Hurumzini Movie Café

Zanzibar Town


Come for coffee, a meal or a movie – or all three. With comfortable sofas, funky decor and an imaginative menu (snacks from Tsh3000; meals Tsh9000 to Tsh15,000), this is a great little place. Swing by during the day to see what's showing in the evening; between 10am and 5pm customers can choose the film, or just enjoy the food and friendly ambience.

Watching a movie is free if you buy food or drink.
