Reviews
What a magnificent club. We had a delicious lunch by the pool with exceilent service.
We did have difficulty getting. We are members of a UK club with reciprocal rights. Despite a letter of introduction and a phone call the day before, getting through the gate was difiicult. However, in fairness, once in, we felt we were in paradise.
Interestingly the website does not do credit to the pool area, which is charming.
We're now plotting how we can fit in another visit before our return to the UK.

Was here for the 25th year anniversary of Java. They have great customer service 😍!!!
Very private, tight security, sumptuous meals, serene ambience, and friendly customer service
Scenic beauty, chirping birds make the place heavenly
Loved the ambiance, just as I remember from when I was younger. The pink walls feels like time has stood still!
The food was mid, however the pianist playing definitely elevated our evening 🤩
Recently played padel here & have to say - I am more inlove with the sporty side than the restaurant/lounge side.
The rooms are really lovely and very colonial 😊

If you are an artist and want to paint in the open or if you want to take your kids out for painting sessions then this is an ideal place for it
Offers quick, tasty fried chicken and a variety of sides. The service is efficient, and the seating area is clean. Perfect for a quick meal or takeaway.
I love it all of them delicious food everything
Why would you delivery spicy chicken yet I've ordered original

We had two double crunch burgers, normal sized fries, large fries, three pieces of chicken and soda.
The service was a 1/5. The waiter was reluctant explaining to us what was available.
The large fries didn't look large. They were very little.
The double crunch burger was not the size of the burger seen on the advert. What you get is not what you ordered.

I eat at the java here and use the galleria toilets. Always clean and have tissue. The stanchat too doesn't have queues.
Beautiful place with an outdoor sitting area. Great customer service and good coffee quality brewed with love.
They have ample parking with high tech exit controls
Meet your friends in style... it's a relaxed place with views of the airport road, fresh air and good services are offered... waiters can see you as you enter and they attend to you as you take your seat...
This is a freat and hidden gem in the upper regions of riverside. I visited bith tge spa and the restaurant. In the spirit of calling a spade a spade the service from the restaurant is very slow. Took me 30 mins after sit down to be attended by a waiter and ecen then i called the reception while in and another hour for the food to be served. The food is however very delicious and tge portions are very generous.
The spa was however a very awesome experience. The receptionists at the infinity wellness have to be the most kind hearted people at the comolex. There was this briwn one very respectful and motherly wish i could remember her namw. The jaccuzzi and massages are to die fir.

Excellent course in the middle of Nairobi
The experience was awesome. The service was fast, the staff was kind and polite, and the food was finger-licking. The ambience was cool and peaceful. The kind of place you can step into to enjoy a great meal away from the bustle of life.
The food is very stale and unpleasant to look at. Fries cold and taste like they are a few days old. The staff, especially the ladies very rude not professional and ignorant. The sink is disgusting and brown, not approachable. Smelly floors and tables/sticky. The sanitary level of this branch is terrible.
Good and reasonable at Galleria mall . Quick grab and go delicious chicken items.
Overall all good.

Good food. A bit pricy but I was just in Nairobi for a day. I don't have the context to tell whether it was truly privy or not. Spent just over 1000KSHS for breakfast. Good thing is I was allowed to stay there the whole day, charge my devices, use my laptop etc. Proper cafe vibes.
Great atmosphere, great food and very friendly staff
Good place to play Your Hames and membership are amazing
Great club with world class golf courses ⛳️

Sometimes, it can get quite busy, but the staff here really do their best to serve the crowds efficiently.
The food is hit or miss. Sometimes it's great, other times, it's not. Some days, fries are seasoned, and other days are not. The same goes for the flavour of their chicken coating.
It's really a game of 50/50 when you place your food order here. But yeah, give it a go if you're around.

