Café Arabika

Café Arabika is my first stop when I land in Mombasa. It has a lovely ambiance and you can enjoy a lovely breeze outside with a view of the creek which is amazing especially at sunset. The décor is amazing and welcoming. The place has excellent food and it has a lot of different cuisines ranging from Lebanese food to Middle Eastern and of course local foods. I’d recommend the Lebanese mezze platter that was amazing and also the beef shawarma. They also have amazing mocktails. The staff is outstanding hosts, welcoming, helpful, understanding and their customer service is just way beyond. The view is beautiful and the weekends have good music. You may want to reserve a table on the weekends even if you are a house guest at the hotel. I’d love to go back.
