Mgoza Restaurant

Malawi


With shaded palapa (palm-leaf) shelters in a garden facing the lake, this is a cool spot to chat in the friendly bar or chill outside and take dinner.

Located at Mgoza Lodge, the restaurant serves up great full English breakfasts, healthy fruit smoothies and, come evening, fresh fish and great burgers loaded with fried onions. The garden is an atmospheric dinner-time setting.
