J's Fresh Bar & Kitchen

Top choice in Nairobi


Building on the winning formula of its sister property in Karen, J's takes its DJs seriously enough to give them a permanent booth, and the food is so good that you could easily spend a whole night here. Each night's different, but Tuesday is hip hop laced with R&B, while Thursday Night Live is a good way to catch local bands.
