Connect Coffee

Top choice in Nairobi


One of Nairobi's best and coolest cafes, Connect brings coffee sourced directly from farmers in Kenya, Ethiopia and Uganda to your table, and the barista-prepared offerings range from pour-over filter coffee to a popular cold brew or simply a long black. It's worth asking what's good on the day and then pondering your choices on the rather long menu.

It also serves tea, milkshakes, pastries, waffles and a selection of salads and sandwiches.
