As a frequent visitor to cafes and bakeries around Nairobi, I recently stumbled upon a hidden gem at the Rubis Petrol Station Hurlingham: Artcaffé Argwings. I stopped by last Saturday around 3 PM for a delightful afternoon treat, and I must say, the experience exceeded my expectations!
Upon entering, I was instantly embraced by the inviting atmosphere. The beautiful decor combined with the pleasant aroma of freshly brewed coffee made me feel right at home. The staff greeted me warmly, and I was promptly attended to by a lovely waiter named Kevin, who guided me through the menu with enthusiasm.
I decided to indulge my sweet tooth with two standout items: the Sliced Chocolate-indulgence Cake and the Sliced Cappuccino Cake. Just look at the decadent slice of the Chocolate-indulgence Cake:
This cake was rich, moist, and the perfect companion for a cup of their expertly brewed coffee. The balance of flavors had me savoring every bite. The Cappuccino Cake was another fantastic choice; its light texture and espresso flavor was simply exceptional — a lovely treat for any coffee lover!
Kevin recommended pairing these cakes with their signature coffee, and wow, was he right! I appreciated how the well-crafted cappuccino provided a nice complement to the sweetness of the desserts, creating an explosion of flavors that delighted my palate.
What struck me the most was the value for money. Each slice of cake was not only visually stunning but offered a high quality that truly reflected the care put into every dish. The ambience and attentive service made it feel like I was indulging in a luxury experience without breaking the bank.
I spent approximately 450 KES for both cakes and a cup of coffee, which I felt was an incredible bargain given the quality of what I received. Ask for Kevin when you visit; he ensures that guests feel comfortable and appreciated, making for a truly memorable dining experience.
If you're ever near Hurlingham, I highly recommend making Artcaffé Argwings a destination for your next coffee or dessert outing. The comfort, quality, and warmth of the staff add to the flavors of this wonderful eatery.
In conclusion, my visit to Artcaffé was not just about having a sweet treat; it was about experiencing the heart and soul of a great bakery-restaurant. I left feeling not only satisfied but also excited to return!
