A popular hangout place, with a cozy vibe. Its normally packed with a lot of party goers especially on Fridays and Saturdays but with enough waitresses to take care of almost everyone. Which is one thing I appreciate their management for recognising and understanding.They also generally bring in a set of Deejays that has an upscale understanding of keeping the crowds excited.Its definitely a place worth checking out!

Great bar which occasionally hosts events like Paint and Sip which are uncommon in Dar. Great vibes. Getting a waiter can be a challenge at times. Usually pretty packed with a youthful crowd on weekends.

Unlike its within people’s residence but the music is always good.Beef Skewer is just really nice.. never tried other food but only that.HEADS UP-The place is small and sometimes its very crowded.-Services might take longer than usual but most of the time they are trying their best.-When it’s crowded parking areas become tight. But there are some security guard outside to make sure nothing happen to their customer.-If it’s crowded and you want some quick drink better go to the counter and order by yourself.

Tips lounge is one of the awesome places to kill the night. Its an open space with music, drinks, food, bar etc you can dance and meet up with friends to enjoy and have fun. Its usually lit all the time.. Also another good thing its free entrance 😊

Its a great place to party every day.. the place hypes. Its a great place to have fun with friends good place for family parties, hanging with friends. They save local and international beverages. But its kinda expensive you better equip yourself with a big pocket because if you dont you wont enjoy it. Great sound system play local and international songs.. its safe place with high security guards. Its good place to be anyday.. place to have fun and enjoy the world..

Review №16

Great place to rave for groups, not a place for a date unless its before dusk.Music is good though - just not after 3AM.Most drinks are over-priced.Given the size of the place, it tends to fill up pretty quickly.The venue is not so good during rainy seasons since its mostly an outdoor open space setup.Parking is also an issue as you mostly have to park by the roadside - incidents of collision or getting your car scratched by other drivers is not uncommon.

The pork at this place is super delicious😋😋. A must have when in Dar Es Salaam! The sumptuous delicacy locally referred to as Kiti moto coined its name from the people whose religious beliefs prohibit eating pork yet they found it quite irresistible.

Review №32

Tips was amazing, is amazing. it definitely serves as a go-to night life spot.Its an open bar with a central service counter serving those drinks you like, an additional counter to the side, a DJ set center stage in the dance floor and a variety of seating options. Low benches to kick back and enjoy ur meal, standing tables for those who want to jump into the dance at any moment.Been there once and would definitely go back again. The only downside i can think of, is that when it rains, people flock to whatever shade they can find. But the good news is, the party wont stop.

It can get crowded sometimes but wheres the fun in being alone. A cozy outdoor lounge with great music and good food, at tips is where one would find so many people some who youve lost with time, you would be shocked with how many people you could reunite with. Prices are fairly affordable i recommend a visit

Review №43

Honestly was boring, went after work Friday (or with the after work crew) and just was not impressed. Drinks were mediocre, the food scared me (they were kinda grilling too close to the rest rooms for my liking), the whole set up was too bazzare for me. The music hit home, current and stuff u can dance n unwind to, but something about the overall place just wasnt right with me and hence curtailed my enjoyment.

Perfect place with friendly youthful owners I enjoyed. Good dj mixies

Review №45

It is a good place, good food, BBQ, variety of drinks. Great for group joint. The main problem of this place is:One - PARKING!!! I am not sure what criteria is used but i tried to go park in the inside Car Park but i was told no, so had to park right at the side the road.Two - People are complaining of their cars being hit by other drivers due to having cars park on both sides of the road and so close to each other.

One of the famous chillspots in Dar. Crowded on Friday and Saturday, Sundays are the best days to enjoy the place if you are not into crowds. Wide portfolio of drinks and order the chicken and fries. Its amazing.

Review №71

The demand of customer care is high and not well attended when there is high number of customers.It might take more than 30 minutes to get a drink from a bar tender.

Da
Review №72

Great place for a night out with friends but gets easliy over packed and there isnt enough tables and chairs around to accomodate everyone. The food is great, especially the mishkaki’s but the service is extremely slow on a busy day. You’d have to follow up with the waiters persistently to actually get your order otherwise 8/10 times they would come back to you 30 an hour later and have forgotten your order or tell you that they ran out of what you asked for.Pro tip, if you’re a group of friends, one or two of you could go a bit earlier to reserve a spot before it gets jampacked.

Review №73

A very nice place for a quick drink with friends after work, as its very close to the city, and has great menu options.Only the counter areas are covered, so please note that during rain season.

A well entertaining place and meeting location with variety of people across the city especially evening hours. Its critic is with small parking space for large crowd number of people the place attracts.

Lively place always bustling with energy but maybe a bit too lively esp on weekend nights which leaves the place overcrowded. Be ready to go hiking as getting parking here can be a tricky situation😅

This is where the night begins before hitting other joints.. The drinks are affordable.. The music is good though not well distributed.All in all its a good place to visit with friends

Review №81

Its a nice cozy place, I love it. Their food was great, it was during Easter Mon when I visited this place, I loved the roasted pork I ordered, but there are few things the owner has to deal with the attitudes of their waiters as they are very moody, and there was music but no dj when I am in dar es salaam I will be visiting this place.

Review №82

The security detail is full of drama.. I was there with a friend and they didnt want to let us in since we were both girls so they told us unless we got company inside they cant let us in.. Is this a fun sport or some secret society?. Bad experience very embarrassing

No Parking Space... Where I supposed to park my car? ON THE TREE?!! Rudest staff (including masai at the gate & ugliest waiters) ever Ive seen in my life. Not recommend to visit this place if you do not want no stress.

If you want a spot where you and your friends can call home away from home, enjoy a drink together, good music, occasionally make it early enough to catch the sunset & have THE BEST MISHKAKIs in the world.. you found it.

A popular hangout for a reasonably youthful crown of socialites in Dar es Salaam. With good music, you get to enjoy an outdoor hangout in Dar. Gets quite packed on a regular Friday or Saturday night.
