Mint & Salt — Restaurant in Nairobi

Mint & Salt Bakery and Café offers a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere that immediately draws you in. The ambience is lively, with a diverse clientele that adds to the energetic vibe, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal while soaking in a multicultural experience. The wait staff are attentive and approachable, always willing to take feedback and address any issues with the meals, ensuring a customer-friendly environment.

The café is also affordable, which is a major plus for both casual diners and frequent visitors. While the overall experience is enjoyable, my last visit fell a little short of expectations. The chicken breast and fries, once a highlight, seemed to have dropped in quality.

The space is small and cozy but given it was full, there was no social distancing between customers and this made me very uncomfortable hence the decision to takeaway. It's mostly indoor seating and the place wasn't well ventilated given the number of customers. (There's only one table outside) There was no one measuring temperatures at the entry and I noted that when some customers left, the waitress wiped the table but didn't disinfect/ sanitize. The management could definitely do more to keep customers and staff safe during the pandemic. I would order again to sample more of their menu but...
