Fika Cafe
Ciata City - Kiambu Road, Kenya

Seat hierarchies, ambient mood lighting and suspended water-coloured paintings give the space a striking and disruptive presence.  The menu is even more striking. A selection of pan-ethnic dishes influenced by African and French cooking traditions all combining to deliver a unique tasteful moment. 

The cafe has a familiar minimal architecture that exudes simplicity. Linear sitting options, a 3 level colour palette combined with repetitive elements and exceptional music create an environment that is both calm and sophisticated. 

Whether South American, Caribbean, Mediterranean or African-American, the menu items will have an identifiable African origin and influence. The name FIKA is derived from the Swedish word for a coffee break. It also means to arrive in Swahili which depicts comfort and rest.
