Cozy and nice place!You cant miss cafe latte,the best one!Smell great and taste well,but the price is higher than other cafe shop.Ive tried waffle/pizza/pancake,waffle is better with strawberries on the top.This time i order chicken waffle,so strange this one,waffle with fried chicken on the top which is spicy.It tastes really bad

A spacious coffee shop near the city centre (downtown) Dar es salaam. Very tastefully furnished. Good service. You can sit indoors or garden. Nice for kids too as theres a play area with supervision

Super nice modern space. Good food. They have a great yard and swing sets for kids to play on. Since it is a popular place, it was a little noisy inside the Cafe.

It is a nice place and has a comforting and great customer service. Went there for a quick drink as well as a meeting. The staff were welcoming and very quick on serving. I ordered a smoothie and it was tastier and nice. My friends ordered shakes and nice tea. They both enjoyed their drinks and will definitely come back to eat their burgers for my first experience was awesomely great. The place is cool and quiet, with enough space to accommodate many customers. And yeah, the service is quick and on point. So in a nutshell, my first experience here was as good as expected, so will come back next time.

Cute place to chill and even take pictures! Their staff are alright... and their food is average. I personally like their sweet chili wings with fries!

Only come here because the kids enjoy the garden. Sad that they no longer put any effort in it. Otherwise good place to catch up on your reading.

Finishing and design, superb. Great staff! Menu needs improvement (opening menu as they say). Its the perfect breakfast location, yet only two breakfast dishes, and they are just too little for breakfast (better go with the pizza). Children play ground and garden is great! Very child friendly. Could be a bit loud for people without children, esp on a Saturday morning.

Small but excellent menu. Great coffee, food and service. Wonderful servers. Relaxed, comfortable indoor seating with large windows for natural light. Outdoor seating area looks great for families with children.Edit: They have recently extended their menu. Tried their fried paneer burger, which was delicious. There are a good amount of vegetarian options. Food quality and new options are great. Their lemon iced tea was refreshing though a bit small. Staff are amazing as usual.

Its beautifull, Great Designs, Wonderfull finish and great service! Menu Is. limited Though, Could Expand it a little, Great Place For Kids To Engage and Play, There is A Playroom as well Allowing moms to catch up as kids are immersed in the games! Might want to get a little more handy with the washrooms though, not very friendly!

The servers are quite disrepectful, literally The manager is very rude, and no one deserves to come to this place honestly such a bomb. But big thanks to Latifah for the amazing service she deserves an upgrade.

Review №21

Lovely place with good ambiance. Its perfect for families with kids because of the play area outside. The food is yummy and looks great. But I would advise the management to find an alternative way of making their fries. Their fries look great but have no flavor. Makes me wonder if they use real potatoes or those from bags. Otherwise, everything about this place is fantastic!

Another wow place along Barack Obama drive. Central Park Cafe has great options. The staffs are also very friendly and sharp in serving you. I was glad to find some puzzle and mind games that kept us good company as we enjoyed our brunch. The place is quiet and chilly too. Recommended for dates, meetings, children and simple family outings

Great atmosphere, good food, various drinks and friendly staff. Tsh5,000 for a kid to play in. The only weak point is that waitresses are tricky when it comes to the payment. Its the best place to chill.

The ambiance of the Central Cafe is impressive, and the seating arrangement is comfortable. You can sit outside in the lawn or inside the cafe. They have free WIFI and a few places to charge your phone. Their smoothies and milkshakes are amazing; I love the stomach soother smoothie. They also have good burgers and wraps. I didnt try the dessert, but they looked appetizing. There is an area for kids to play too. There is also a nursery, but I am not sure if it is connected to the cafe. The washroom needs improvement. It is a bit pricy, but a nice place to visit once in a while to relax, to treat yourself, or to get work done.

Central Park Cafe is amazing! Its such a great spot to relax and enjoy a good meal or drink. The vibe inside is so chic and cosmopolitan. The owner really did an awesome job designing the cafe space and surrounding gardens. My child also had a ton of fun in the outdoor childrens park and the indoor childrens area. Highly recommended!!

The location it’s awesome, the surroundings are clean plus it’s safe but what mostly impressed me it’s was the girl at the counter she went far beyond her way to make sure the WiFi which was not connecting through my phone was well dealt with until it connected. I had expresso and it was strong and I loved it, kudos. 👍🏿

The food is tasty. But the kids have quite a nice place to play. Their sessions with the todlers are also great. Gives parents some time off while the kids enjoy tree times a week. Mothers cab relax enjoy some fresh drinks or coffee and read a book. Few hours to yourself.

Love this place! Its kind of in a hidden area with limited parking space. The good thing about it is there is a guard who will help you with the parking, if there is no space, he will find some space.The coffee is excellent. The food is very good too. There is not to much on the food menu, but I love that because it makes it easier to choose what to eat. Also, all the food that they do cook is extraordinary. The Cafe is very clean and rustic style with large glass windows to give it a touch of modern. There is outside and inside seating. Great place!

Beautiful setting with excellent coffee. The decor was really good with an an outside inside feeling. Has many plugs so you can work as you enjoy your meals and coffee. Family place and could get noisy when the families with children come in. But in general lovely place at Upanga.

Central Park cafe has a great location, awesome surroundings, good food but terrible service. I went there for lunch with a friend, and I had to google their number to ask a manager for us to get service. Even after calling we waited some more and no one came to even attend to us. So we got up and left. It’s not a great place to go to when they are busy. You will get disappointed with the service. As much as I like good food, I like it better with great service. I personally don’t see myself returning there anytime soon.

Review №85

Had heard about another café nearby but for some reason it remains closed on Tuesdays so went here instead. It was a wonderful surprise, because it just looks like a small ordinary café from the outside, but its very spacious and cosy inside. It has outdoor seating too with a nice garden. The interior is carefully designed and decorated adding to the relaxed ambiance. The coffee was good, it couldve been better but adding up the courteous staff and pleasant aura, it was worth the money.

Astonishing that so far there is only two reviews of Central Park Cafe. Ever since I went there i knew Id be a regular. Its neat, quiet and with a spacious garden and nice servings. For me Id do evenings, coffee, iced tea etc...but has a kids playing space ,much suitable afternoons

Top notch cafe in Dar! If you are looking for a relaxing, laid back cafe with great ambiance, comfort, and really tasty food, Central Park Cafe is the place! The staff were welcoming, attentive, and with warm smiles and greetings. The indoor decor is super inviting and comfy (great A/C on a hot day), and theres ample outdoor seating if you need a dose of fresh air! Plus, great outdoor play space for the kids. But of course, all of that would be for naught if the food wasnt of good quality...and thankfully Central Park knocked it out of the park with the food! Fast service (ready in about 15-20min), and really nice wraps, coffee, and pasta. Menus is an impressive spread, ingredients fresh, and all-in-all a really satisfying brunch spot! Oh, and do not miss out on the baked goods/desserts! The warm chocolate brownie is incredible, and your palate will be thanking you for days for that warm, chocolatey goodness! For sure will be back!!

A Cafe which is also known as Petite Park. They have a good brunch, lunch and dinner menu. There is free WiFi. Indoor and outdoor sitting with a small playground for children. The staff are friendly and the menu has a variety of vegetarian option. The coffee is also good - at the moment they use coffee by Fugo.It is a nice place to come just for deserts and milkshakes.
