My overall favorite cafe. Id always come here for cakes. They offer one of, if not the best, pastry selections in Dar. ALL of them are tasty. Food quality is satisfactory with many options. As for ambience, it varies depending on when you come. Its a popular spot, so it can be packed during usual dining hours. Still, do come here for pastries. You wont regret it.
I liked the atmosphere a lot and they had a decent selection of pastries which is what I was after and they tasted really good.. My husband got an egg breakfast meal and said it was nothing special. Price and portion size couldve been better on that meal. Service was a little slow but we werent in a hurry so it was fine.
Very good coffee, the food tastes great, the staff is nice and working professional, the location is comfortable and nice, wifi is working good and the price is OK, not cheap, but also not tooo expensive. You get a burger including fries, which is not everywhere like this for that price. And I was so happy to finally eat a delicious pain au chocolat, which I missed so much. Photo comes next time. We went 4 times and have been always happy at the end.
Love their mocha frappe and cheesecake!!!! The ambience is wonderful and staff are well trained...Good value for money, decent portions and bonus points for ample parking!!!! Would have given five stars had it not been for the wait time for dine in which in my experience has been quite long on more than one occasion... But defo a regular spot for me and would strongly recommend this place.
A place to relax,food are great.Eg:waffle、blueberry cheese cake and one starter name beef slighter?!(might be wrong name).There are best iced latte in masaki which one you can not miss.Pizza and pasta also nice.This shop is so popular,sometimes can not find seat.And it”s bad for health to stay closely for each seat during Covid-19
I had the strawberry cheese cake and a caramel shake or something, whatever it was, amazing. Really enjoyed the dishes as well as the ambience. Staff are friendly, they give good advice on what to order for people who fuss like me 🥴A friend ordered a Belgian chocolate cheese cake as well. It was creamy, rich and delish. Their prices are also decent and at par with the market.All in all satisfied.
Probably best cafe in Dar! Dessert are what they are known for but try their pasta and burgers. Wont go wrong. Their low fat iced vanilla blonde latte is better then Starbucks! Ambiance is sleek and modern.Service is great!
Orchid is servicing nice coffee and beverages. I like my flat white the portion of espresso and milk. They are using good coffee beans and the barista is doing a nice job.Dessert i preferred cheese cakes either blueberry/ Belgium chocolate cheesecake.I have not yet tried other than cheesecake.Usually we would like to order salad, pizza and pasta. I like their hot and delicious food it’s worth waiting.I prefer seats on high table as the sofa are too soft will have to move a lot when you are having food and drinks.It’s a cafe with nice food, nice coffee good location for parking easy to go. The service attitudes is fair probably becoz they don’t need to push sales by providing better customer service.
Ambience and service is great. I feel our server wasnt well informed about the menu, hence the 4 stars. Otherwise it seems like a great place.
Definitely my favorite Cafe in Dar!!! Can’t stop going there I absolutely love it! Great customer service, good food, decent drinks and a super chill and friendly environment! I’d also like to argue that they have the best cakes in Dar! If you go there you must try their choco fudge cake and if you’re a coffee lover their mocha frappe! Their Alfredo pasta is soo good too!
Ordered a cappuccino, sirloin steak, cheesecake & fresh passion juice.The steak was average at best if not below. I ordered a medium rare steak and it was very chewy, the quality of the cut was not great and the fat was not rendered properly. The peppercorn sauce and mash alongside were pointlessly well made.The strawberry flavour on the cheesecake was nothing but artificial and extremely sweet.The fresh passion fruit juice and cappuccino were perfect.For the amount of hype this place has generated, I was quite disappointed. Hopefully my next experience will be much more positive.
As a Brit, travelling to Tanzania, the standards of this cafe are top notch! From delicious food to hospitality - I give it 5 stars!!
Cosy, casual, minimalist new café in Dar.Very spacious and laid back vibe which is always nice. The background music was mostly mainstream International pop when I went but at a non-intrusive volume.You must try the blueberry and belgian chocolate cheesecakes!!!I also recommend any of the smoothies, great flavour and consistency.Their food, even appetizers/smaller plates come in good portions and are reasonably priced.Definitely worth passing by.
