    A little bit surprised it is in a gas station. But generally the environment is pretty good. And also it's the best cappuccino I had since I landed in Tanzania. Chicken wing is also not so bad. But the sauce is a little bit sweet for me. Overall, it's good.

    📍Nice cafe with lovely interior. Located at the Puma petrol station this place is very cozy and can accomodate many groups. 🥖🍔 The food was very delicious we went there for our sunday breakfast and everything was available from bagles to english breakfast. 💲 The price are average and the portion is enough 👨‍🍳 The service was fast and the waiters were skillful with the knowledge of the items in their menu. Thank you for your service.

    Interior is good! I liked the staffs as they treated us politely, and gave us a great service. The food quality was outstanding. I recommend to visit once and make sure to grab some desserts.

    Delicious food! Comfy café with a beautiful setup. Great menu items for brunch, but also any meal really. Highly recommend the waffles, lemon iced tea and wraps.

    Located inside a petrol station, perfect place to chill and catch up with friends or enjoying your own company. The staff were friendly. It turned out to be a little noisy during rush lunch hours for a work meeting. I would visit here once again.

    Seating was very comfy and air conditioning was very cold. Lots of good choices on the menu so it was difficult to choose, but incredibly satisfied with the bagel sandwhich I got. So good and unique. Haven't seen anything similar in Dar. My husband who has gluten and dairy allergies had quite a lot of options on the menu. He ended up getting a wrap and you can substitute the tortilla for an egg! He was impressed and very happy. Needless to say we will be coming back to try more.

    The food was excellent and I would highly recommend it. The rice bowls are worth your money. The burger was not as good as the rice. The fries were also great. Service was a tad bit slow perhaps because there were many people at lunch hour. Atmosphere was okay and clean.

    Amazing nutella blanket !! Best place to come get something nice in deserts and coffee. They also have free wifi !!

  • 5/5 Amat R. 3 years ago on Google
    Love this place, interior is great. Waffles taste nothing like waffles, more like cake baked in a waffle shaped cake tin. But they taste good so I'm not complaining. Besides that, Mojito is great.

    There are many kinds of foods and drinks. Also, sofas & tables are comfortable. Breakfast bagel tastes good. I’m willing to revisit to try other menus.

    The food was very nice, service was okay but the restaurant was packed I think it’s time to open another location since the customers are sharing table with strangers which makes us uncomfortable.

    Good coffee shops are not many in Dar. This one is absolutely excellent. Good food, excellent coffee and desserts. Not far feom airport, it's a good place to secure you won't miss your plane and you'll still have a good moment before taking off

  • 5/5 Baraka M. 3 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Sunday M. 3 months ago on Google New
    I ordered a hot chocolate It was 9 thousand a cup without a cookie.. I dont think it had milk in it. It was rather light.. full of cocoa and cream on top. I wud grade it 4 out of 10. The place is nice.. the service was superb... Its small but not overcrowded... u can have ur coffee in peace.. And they also have wifi.. Parking is limited if theres more than 20 cars...

  • 5/5 Jackson J. 2 years ago on Google
    Really nice place for working in the evening, the menu is very nice.

  • 3/5 Jurassic M. 8 months ago on Google
    What I liked: good wifi, great iced cappuccino (though pricey). Tasteful decor. What they need to improve: the restrooms are unclean and soap dispensers in the restrooms doesn’t work. Also their servers need more training and not push customers into buying more items on their menu unasked.

  • 4/5 Honest C. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice quite place for lattes and coffee. However I would prefer is one tables order comes together and not one at a time. It's very awkward that one person has completed their coffee whole the other ones order is taking time. And while the other is having their the first one has to wait. Some efficiency in completing one tables task together would allow that friends grouo or couples or family to enjoy their drinks together instead of separately ..the main purpose to come out is also to spend time together such delays kills the entire purpose.

  • 4/5 Evans M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for quick meeting. Space is a bit limited. And I honestly think they can improve on seating design/furniture to make it more accommodating. Great coffee and food as well.

    A less known place in the city center behind the patrol pump.. The setup is #wow and they have kept it fancy and beautiful.. We ordered a #beef #burger and #aroma #wrap along with a mint #lemonade.. The wrap was placed perfectly.. and the lamonade in that hot whether was delicious.. Customer service and relationship could be improved for a perfect spot.. A favourable place for #breakfast or #brunch

  • 3/5 Rachel & M. 1 year ago on Google
    They serve almost anything; breakfast, wraps, sandwiches, bagels, burgers, salade, rice bowls, … Typical african style of western dishes. Alle served with fries. We ordered a club sandwich and bagel. Tasted fine, nothing special.

    Do NOT have lunch at this cafe EVER🙅🏾‍♀️ I ordered sticky wing and an hour later they served tiny over fried wings dipped in tones of ketchup and spring onions to garnish 🤦🏾‍♀️ When i complained they literally told me ‘it is what it is’ 😢

    Great and cheap coffee place which also serves good lunch and and main dishes. The burgers for just 6.000 or 7.000tsh are great. Especially compared to similar places where burgers normally cost 15.000 to 20.000tsh. The coffee is also great and you can nearly choose very kind of coffee you want. Definitely a recommendation!!!
