    I finally went to Kardamom & Koffee and I enjoyed every minutes of my time here. The space is cozy with so much to do: board games, books to read, the quiet lush green compound to busk in the sun as you enjoy a glass of wine! It’s really quiet so the space works for anyone who enjoys working in a restaurant. The food, wine and service were great

    A beautiful cozy cafe in a hidden location. Very nice and cute interior. Parking on the street along the road and on the lawn. Inside you can buy souvenirs, T-shirts, and interior items. Autumn polite staff. Great coffee. With the kitchen, everything is not so simple. I ordered eggs Benedict with salmon, the bun was dry, the egg was overcooked (we asked for a runny yolk), and they didn’t put salmon in the dish but included it in the bill. In general, I think you should try the sandwiches, they say they cook them well there. There are a lot of foreigners among the visitors.

    REALLY CUTE!! It’s so cozy and a great place to chill, do some work, play board games or just have a conversation with friends. The hot chocolate was amazing.

    Such an adorable cafe. It’s super serene and quiet - great for doing some work or just sitting with your thoughts. They have a few food options and juices in addition to coffee. They sell a handful of cute crafts here too. Probably the best coffee shop for working in Kampala I’ve seen.

    Really beautiful place. It's like a home for introverts. There are lots of books and plants. The food was good. I wanted the chicken pesto pasta, but they didn't have pesto, so they improvised with another sauce. It was okay. I had the Moroccan mint tea which was also really good. It's nice

    What a green little treasure in the heart of Kampala. Absolutely recommend a little escape here. Food was fresh with loads of vegetarian options.

    The place is very beautiful, thats why I will give it 3 stars. As a vegan, I really looked forward to try the vegan lasagne. That was the most bland, unsalted thing I ate since my visit in Uganda. Even the side Salat had more flavors. It was like they totally forgot all spices and salt. I was so disappointed. My husband had rice with chicken and veggies and he said he really enjoyed it. It is also definitely overpriced for such a small portion.

    The place is very tranquil and quiet. Atmosphere is on point and you feel at peace right at the gate entrance. Service was nice and the greenery evokes a touch with nature. I’ve officially found my hiding spot.

  • 4/5 Irene N. 1 year ago on Google
    Cozy place with pleasant stuff. Food was delicious even though it took ages to appear. Has a large garden. It was raining when I was there, so I hid in the warm indoor area.

  • 1/5 Nata K. 4 years ago on Google
    The place is overall nice. Hidden in the garden. Lots of books. Delicious pumpkin soup, mediocre hummus plate. Maroccan tea was under average. The music is mostly nice and I saw people with laptops working there. Basically, you sit where is space in between different Indian and African goods. 1 star because I couldn’t just calmly sit and read a book. Even though the place wasn’t crowded and I ordered enough not to be disturbed. Also, the owner (I assume it’s the owner) wanted to teach me life. For some reason he found it appropriate, I ended up leaving in tears. Well, I hope next time he will think twice before saying something to the guests.

    Creative, beautiful, green, serene. The last time I was there was for a photography exhibition. I met some interesting people and had good strong coffee unlike a lot of places in Kampala that serve weak coffee. It’s in the city but feels like it’s out of the city because of all the calm, green and simplicity.

    Such a beautiful place surrounded by nature. The decor looks beautiful, the food is amazing and the place can work as a nice place to meet someone for a meeting or a date. The staff were friendly and approachable. Though the location is a bit hidden and ideal for those driving.

    It was okay. Breakfast fry up my choice from the limited options. Liked the Moroccan mint tea. Though i can not speak to how Moroccan it was. Loved the feel of the space along with the furniture. I would go back to just exist in the space on a rainy day.

  • 5/5 Lubwama A. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place, great relaxing atmosphere and nice service and warm people. My second time in the place will do it over and over and over. Increase closing time to 7pm....Great service.

  • 3/5 D B. 2 years ago on Google
    It's an okay place, having nice house stuff for sale. Cool place to hang if you have dogs that don't bark too much 😁 or you'll be told off with imaginary complaining guest 😉 Don't expect much from the menu but the garden and one of the owners (?) make up for the accommodation to make you feel welcome.

  • 4/5 Majid A. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a good quiet place to have some coffee and relax and enjoy. The service was good, the coffee and tea was decent and I tried the zaatar pide and it was good.

  • 4/5 Nia H. 1 year ago on Google
    A calm secluded area in a very quite street, great specious garden and some domestic friends like Priscilla the chicken🤗. Also they have board games and books. Its a lovely place

  • 5/5 Bekhie M. 1 year ago on Google
    This beautiful haven is a great place to work and enjoy your coffee all day. It’s aesthetic is very pleasing, the colours blend really well with everything. Then there’s an interesting thing about the art pieces displayed — on a rotational basis to give opportunity to different artists to showcase their pieces and have a chance to be sold to interested customers.

  • 4/5 Waweru N. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 L D. 1 year ago on Google
    A must see magical place hidden in Kampala. The waitresses are the sweetest and the Ugandan Vanilla ice cream the best I've ever had. The perfect spot for working, drinking fresh juices, tea meetings with Friends or just spending the afternoon reading 🌱👌

  • 5/5 Philip J. 5 years ago on Google
    This location is so peaceful! Because the access road is a dead-end there is limited passing traffic! The gardens look lovely and the fresh air offers tranquility rarely found in the city! A must for anyone who wants a quiet place to work during the day!
