Description

Located in the leafy suburb of Karen, the restaurant is built on the site of the original farmhouse of Karen Blixen.

Diners have a choice of dining in the cosy indoor restaurant with an adjacent outdoor terrace and garden, or in a variety of function areas such as the Grand Marquee Sultan style tent, all located in the middle of a large, formal garden with jacaranda trees, candelabra cactus, and bottle brush among 200 species of flowers - a great place to enjoy the peace and tranquility of rural Nairobi. Grogan House, moved brick by brick from Taveta, is great for private dinners.

On weekends and holidays, music groups perform (jazz, modern music) while guests relax in suede chairs in the long, open verandah.