It was pretty decent. The sushi bar was closed so I had to pick random bits, went for a few starters which were really nice. I wasn’t expecting the nachos to be as great as they were so that was a nice surprise! I would defo recommend the tempura prawns but I didn’t have a main so that’s all from me.
Great selection of dishes and drinks. The coffee was nice, the food good and the service was quick and attentive. Nice 👍

Immaculate lawns, friendly and helpful staff.
Gives exotic vibes, love the place, the ambience is serene!! The waiters are awesome, friendly and so helpful. They're all always eager to help hehe, great experience
There are plenty of coffee shops in Nairobi, but very few offer you the space and atmosphere to both relax and work. This place is a beautiful option to work from when you're away from home – definitely a must-visit
I tried the medium-well burger, which was amazingly delicious, and my friend had the avocado sandwich, which looked fantastic. We're definitely coming back because their desserts looked incredibly tempting. Personally, I can't wait to try them.
My main focus is always guiding people to places where they can be productive while enjoying themselves in a great working atmosphere. AGAIN, If you're ever in Nairobi, this spot is a must-visit.
Cheers,
BN

We heard a lot of good things about Le Grenier A Pain and really looked forward to it. (We visit different parts of France every few years and have some experience with French food and pastry).
As vegetarians we did not have many options. We had the egg and mushroom toast and mediterranean toast with balsamic lettuce cappachino and hot chocolate . They were both exactly what their names stated. For the prices we were disappointed. Especially the hot chocolate that tasted like cooking chocolate stirred in. French chocolate - IYKYK. So we took off a star for value for money.
For desserts we had an Eclair, Caramel layer cake, Salted caramel tart took home Macarons, and Multigrain bread. The Eclairs and tart were tasty, the cake too sweet and not enough flavour of Caramel. Macarons were seriously sweet and dry like biscuits (not cookies) and did not have the almond flavour to the biscuits. The filling flavours were good. So one star was removed for pastry taste. It would be nice if the pastries (which are not on the menu) were labeled with names and prices so we don't have to bother the busy staff behind the counter to differentiate each one.
Perhaps the non vegeterian dishes were more flavour filled, delicious and worth the price. This is however our review of our experience.
Service was good and food came promptly as possible on a Sunday Morning for brunch. The staff were well informed about the menu and table service was spot on.
The decor and ambience is lovely. It gets a bit loud that you can't hear each other well.
On a side note/and not reflected in my review of the cafe :
The WC (not part of the restaurant) were abysmal. No soap, no bog rolls, and filthy and had no baby changing space.

They have mastered the art of a members club. This place is more than amazing. They have the secluded areas where you are expected to behave, and there's a more chill relax side "pinks". It's a members only club so don't embarrass yourself at the gate. Heated pool, tennis court, bowling area, formal dining area, and many more amenities.
Has a nice , chilled indoor & outdoor set up. It's a good spot for hangouts , solo or with a group. The service was great.
Excellent breakfast and brunch place in Nairobi. The space is big with modern industrial design. The pastries are refined and far superior than any other boulangerie in the city. If you love cakes and pastries, this is the place to be. Service is excellent. Sandwiches are also great. You can do your things with your laptop especially in weekdays. Highly recommend. They close at 5 and that's their only downside so far.
I don't know where to start, but this is a beautiful and wonderful place. The place is cool, lovely, and wonderful, the view ambience and staff were all amazing.
The food was delicious and sweet,very affordable too.
Our waitress, Maureen, was so friendly and kind. She took us through everything one by one with utmost care and understanding.
Words can not describe how wonderful the place is and the experience we had here.
It's definitely a place to visit. It's charming,quiet,peaceful, and so beautiful.

It's leafy and tranquil setting belies its proximity to Nairobi CBD and the bustle beyond It's confines.
The layout is not long by modern standards but the design offers a challenge to higher handicappers while still being enjoyable for good golfers. I found the greens to quite quick with less break than expected.
Avian enthusiasts will enjoy themselves as several bird species including Raptors can be spotted around the course. Hole #9 has a big colony of yellow billed kites.
There's also an interesting juxtaposition on the front 9 where a boundary wall separates the affluence of Nairobi from the biggest slum in Africa - Kibra.

