Courtyard Cafe

Top choice in Zambia


A part of the boutique Mukwa Lodge, this attached restaurant is hands down Kitwe's best place to eat. Its menu is split between Portuguese and Indian, and both are authentic and exquisite. Its classy decor comprises flagstone floor, heavy wood furniture, French doors onto the garden, plenty of windows and exposed red brick.

The lodge is in the process of shifting its restaurant across the road to 17 Mpezeni Ave, most likely to be named Cardamom. If you're heading to Chingola, also keep an eye out for its new restaurant there called Cumin, which is scheduled to open 2017.
