👍 Nice little space with a good vibe for working/waiting. The omelette doesn't take 5 minutes though :)

    The Grind Cafe ..."where you grind comes to a halt!" Awesome, unique space at the Wilson Airport. This lovely cafe has a really warm, unique ambiance, beautiful, stimulating and homey. Love spending time here! They even have a library of books you can sample and borrow from. And you can get a sneak peek into a hangar and watch airline engineers working on planes! It's like watching a movie! The Grind is on the ground floor of Skyward Express Building just past the Aero Club. Warm, highly hospitable and professional staff serve delicious food (loved the pancakes and the chicken curry and the cheesy chips and the coffee and the dawa and the sandwiches etc...). Highly recommend this place. See you there :-)!

    Delicious coffee and a comfortable place to hang while waiting for Skyward flights. Staff are also fun and friendly.

    The place is nice but they served me a raw burger. I kindly sent it back with no fuss to get cooked thorough, it came back out still raw. I couldn’t eat it - the chef and cook even laughed and made a joke when I was paying(in full). Apart from the food and the jokers in the kitchen, it’s ok for a coffee! Get a new team in the kitchen before they poison people and give passengers a good poisoning nightmare.

    The place is great with comfort as you take your meals. The clock room is good but a bit of ambience can be added

    Very rude lady running the till; did not deserve our business but they benefit from their location of being next to safarilink check-in desks. No greeting on arrival and abruptly told us to remove our bags (nowhere else to go if you arrive too early for checkin). Then on ordering she barely looked at us or acknowledged our presence. Who manages this place?

    Outstanding. Great cappuccino. Best almond croissant I’ve had in Kenya. Fruit salad had local fruits, plus blueberries, grapes, and raspberries.