Conveniently placed Cafe in Masaki with ample parking available.Atmosphere: Quiet and Comfortable seating, with slow background music indoors and also have outdoor sitting for smokers.Food, Desserts and drinks: enjoyed the beef wrap, and chicken pasta in white sauce, freshly made juices, and coffee.The waffles were Great!!! Definately going back for them!!
Rest room location on the floor plan makes me want a better interior design. The location must have raised debates during the plan implementation
Good ambiance and tasty deserts. My fave place to get a desert or cake. And must try their creamy pasta is great value for money!
Food was fantastic ,but your staff need a little more customer service training. I will definitely eat here again.
Food was delicious; however, they should be trained to bring out the complete meal all at once. Ive been told that this is customarily the case, and that needs improvement.
Went here on monday night, the place was very cozy and quiet and there were quite a few people there... Beautiful artwork and design on the walls! Comfy seats, and clean place overall.The staff were pretty attentive.We ordered the blueberry cheesecake, mocha frappe and iced mocha, everything we ordered were DELICIOUS!It reminds me of the taste of my home (philippines)I would definitely come back!
Spacious cafe, where you can relax, get some work done, and have good food. The mood is abit, i dont want to say gloomy, but low, maybe its the dark colors, but overall great place. The smoothies are perfect for the hot Dar weather, mixed berries wins it for me, 5 stars. Foods great, service is nice.
A spacious coffee shop to get some work done or catch up with friends. Goid wifi. Good service.
First time there, with fam. They introduced me to it. Lovely memories made. One has to live in the moment. Nice place to bring my dad for a piece of blueberry cheese cake and some time together.
Such a lovely place with great customer service. The food is also really good and the ginger tea really gives you that ginger punch!
Nice ambience ,choice of foods and drinks all delicious .and most importantly very reasonable
Good ambience good decent location , good service , nice cafe with some good testy bites ..
The pumpkin spiced iced Americano was great!Been here a couple times in the past few days.Very nice interior, good service, and the cakes look decent.We were supposed to eat dinner there a few nights ago BUT didnt, as I am currently on a strict cutting phase and there was nothing grilled/healthy on the menu that we could eat.BUT, had a great coffee there instead!
Nice place for quick coffee, lunch meetings.... good Internet connection 😀
It was amazing..but there was elegancy in the waiters..
The food was really delicious. I really enjoyed my time there, the service was a bit slow but it is understandable since there were a lot to customers.The environment was really nice.
Good customer services, delicious food, lovely setting and well trained staffs
My favorite café in Dar. As soon as I walk in, I feel like I’m in Chicago, or Denver, USA. It’s just such a nice and upscale spot, you never wanna leave. I can say the same about the food. My faves are: French toast, teriyaki chicken, mushroom pasta, Hawaiian pizza, and the espresso drinks. The staff and management are just lovely. A must-visit if you’re in Dar.
Great ambiance, Super Delicious and Affordable meals. This spot has been my favorite and i think Im already addicted to their meals. The place is quite, clean and everything you order from the kitchen is just delicious. Good place for a business meeting with a partner too. I love the place!! Congratulations and please keep the standard!
Nice café...good for casual meets
Reccommend this Cafe for meetings, relaxed Vibes and snacks, unfortunately the eggs bendict i got was not good, but i hear they have great english breakfast, the service is good when its not busy, can seem pricy for some of the serving sizes, but the taste is worth it, just not the eggs benedict 😅
Orchid is one of out go to breakfast spots post surf. The food is always great and the staff super friendly and helpful. They have one of the best pizzas in town (Greek mama). Definitely worth a visit.
Desserts and coffee. After trying butterscotch cake and blueberry cheesecake, I can honestly say I have never had such a divine cheesecake. Melt in your mouth and sublimely delicious. returned for a 2nd visit ××
Incredibly calming ambience. the cakes and coffee is good too
Nice place to have short meetings over coffee.
