As a coffee lover who appreciates plant-based cuisine, I recently found myself at Coffee & Plant on General Mathenge Road in Nairobi, Kenya, and I must say, it was a delightful experience! I visited during the late morning hours, just in time for brunch, and I was excited to explore their offerings.
Upon entering, I was immediately taken by the relaxing atmosphere. The decor had a modern yet cozy vibe, and the seating was well spaced, allowing for private conversations—a detail I truly appreciated. I settled into a comfy corner, ready to indulge in the menu's variety.
I decided to try their mocha, and it was nothing short of heavenly. The blend of rich chocolate and coffee created a perfect harmony of flavors that had me savoring every sip. It was the perfect companion to my meal! I also couldn't resist trying the Hug in a Mug, which was a delightful creamy concoction that felt like a warm embrace on a cool Nairobi morning. Both drinks came highly recommended, and I understood why—they were fantastic!
An attendant named Ben provided exceptionally friendly service, making my visit even more enjoyable. He was attentive without being intrusive, and when I mentioned I was a fan of gluten-free desserts, he eagerly pointed me to their vegan options. His enthusiasm was infectious!
For my meal, I opted for the za’atar cashew cheese, and wow, was it a treat! The cheese was well-spiced and paired beautifully with a fresh selection of veggies. The flavor was vibrant, and it left me feeling healthy and satisfied. I also discovered they offer great value for food that is both filling and delicious—something that often feels hard to find!
Another highlight was the selection of gluten-free desserts. I couldn't resist trying one, and I was thoroughly pleased with my choice. The staff went above and beyond, even changing a spiced coffee for a different blend at no extra charge when I mentioned it wasn’t to my taste. This kind of service is why I plan to return!
Coffee & Plant is definitely a haven for those seeking wholesome vegetarian and vegan options. The menu is expansive, and there is genuinely something for everyone. Whether you’re a strict vegan or just looking to explore new flavors, this café has you covered.
If you are looking for a place to unwind while enjoying incredible coffee and delicious plant-based dishes, I highly recommend visiting Coffee & Plant. It’s a cozy spot that will quickly become your go-to place!
