Bamboo Cafe & Restaurant

Upon arrival we asked if they could accommodate a group of 10, they said yes. 3 dishes were delivered to the table after an hour. A half hour later we were told they couldn’t prepare the other dishes/ meals. Very poor service.

Very nice cafe, unfortunately not very good quality of the food at least at breakfast. Big wrap with lots of stuff in it but way too oily and just not very palatable. My friend asked scrambled eggs and got a omelette but it was decent, the chapati wasn’t however. The cappuccino was the highlight as I asked if there was soya milk and I got a salty cappuccino that turned out to be with soy sauce. We had a big laugh and sent it back but didn’t get charged at least. The ladies were very nice and trying their best but not with great results.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for coffee, a snack or a meal when around the Clock Tower. Food is delicious and the atmosphere relaxed, casual—and it’s not stuffed with wazungu tourists!! Much preferred over Coffee Culture (too western) and Africafe (too touristy).

I've given this place 5 stars because there is one waiter that goes over and beyond customer service. He makes this place looks good. He always smile and have a warm greeting. He makes sure if you have cold tea or coffee that its warm. He even tighty the bathroom for me just to make sure its suitable before I went in. He check on the wifi to see what he can do to have services run longer. He made an extra step to make sure I have cheese even after they ran out. It's the little things that count. His name is Kantona Jacob. I am a CEO of a credit restoration company and I will tell anyone to come to this little coffee shop in the town of Arusha and met this young man. You will not be disappointed. Excellence at its best with this great waiter. Met him and you will understand what I mean plus leave a tip.

Loved the meal .. well prepared and looks exactly like the pictures on the menu Prices were friendly too

Bamboo is open, with a new menu. We tried the tomato soup, it was very good. Service was fast and friendly.

2 hours waiting for the food and the chef decided to change our order because there aren’t some stuff not even asking. The women in charge didn’t do anything.

Pricey, but good quality food. Mostly Western dishes. Good place to get some work done.
