Jaw's Corner

Thai is a must! Amazing commemorative paint within amazing stone town

Fascinating place in the very heart of Stone Town. It was named after the mural showing a shark from the “Jaws” movie. Local men meet here to watch football and discuss current matters. The flag in the middle of the square represents the opposition party ACT - Wazalendo.

One can see the whole of Stone Town here. Try the local coffee while sitting on a bench at this small square and listen to news updates and arguments flying around, watch the people walking by, as if aimlessly and feel part of The 3D Matrix! The most sought-after vantage point is next to the 400V electricity box.

The owners obviously had a sense of humour. Lovely cool.open air oerfect for yhe hot nights. Lovely views. The staff were wonderful and very honest when dealing with the confusion of rates of exchange from TSH to USD. Food was excellent. Would def recommend it.

This corner is full of happy people. Good vibes, we were even taught a dance by the locals. A lovely corner to run into as you explore Stone Town.

A place to go for meeting locals. Fir watching Manchester City win, or a cup of coffee, contemplating or watching The World Pass By.

Though perhaps historically significant, not a must see for tourists. More for locals a place to get together and play domino’s or watch football.

This is not a restaurant. It’s just a corner where everyone drinks coffee. You can try this Zanzibar coffee. It definitely tastes better than the coffee I am used to. Be careful of people trying to sell you stuff or hassle you if you don’t have a tour guide