Fancy! I thought the food and drinks were well priced and there was a decent variety to choose from. Youll find a high chair and low chair side, I found that peculiar and cool. The pastry delicacies looked scrumptious...
Have heard quite a review of their cheesecake, went to try on today, and it was a turn off.
Good ambience and service but Most of their sockets dont work. Im always looking for cafes to work in this was such an inconvenience.
İn general so good the food specially tasty. However, the offer of desserts are quite expensive and judging by the cheesecake it can be considerably improve to deserve the 12.000 that cost.
Speciality cakes with great taste.
Great foodWarm ambianceGreat customer service
Amazing place! Good ambience.. good for work! Value for money.
Cheesy Egg Croassooo with Double Coffee that was for thr lunch on this stressful tues.
Very nice place. Customer service 100%. I was met by staff Mwanaidi, she is very good on customer service. We had coffee and cakes all are very tasty. Keep it up and maintain the service
This might be one of my favourite go-to places for impromptu meals. The food is affordably priced and tastes delightful! I keep ordering the Chicken & Mushroom pasta with their extra spicy chilli sauce, but Ive eyed other peoples dishes and they look just as amazing! I LOVE their caramel frappe, and their desserts are on point! I appreciate the speedy service, very professional.
I enjoy my visits here! The staff are really nice and the food is good. For breakfast, the french toast is tasty and for other meals, the greek pizza, sandwiches and soups are good options. Must try their desserts!!! I mostly come to have a nice place to sit and work...theres plenty of space, outlets and fast wifi.
Excellent ambience, appealing decor, lovely dessert
Good customer experience. The manager has good peoples skills. The food could have been better compared to other coffee shops
Food is great and wonderful. And great service inside the cafe. But a disappointment on how the guards do not know how to speak with people. I often go to orchid either for business lunch or breakfast or personal. After having breakfast today, I went to my car and was inside with my wife and we were having a conversation, a guard came up and was on my windshield peaking inside. Where I rolled down the window and he said Im not allowed to sit in the car at the parking and he had the audacity to say that if I want so spend time with my wife I should find a hotel. During our back and fort, my wife asked me to just go and let him be. I would say this, I might not be a customer who adds much value but I feel this is the last time I will ever visit orchid cafe.
Perfect place for a quick meeting, a cup of coffee.They know how to make good coffee here.They also sell alcohol but its not on the menu. Ask the waiter of what they have.
Good service n quality food
Loved the ambience. The food and drinks was on point as well!
You won’t regret visiting the place , very much excellent and relaxing ambience👍
Yeah I enjoyed it here because it has a rare quality in this town: consistency. I havent had a bad meal here yet. The entire vibe is plush and the staff are very suave with the service.And theyre keen on feedback too, which is nice: I once commented that the music selection made me want to claw out my ears. It was Ed Sheeran and the usual garbage on a five minute loop. Every. Five. Minutes.Theyve since gotten tasteful with the playlists (Lo-Fi is great, feels upscale) and now I cant fault a single thing. Its quite perfect really. See you again.
Great deserts... although service was so slow... people spend a lot of time here... lovely place to meet friends for coffee and deserts.
Great service, the food was prepared faster than expected but there were few people so not sure how fast theyre when its crowded! Overall, it was a good place to hangout ☺
Waited almost 40 minutes for the food, and when arrived, the food was coldEven the bill took longPoor experiencePoor servicePoor food
Nice decor. Its a good place for meetings or taking a laptop to work but also works well for lunch with friends etc. The evening ambience could be improved - it feels a bit sterile and not very lively. The food is noticeably better than other similar cafes in Dar. Over three visits Ive had a burger, steak wrap, eggs benedict, iced cappuccino and passion fruit juice. All were very good. The eggs, burger and steak were not overcooked and tasted great. The staff are very friendly and helpful, although it would be good if they were trained more on details of the menu so they are better equipped to answer questions. Definitely somewhere Id visit again.
