Road Kitchen — Restaurant in Addis Ababa

The ambiance is alright and the atmosphere can be better if you have company. The food is alright and the staff is friendly, but the language barrier creates that invisible distance. They could stock a wider range of beer. Their Heineken was great and ice cold. However, it is a general expectation that draught beer/beer-on-tap is served in 500ml beer glasses or mugs. Here it is served in a 300ml glass/tumbler. Reasonably priced though. They could add another two or three, bigger TV screens for sports...

Went for football. Owner insisted on playing music rather than commentary despite huge majority of clientele there for the game. Understand that when Brazil we’re playing in World Cup, commentary on as available. We were called ‘ selfish’. Will take my selfish, ill-gotten gains somewhere...

Lovely place! Good food! The meat is amazing, the people are cool, music is great. You can also simply have a drink with friends around the fire and every Friday there’s a special barbecue night....
