Black and White Coffee Shop

Gorgeous Bali-style brekkie/brunch/lunch spot in the heart of Lagos old town, with a clean, modern interior, high ceilings, and some relaxed outdoor seating on the street. It’s super popular in the summer months, so expect a queue—sometimes up to 20 minutes or more. But it’s worth the wait. The breakfast and lunch menu is fresh, vibrant, and consistently good. I love the avocado toast with poached eggs for breakfast, and the Buddha bowl is a favourite at lunchtime. Their pastries are also amazing—especially the almond croissants and cinnamon buns. If you’re short on time, pop next door to their takeaway coffee shop, which serves the same great pastries and coffee with almost no wait. Staff are usually very friendly, though things can feel a bit rushed during peak tourist season (understandably so when it’s packed). Personally, I love visiting in the winter—it’s quieter, more local, and the service feels especially warm and attentive. One of the best spots in Lagos for brunch or a quality coffee break.

We came here after seeing the Google reviews, and the long line plus the variety of croissants and pastries made me want to try it. We had the avocado toast with eggs, which was okay but lacks flavor, you need extra salt and pepper. The egg toast with bacon was super delicious, and the chocolate croissant was my favorite, so good! On the way out, I noticed they also have a croissant with goat cheese and spinach, which I’ll definitely come back for. The coffee is excellent too, and the staff are the friendliest, always making the experience even better. Highly recommend this place if you’re in the area and want a good breakfast.

Great place for breakfast/brunch with really good coffee. Every time I've been there's been a queue outside for a table but it usually doesn't take too long. Nice and cool inside and the staff are friendly. I love the breakfast burrito and bap. Vegetarian friendly. They also have a second location a couple of doors down which just do takeaway coffees and pastries which is very handy if you're on the go or don't want to wait in the queue but still want a good coffee

Very cool/ hipster place in Lagos for brunch/ coffee. We tried different dishes and they were all good. We enjoyed the fact that both Portuguese and international people worked here, and were all polite and with good vibes. Would visit again!

Black & White Coffee Shop is a super trendy spot with an impressive variety of options. From freshly baked viennoiseries to healthy choices, everything is tasty and made with care. The vibe is modern and stylish, making it a great place to grab breakfast or a mid-morning coffee. Be prepared though—by 9 a.m. there’s already a line out the door, which says it all about how popular this place is.

Don’t bother going in search of a coffee anywhere else in Lagos, this is by far the best coffee and pastry shop we have had in our time here in Lagos Portugal and May be our entire 3 months away from Australia. They open earlier which is great for us early risers to find our favourite brew. The Coffee was full of flavour, hot and made with love from the barista on duty this morning, sorry did not get his name. Would 100% recommend this Coffee Shop.

Great overnight oat and yoghurt bowls. Very hearty and healthy. Combine it with a latte and you’re good until mid-day or the beach. This place has a line to sit down so we went to the takeaway counter next door and took our breakfast to the Old Town square and sat down to enjoy by the green house

VERY GOOD COFFEE! The pain au chocolat was also excellent, and I definitely recommend trying it. The queue looked long at first, but it moved surprisingly fast, which was a nice surprise. That said, charging an extra +0.5€ for oat milk feels out of place for a spot like this — a bit of an orange flag in my view. I’ll still give five stars for the taste, but this oat milk thing takes away from the overall vibe
