Oasis

Top choice in Sierra Leone


This charming little cafe is an oasis indeed. Set in a garden off Murray Town Rd, it feels hundreds of miles away from the chaos of Freetown. Though it's famous for its smoothies, the food here is also excellent and wholesome – think black bean soup, Thai chicken curry and indulgent brownies.

You can take a seat in the cosy dining room, on the breezy porch, complete with whirring fans and brightly pattered rattan furniture, or out in the garden, which has views out over the sea. Upstairs, there are several rooms for rent.
