During a recent visit to Coffee & Plant, located on General Mathenge Road, Nairobi, I found myself immersed in a world of vibrant flavors and relaxing ambiance. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by the warm, friendly staff, who immediately made me feel welcome. It was the perfect spot to unwind on a Saturday afternoon.
As I settled into my cozy corner, I decided to indulge in a few of their signature drinks. After some recommendations from my lovely server, I opted for their Mocha and Hug in a Mug. Both beverages were nothing short of magical! The mocha was rich and decadent, layered with the perfect blend of chocolate and coffee. The 'Hug in a Mug,' on the other hand, was a delightful concoction that wrapped me in warmth—a perfect drink for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
Additionally, I couldn’t resist trying their hot chocolate, which truly lived up to its name. Each sip was like a comforting embrace, reminding me of cozy winter evenings. All three drinks were part of a great selection that offered wonderful value for what can sometimes be an expensive outing. I learned that I could enjoy flavorsome offerings without breaking the bank, as they are quite affordable at under 500 KES each.
The menu at Coffee & Plant has something for everyone, especially if you enjoy plant-based meals. I was particularly impressed with a guest review that highlighted their za’atar cashew cheese—a must-try for anyone who appreciates innovative vegan cuisine. Customers have raved about the vibrant taste and variety of options available, making it a haven for both vegetarian and vegan eaters. It makes me thrilled to see gluten-free and no onion/no garlic options available, which sets this café apart as very thoughtful and inclusive.
On my visit, I also appreciated the spacious seating arrangement. The thoughtful layout provided enough privacy for conversations without feeling crowded. It’s a perfect atmosphere for catching up with friends or just enjoying a moment of peace and quiet.
Speaking of friendly service—I had an enlightening experience right on arrival! When I expressed my dislike for a particular spiced coffee option, without hesitation, my server swiftly replaced it with something more suitable at no extra charge. That level of customer service certainly goes a long way and is a key reason why I’ll be returning to Coffee & Plant!
All in all, Coffee & Plant is not just a café; it's a community hub that offers excellent food and drink options. My time there was an enjoyable blend of delicious flavors and friendly faces. Whether you’re a local or just visiting Nairobi, I highly recommend taking a break at this delightful café. You won’t regret it!
