Ozzie's is easily one of my favorite locations in Accra! It's less busy and crowded than the upscale venues, and I love that there isn't a formal dress code. The service is a bit slower, but the food is delicious. Drinks are moderately priced and their palm wine is fantastic. The owner is usually around and has wonderful stories to share. The beach is clean and calm with seating in the sand. There are many cozy areas to sit for different vibes depending on what you're looking for.

With a little renovation or artistic touch here and there, Ozzie's can easily compete with the best beach side...

It would definitely be better appreciated on a sunny day. They only accept cash or momo. This isn't necessarily bad.
The bad: I paid for my meal via momo. After, I got up to leave I was approached by the waitress and asked to also pay the transaction fee for the momo. In essence I would be paying three times (1- for the food, 2- the fee for sending the money, 3- the fee for the recipient to be able to withdraw the money). This singular act alone of requesting that I pay the fee for withdrawal ruined an otherwise...
