Brunch · Loresho Ridge
A farm-to-table cafe, farm shop and garden centre on a two-acre plot beside the University of Nairobi agricultural farm. Wood-fired pizza, a long wine list and a Saturday farmers' market make it a family weekend fixture.
The garden is genuinely large, and the cafe's own story page invites dogs, noting that some enjoy the small dog run.
The cafe's site states plainly that dogs are welcome and that there is a dog run, with indoor and garden tables. No leash rule is published, so keep the dog leashed around other diners and children; Mondays are closed, and the kitchen takes last orders about half an hour before closing. Source: shambacafe.co.ke story page for the pet policy, restaurant page for the hours.
The pet policy above is summarised from the venue’s own published information and cross-checked against public listings. Last checked: against the source on . Policies change without notice anyway, so confirm the current one with the venue before you travel, and keep your dog leashed anywhere that is not a signed off-leash area. Read the full disclaimer.
