Zanzibar Coffee House is both a boutique bed & breakfast and a café, but we came mainly for the rooftop, and it did not disappoint.
When you enter, you’ll see the café downstairs, but don’t stop there. Walk all the way up the stairs to the rooftop. You’ll be rewarded with a beautiful 360° view over the rooftops of Stone Town. It’s a lovely perspective from the heart of the city.
The service is very pole pole — slow in a good way. The design feels authentic and local, and the overall vibe is chilled and pleasant.
For drinks, we had:
• Mango lassi - absolutely delicious, no added sugar, very fresh and healthy. Highly recommend.
• Lime & coconut lassi - more like a milkshake and quite sugary and too sweet. Tasty if you like sweet drinks, but we preferred the mango.
• Fresh passion fruit juice - excellent and refreshing. Definitely recommended.
They accept card payments and USD.
Overall, it’s a great spot to enjoy Stone Town from above - perfect for a couple of drinks or even a relaxed meal with a view.
