The Waterfront

Livingstone


A favourite watering hole for expats and tourists alike, this deck bar (complete with swimming pool) has a spectacular location overlooking the Zambezi River. There's beer on tap, popular wood-fired pizzas (including a crocodile variety), and happy hour on Wednesday and Friday from 5.30pm. It's at the Victoria Falls Waterfront Lodge, 4km from Livingstone.
