This place is absolutely Amazing. Everything here was truly exceptional. Great atmosphere and decor, amazing service, and the food and coffee was phenomenal. I was here as an American tourist visiting a friend -- and this cafe would rival with any fine dining cafe in America. Masindi is an amazing town -- but this place is such a Gem -- it has to be one of the best cafes in all of Uganda. Everything is served in such an artistic way too with focus on presentation. This place is Amazing.

Nice little restaurant near the centre of Masindi. One of the few places where one can get a decent cup of coffee. As is often the case in upcountry restaurants, they don't have all the ingredients in stock, so it's worth asking what is available before choosing what to order.
