Nice place to have European/American food. We took 2 burgers for 25.000 and they were nice, I liked even the sides.I haven’t tried them, but they have several desserts that look amazing!

Amazing new menu. Service is great as always. Burger special every Tuesday and Thursday (2 burgers for 25,000). Must try the tacos!

The food was ok, some of it even great. However, I do not understand why the employees stood at close proximity to whatch us eat. That takes away one star. The second star is due to the prices, as in comparison to other coffee shops in the area, this place is on the pricier side.

The service is quick here. The bakery section offers a good selection of bread including dark grain bread. The staff are nice and helpful. Its located quite centrally so its a good place for meeting up. My breakfast choice was okay but not really special

Very touristic BUT the food is fabulous. Service is slow, prices are high and no matter what the signs say, they will always tell you the Credit Card machine doesnt work.

Ive been here 5 years ago and it was better.Too much water in juice, the bread was NOT fresh at all, tasted like 1month ago.It was my reference 5 y.a. 🔻It’s nice coffee shop -good quality of food and coffee, but the atmosphere in general is more restaurant style than coffee shop.

Food was ok. We ordered off of the new menu - nachos were bland and burger was average. The Frosties were great as always!

Its a nice place with wifi. Relaxing atmosphere but the waitress isnt friendly and doesnt have good customer service skills. They dont introduce themselves and ask how can they help serve you today. They dont smile . They dont make you feel comfortable. But I notice they smile big, bright and show all ther teeth when its a caucasian. They are bubbly, smiling and to their attention constantly. Just my experience and what Ive noticed. Sadly to say, Im a CEO of my own and I wouldnt recommend this place. I waited over 30 mins to get my food because I waitress forgot my 3 additional sandwhich. I deserve the same treatment as any other race . Just sadI will be speaking with the owner or management of this establishment.

When thinking of having a hot coffee in Arusha, this is a perfect place. I really enjoyed unique taste of coffee and hot milk tea. Its a nice place and have excellent customer service.

Review №31

As a coffee enthusiast, I was disappointed! Coffee is less than ordinary! Cakes were all stale (we ordered three different types), and the chocolate chip cookie was dry and granite-solid. I really dont see what the big fuss is about! The staff were super pleasant, though!

An
Review №32

Lovely cafe which provides a break from the hustle! The quality and safety of food has been in the top, the times Ive eaten there. Prices are cheap and the desserts are delicious. It is not very culturally or locally - very much a place for tourists, but in a pleasant way.

A great breakfast spot, nice sitting area with a cool breeze on the outside. The coffee is great and the staff is helpful. They have really great mandazis(Doughnuts/Fritters?!), would recommend stopping by on a less busy day like a Sunday to relax and read a book.

I have been going to Africafe for the past 11 years and it has stood the test of time. A neat, organized, homely restaurant that has never deteriorated in service

Service here is good, the food is good with good variety to choose from. The coffee and other drinks served here are great as well. Its very popular during lunch hours and its not a large space so during these times seating may be limited particularly for a group.

Review №45

Nice little Cafe just up from the clocktower and Masai markets. Good for a coffee or a quick bite to eat. Wifi was incredibly slow though, and the service was pleasant but not exactly what I would go back for. Still better than most of the establishments in the area.

Review №48

Popular coffee place in the heart of Arusha. Good place for grabbing brunch, lunch or just getting together with friends over coffee.The best thing i love about the place is no music in the background to spoil that environment to have a meal/coffee over a conversation.

July 2012 - wonderful place to meet friends. Anyone know the name of the drink (coffee, either cold or hot, can’t remember) that has the name Zanzibar in it? I want to know how to make it. Anyone? If anyone reads the review and tries this place, could you ask staff me? Thx!

Nice coffee shop in Arusha, the most western one, as you’ll basically find Mzungus here ;) it’s a bit pricey for what it is, although the food is quite nice. Local is cool, comfy sofas and bench. Recommended !

My rating is relative to whats available in Arusha. Considering there isnt much around Africafe is a breath of fresh air. Great menu with loads of different types of sandwiches and some pastas. Coffee portions are huge. And the place itself is very cozy.

Its a decent eatery, perhaps a little overpriced, but hugely popular with foreigners. The quality of the food is generally good, and the servers are on average more competent and professional than in other restaurants.

For coffee lovers visiting Arusha, AfriCafe is one of the few places in Arusha where you get amazing coffee. Bet it Caffè Americano, Cappuccino, Espresso or Latte. You are sure to be delighted.

Review №77

A comfy cafe which features a nice mix of locals and tourists, which doesnt seem to be so common in Arusha. The lack of wifi may help ensure there are some seats available to get your fix of fancy coffee drinks, ice cream sundaes or food.
