Incredible atmosphere! Go on mondays because that is the day they play the best jazz shows and most people come- but come a bit earlier because it is really crowded and seats get taken at around 8:30 pm. The owner was super pleasant and welcoming. Overall amazing amazing experience and high quality music. A MUST VISIT in Addis. Very cheap entrance price of 100 birr per person

Amazing experience - we came on Friday night for an Ethiopian band & dance troupe. Each musician was great and the dancers were fantastic - real athletes. The room felt like a real home for jazz or world music. The next night we went to Yod Abyssinia, and that was nice, but not like Fendika which was really phenomenal.

Great place to experience of sending a modern Ethiopian culture. Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday that are performances Monday jamming session was something else! Fantastic stuff! The crowd is very friendly and seems intellectual. There is a small gallery inside plenty of drinks, including tej.

I loved everything about this place from the vibe to the atmosphere. The place to be for afro jazz and cultural music. Ttere was a live band performing that was nothing but amazing. Another thing is I never felt unsafe at any moment. Everyone was friendly and oh I had to pay B100 that goes to the artists. Based on their performance they probably deserved B500.

my healing place in ethiphia. jazz , traditional dance in ethiopia and wonderful atmosphere! Meluka is a genius. I miss already!!

Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Wait Time: under 30 mins Atmosphere - Super Crowded Fendika is a tourist hotspot with live music, dance sessions and karaoke vibe. Details: We went as a group and had so much fun. It was super crowded and we sat on some chairs on the ground along with other people who looked pretty diverse. There was interactive performances with the fingers coming into the audience and carrying people on stage. It was fun and nice to see the trafitional neck and shoulder dances of Ethiopia Large injeras were served with a hot boiling meat. We ended up on stage winging 'No woman, No cry'.

Terrific Ethiojazz club with an Uber cool vibe. It’s popular with expats, tourists and locals alike. Includes local and visiting artists either rotating bands that change during the week. Monday is the busiest evening and features legendary bassist Henok. If you get there around 7:30 PM and order something to eat, you can reserve a spot where you will get the best views of the stage and best photos (flash not allowed). We preferred the younger band in Wednesday (Abyssinia) that covered Ethiopian classical songs in a jazzy format. Open three evenings a week (M, W, F) with music starting at 9:30 PM. There is an art gallery at the back as well as a souvenir shop. There’s often a fire going opposite the bar. Super atmospheric and unique venue!

Live music start at 2200 in Fridays. But you have to be there at 2030 for good chairs.