This is an amazing course. The lawns are well kempt with amazing views. The staff are also very responsible and conversant. Just make sure you survey the areas that you aren't supposed to pick your calls while in.
The staff at Argenti make my day and keep me coming back. Special thanks to Chef Lewis, Oscar on the hot plates, waiter Isaac, waitress Philadelphia. I'm grateful. I can't forget Zipporah from the state house Rd branch. God bless you guys.
A great place to have breakfast plus the ambience is chilled out and awesome to get some work done. The food was amazing! I loved the make your own savoury croissant, it had ham, smoked salmon, creamy cheese and some lettuce. I'll be back specifically for this.
The self service process is a bit slow though I suggest, you get QR code for your menu and put it at the entrance or the sitting area to help someone know what they'll have before they get to the payment counter.

The Security team has really improved. .
They are welcoming, proffesional and warm.
The security Supervisor Tarus and their security leader Mr. Steve are great and an asset to the company.
Veggies had onions burnt,but food was amazing nonetheless,we had the fillet/mash &chicken/stir fry..
Irene the waitress is good, but the WHOLE LOT of the team are in need of serious proffesional training,guest handling, greetings and curtsey.. .they lack Drive, Energy and Enthusiasm for the Job.
Grounds are lush and beautiful.
Pool area could do with a facelift sometimes soon

Nice, cool and relaxing ambience. Buffet is AMAZING! A place I can visit over and over again. Buffet price is reasonable (from KES 2,500 per person). Other menu items are a bit pricier.
Had a Niçoise salad! Decent dressing but wasn't too happy about the rest of it. It was edible but expected more, especially for the price. Have had better at a much cheaper place.
My partner ordered a filled croissant. He says it was just as good as those available at a locally popular supermarket chain, except at multiple times the price.
Service was excellent and everything else on display looked delicious. Will stick to pastries next time.
Update:
Went again, 5 months later and our experience was largely the same as before.
If we ever do go again, it would be to take away a few pastries.
P.S. they managed to burn our coffee. Too bitter and overpriced for the quality served.

One of the best wildlife sanctuary I've ever experienced. Eating tropical fruits salad in the middle of wildlife sanctuary's restaurant is an amazingly beautiful experience of natural environment, the real habitat of wilds. 🌳🐵🦁🦨🐦🐍🦨
Best test food available here. Fast and safe services. Love the way they are treated me.
Lovely Sunday Brunch with live cooking and bottomless mimosas, a live band service great music, by the pool side
Food was good, no complaints there. Service was exceptionally slow, worth mentioning. Hand wash basin was a mess considering there stickers at the door indicating how surfaces are cleaned every 30 minutes. Would be advisable to change the old dispenser plus tap with automated non contact ones, in this age of Corona.
Very calm and amazing place to be in. I enjoyed the views from the rooftop bar, which oversees the greens. The service is OK, but slows down as the patronage increases. The prices are quite considerable. The selection of drinks is great, but not vast. The facilities are well maintained. The air in this place is so different from the rest of the city. I will for sure visit this place again. Oh, thir food is great.
Went there for lunch and the place looks nice and friendly staff. But I was upset as this dish which is made from French fries and fried chicken took almost 40 minutes to be ready while the place was not busy nor many ordered food as majority were drinking coffee. And I was not happy with the dish taste. I’m giving an extra star just because of the friendly staff.
It is very chilled and offers a very comfortable environment. Their chicken is amazing and the service is self service. It's among the major fast food stops in Kenya. I especially like their inside setting the lights brings a chilled mood. It is a good place to catch up with friends
Love their Oreo shake. So refreshing in a hot Saturday afternoon!
Situated in such a beautiful and peaceful environment. Great table service, very kind waiters, great food and amazing drinks. Ideal place for a date or a quiet hangout with friends or family.
The best of the best no doubt.
Amazing food, you'll find yourself here again. If not for the ambience it must be the secure parking, if not the parking it must be the hospitality, if not the hospitality then you probably missed out on one of the best restaurants Nairobi has to offer.
A hidden gem in the heart of Riverside.
Ideal for a runaway dinner with your loved one, corporate meet up with business clientele and not forgetting brunch dates .
Amazing 🔥
