I like hidden gems and this is definitely one. Nice quiet place to catch up on work/some reading (as they have a library area) or just have a quiet meal which if all meals are as good as what I ordered (Jerk Chicken and Rice) then there shouldn’t be complaints.
K

Kachi Chigere

So cozy and lovely. Love the book store too. Great coffee
A

Amelia Harris

Excellent ambiance, delicious, fresh food. Cute reading book with books available for purchase. Internet is a bit slow, so bring your book here instead of your internet surfing project.

May Yusuf

Nice hidden spot to catch up on some work and relax. The food is good but quite pricey (not justified to me). Nice collection of books for sale. It is not a library so do expect some noise from other customers.

The Obihenry

You can choose to sit in or out... with a nice array on the menu..... mid priced I should say. Bonus tip: I love to sit out, that way I hear the birds singing nice tunes

Emad K.

Nice place for lunch; the food is decent. Minus one star for the obvious lack of maintenance...most tables and chairs look tattered and old and need replacement. Minus another star for the slow service...our breakfast took about an hour to be served.

I was totally in love when i stepped into this place. It was serene, lovely and quiet. Staff very friendly. Heard it has been in existence for years and obviously well maintained. They have an area dedicated for just Nigerian and african books. I bought *baba Sege wives*. Its totally cozy. If you love to read books, then this is the place to be. Very quiet. There was free wifi and food delicious. It is my go to place when i want quiet and peace

There’s a pretty great vegan option in the scrambled tofu here. Service is fairly laidback but it goes with the vibe. Prices are normal for Ajuba, good by western comparisons. Recommended.

After waiting for 50 MINUTES and pressing the buzzer 7 TIMES, I FINALLY get the menu....Lol. Read almost half a novel in the process. Funny thing is I can see the waiters having a lovely chat at the counter whilst the buzzer goes off. So to get the menu I had to physically go and ask for it. No apologies by the way. Nice cosy spot though.

The building is alright. This is said to be an NGO. If you are job hunting or looking for a good firm or organisation to build your career, please kindly go somewhere else because their system is said to be rigid and this rigidity trickles down to some of their staff in behavioural patterns allegedly.

I have always been partial to salamander. I particularly enjoy their breakfast on a lazy saturday morning. The ambience speaks of relaxation and boutique chic. Its a bit on the pricey.side and as such would reserve visits as treats for yourself, friends or special occaisions. Worth checking out especially if you are new to abuja.

Очень уютное кафе. Приятная атмосфера. Обслуживание слегка хромает, а в целом очень даже ничего! Кухня европейская.
