The coffee ceremony is an old tradition ritual that serves as a vital opportunity for family and friends to connect and build their community bond.

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Kileleshwa. Delightful, relaxing and welcoming vibe. Superb single estate coffee from Kenya and several other East African countries, roasted on site. Delicious Eritrean and Ethiopian cuisine. Great place to hang out and enjoy for a couple of hours.

WILL NOT RECOMMEND - Came with my family following the strong reviews. Very disappointed and would not return.Pro: nice decor and environmentCons: see below.We were a group of four. We ordered: A pasta arrabbiata, full English breakfast, meat samosa, Jebena coffee, flat white, dawa w honey. The service was very slow, albeit being the only sit in customer at the time. Food and drinks came at the same time, so we were left without a drink for a long while.Food: the pasta was extremely spicy! You will find pieces of green bird eye chilli in the arrabbiata (which is a very unusual thing to find). I had one bite and my partner brought it to the staff’s attention. I indicated that I do not want any more/other food and the food was taken away. The full English breakfast was equally poor - it had no flavour at all - we had two bites, and the rest was left untouched.We had asked for a shot of milk as well to serve with the black coffee. To my surprise, this shot of milk, is charged at 100 Ksh.Our total bill was Ksh 3600 - charged at full price, and nope, no one came to discuss the experiences, the meal, why was it not finished, what can be done.We paid and can’t leave quick enough.

Nice place and good service and great coffee. However, there was only one vegan breakfast option but it was just okay, would love to see a vegan protein or side other than just zucchini and eggplant mix served with bread.

Excellent place , good for unwinding over an Ethiopian coffee with light snacks and bitting.Only issue I saw was that the chef was handling food with bare hands and no cap . Did not eat my chicken salad completely after what I saw. Yucks 🤮Check their kitchen before you order the food. Coffee is fine though. I enjoyed the rest ...

ABSOLUTE WORST Business in NairobiI called to pick up some coffee Beans – I selected a 1 kg bag that was clearly marked 1 Kg and paid for it. I was then told it was only 800g – Okay whatever.I was then told that I could not have one off the shelf but they would get it. A couple of minutes later, I was told that it would be 15 minutes.I was running late, so I said that I could not wait and could I please have my money back. The staff just ignored me. I asked again and again – politely at first. Not one of the staff did anything – they did not even have the courtesy to answer me. I had to ask or demand my money 9 times!They kept me waiting until they brought the coffee – by this time I was very angry as I have never been so badly treated by so many staff members in my life.I insisted that I get my money back and will never go back. If they cannot even label their coffee the right weight and if that is how they treat customers, I would not be risk to eat or drink there.

Visited yesterday 1/11/22. Ordered a double latte and a hot chocolate. I specified that the latte should be very hot. It was lukewarm at best. We paid and left only to find that someone had parked behind us and we couldn't leave. The Askaris informed us that the owner of that car was at Kesh Kesh. A female staff member in a traditional Eritrean outfit was adamant that he wasn't there. She kept passing notes to the Askaris which was highly suspicious. Long story short, we missed a very important meeting because the owner of the car showed up 40 minutes later. He was indeed at Kesh Kesh apparently meeting with the owner or manager. He asked why he wasn't called earlier since they all knew where he was. That whole experience left a really bad taste in out mouths and we have no intention of ever returning and neither would we recommend it.

Their cappuccinos are something close to perfect. The food is nice, too. I come 30 minutes early for lunch meetings to have some alone time with the latte art and crema. Truly world class.

Kesh Kesh is wonderful for a brunch. The environment is chill and the menu lives up to the hype. If you wanna try Eritrean cuisines, check it out.

This place is amazing! Light and airy ambiance, friendly staff with good service, and amazing food!! I had the shiro (best while hot) and immediately texted my friend to ask her to come with me sometime to try it. I had a demoralizing day before coming here but left feeling better. Will be back to try their coffee!Update: they have moved locations and the new ambience is lovely while the staff and Eritrean food remains just as wonderful. Check out their house-roasted coffee beans too. Adding some photos of the new place

EXCELLENT place, great service, FANTASTIC coffee, delicious tasty food. 10/10. Have already been coming back. Also so many lovely touches that make this place a gem. Eg the Ethiopian coffee comes with popcorn and incense - made my day. Beautiful cozy yet fresh ambiance.
