Wow! Finally a great little eating spot in Zanzibar that doesnt try to rip you off. I had a proper NY style hotdog and it was fantastic.I highly recommend this place.

We visited Funky Monkey several times because the food was well prepared. The hospitable chef was able to veganize some very delicious meals for us. Thank you Funk Monkey!

The interior is beautiful and the menu looks appealing when advertised on social media. But in reality the menu is a bit lack luster and a lot of the menu items seem to be unavailable because they dont have the ingredients (something not uncommon in Zanzibar though!). The interior is still beautiful!Dont order the passion juice unless you enjoy super sour drinks! The fish was too dry probably because it was so thin. The tuna avocado open sandwich needed more avocado less tuna in my opinion, but was okay.I would go there again because its a cute spot but wont expect a great meal!

6500 for ice coffee that comes in 2 cups. What a joke! Stay away if youre looking for a cold caffeine drink... And the mosquitoes.... ouch!

Great food in a central spot of stonetown, but still quiet and cool to enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Compared to other places around, Id definitely recommend this much more!

We stayed at the zLife Hostel next door and had breakfast at the Funky Monkey Restaurant a few days in a row. It was really tasty every time, especially the cereal bowl. We also tried a warm lunch there once, which was also quite good. The place itself is simple but kinda stylishly furnished. The waiter as well as the cook were super nice.

Cute little spartan place, with good food and really good service. The smoothies were so good, and the salads were really fresh. Would recommend.

Friendly but no food. My sons 3rd choice from the menu was available and they didnt have any lemonade which made top billing on the board and menu. After my wifes first choice was not available either we decided to go somewhere else for lunch... Maybe just an off season fluke, but this was also considerably more expensive than other lunch places we tried and the $$ rating Google gave it. So we didnt stick around to try it out. Hope it gets better better because we were happy to see a place offering paper straws and thinking about the environment.

A really lovely place tucked away in a quiet alley in the center of Stonetown. Really good breakfast and coffee and I actually think they make the best veggie curry in town!

One of the best places to eat in Zanzibar! Excellent, delicious food, good fast internet, cash and card payment (which is rare in Zanzibar). Very nice staff and atmosphere. We went in once and come back every day, because there is no better place on the island, especially with such advantages as a good selection of food, wi-fi and cashless payments.

Stayed at the Z-Life hostel for two nights so had my breakfast in this eatery. There were various delicious dishes that could be selected from the breakfast menu. Good coffee (which is not common everywhere in Zanzibar).

The most comfortable and coolest place! I asked to cook something that was not on the menu, a traditional dish! As a result, I got a huge portion of pasta with beef, delicious chicken soup for 10,000 shillings! Husband and wife work there, they are the owners, very sociable and friendly! In the evening we sat with them drinking beer and talking!

Very cool place !!! I recommend to everyone!! This is a family cafe, where everything is very cozy and unrealistically tasty 😋 the portions are very large, we barely finished eating and what surprised me very much was the kindness of the owner, we lacked 4 $ (there were only large ones, there was no change) and he said that this is not a problem, bring it tomorrow😌 This is a solid 5 ⭐️ in every sense

A delicious fruit juice with ginger & lemon. This little restaurant is super nice in the old town of Stone Town. I highly recommend you to drop by for a good fresh juice or even eat à la carte :) The manager is also extremely nice. I love :)

The food is delicious and the price is very reasonable. We used it for dinner as it is the closest and best of restaurants near the hotel, noting that the owner of the restaurant is the supervisor of the place and the food ..
