On a Nostalgic Journey Up the Coast of Kenya, From Mombasa to Lamu

"The Hidden Gallery, located on Harambee, the main shopping street in Lamu Old Town, offers visitors a glimpse into traditional homes. Owner Swabir transformed a 17th-century house into a café and gallery, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the Swahili coast."

I tried to find this place on July 30th, 2025, and couldn't find it. A local man led me to Subira Cafe, where a woman is cooking a fresh lunch for the two of us.

Do yourself a favour and visit. Amazing service and fantastic food and drinks! Stepping into this oasis is like being welcomed into the home of an old friend. Can't recommend more highly.
