"This independent art house cinema, rooftop bar, and restaurant offers panoramic views of the Kilimani neighborhood. After catching a show at the theater, where the entertainment largely consists of African indie films and documentaries, head out onto the terrace for a cocktail (free with a movie ticket). The move is to order a rhubarb gin fizz, the perfect match for the restaurant’s pan-Asian dishes like bao and Korean fried chicken." - Wendy Watta, Soni Adriance

My favorite spot in Kilimani, such a nice place if you wanna getaway from Nairobi hectic seen, I often go there alone and enjoy every bit of it. Their food is really good so the music 🤗

Cute little spot in Kilimani with a gorgeous view of the neighborhood and the city The food which was butter chicken and rice was great although the portions were rather smaller than expected It was a decent crowd and I liked the music and the setup There’s a pretty nice cinema that you can hire for a decent amount. Would recommend

I came here for breakfast and it was amazing. It was the best cappuccino I’ve had in a while (300 ksh) and the Vanilla French toast was so delicious (850 ksh). The atmosphere of the place is very peaceful and cozy and the staff are very kind! Will definitely be coming back.

Located on the rooftop, unseen has a view that is breathtaking. The staff is super friendly and their food is to-die-for. What I enjoyed most was the fresh air and comfort of the place, you could spend your whole day there.

My two friends and I went on a Saturday, and though we didn’t catch a movie, the vibrant atmosphere made up for it. The views of the city from the balcony were stunning, especially as the evening set in. The food was a delightful surprise—especially the Korean chicken, which was flavorful and well-prepared. The Mint Mojito was a refreshing highlight among the cocktails we tried. The staff was friendly, and the crowd added to the welcoming and laid-back vibe of the place. Whether you're going for drinks, food, or just a relaxed time with friends, this rooftop gem is a must-visit. Remember to carry something warm as it gets very chilly as night sets in.

A lovely rooftop cafe, features a small cinema showcasing unique movies. Get breathtaking view of the Hurlingham views of Nairobi. Service can be slow as only a few staff but food hits the spot.
