"Freshly baked doughnuts and brunch at Marula Mercantile A leafy garden café set in the suburb of Karen, Marula Mercantile is great for a boozy, long brunch over the weekend. Relatively newly-opened, it’s a cool and elegant place with wooden decking, brassy chairs and a well stocked bar. Must-tries on the menu include the sweet potato fritters with a tamarind dip, feta with dill and toasted sesame seeds, grilled halloumi salad and crispy french fries. They also make home-made doughnuts here, which you won’t want to miss."

I can't say enough about the wonderful service, food and atmosphere of Marula. We walked here from our AirBnB and were immediately greeted by a warm hostess and later the chef. I recommend sharing a few plates so that you can get a full sense of the menu. Nothing disappoints. For anyone that was here before, it's important to note that it is under new ownership with a new menu (they kept the sesame crusted cheese...and made it better...TRY IT!). If you went before and weren't sure on it, try it now!

Such a nice spot! Nice hand-craft shop(s), good western and african food at the restaurant, reasonable prices and nice staff! Nothing I would have expected in the outer part of Nairobi but definitely worth a visit.

Fantastic food, drinks and ambiance. Groups or single, you'll have a great time. The staff are helpful and friendly as well. Good music and feel of the place. It's definitely worth repeat visits.
