Top choice in Bulawayo


Housed in a colonial building with sprawling lawns and a big patio, this casual fine-dining restaurant is one of Bulawayo's best. Its menu changes seasonally, and well-trained chefs cook up the likes of regional Nyanga trout, game venison pie or Zimbabwe dry-aged beef. Its thin-crust pizzas are very popular too, and its cocktail bar makes for a lively drinking spot.
