Last Saturday, I had the pleasure of visiting Artcaffé at the Rubis Petrol Station, Hurlingham, Nairobi. It was a serene afternoon around 3 PM when I decided to treat myself to something special. As I walked into the café, the relaxed atmosphere immediately enveloped me, exuding warmth and inviting comfort.
Being a bakery, coffee shop, bar, and restaurant all rolled into one, Artcaffé offers a diverse menu that can satisfy anyone's cravings. After browsing the options, I was particularly enticed by the Sliced Chocolate-indulgence Cake and the Sliced Carrot Cake. Both were beautifully displayed in the case, making it hard to resist!
My decision was further made easier by the friendly attendant at the counter, Felix, who recommended the Sliced Cappuccino Cake as a fan favorite. I couldn't resist his enthusiasm and decided to give it a try. He assured me it was a delightful choice alongside a cup of their rich coffee. The experience felt personalized, like having a chat with a friend.
The Sliced Cappuccino Cake was nothing short of spectacular. With layers of moist cake and creamy cappuccino frosting, every bite was a dream. The deep coffee flavor paired harmoniously with the sweet cake, truly creating a unique fusion of tastes that lingered long after I had finished. Not only was it delicious, but it also highlighted the quality ingredients that Artcaffé puts into their baking.
What’s more, the cakes are reasonably priced, providing incredible value for the quality you receive. I can't recall the exact price, but for what I enjoyed, it felt like a steal! It’s comforting to know that I can indulge in such rich flavors without breaking the bank.
As I sipped my coffee and savored the cake, I noticed the bustling atmosphere of the café. Different groups of people were enjoying meetings, catching up with friends, or simply unwinding after a long day – a testament to the welcoming environment fostered by the staff. It truly suited my needs for a quick bite as well as a relaxed setting.
If you’re ever in the neighborhood, I highly recommend stopping by Artcaffé. Whether you're in the mood for a loaf of freshly baked bread, a pastry paired with their robust coffee, or simply looking for a cozy spot to hang out, Artcaffé has you covered. This delightful spot is perfect for family outings, casual meetings, or that personal moment of indulgence you crave.
I can’t thank Felix enough for his recommendation; it made my visit unforgettable. I left the café with a smile and a full stomach, already planning my next visit to explore more of their menu.
