Fishmonger

Harare


This atmospheric seafood restaurant in a converted house with a Mediterranean-inspired decor is very popular with locals. The weekly specials are always worth a look, but otherwise expect the likes of grilled Kariba bream, Cajun blackened calamari or good ol' fish and chips, to enjoy indoors or on garden tables. Most of the seafood is imported from nearby Mozambique.

Its lively bar with open fireplace and inexpensive beers and cocktails are another reason to visit.
