Vietnamese café · Nairobi

Ô kia! is what you say in Vietnamese when something surprises you. We’re the pink arches on Riverside Drive and at Warwick Centre, Gigiri — bánh mì, iced cà phê and a lot of matcha.

N° 00 — The name

Oh,
look!

“Ô KIA! Vietnamese expression of surprise & wonder.”

That’s it — that’s the whole brief. A Vietnamese café in Nairobi built for the double-take: magenta arches you’ll want to stand in, green neon over the bar, bánh mì on leaf trays and iced cà phê that marbles when you stir it.

Two homes: One Three Six on Riverside Drive, open every day, and Warwick Centre in Gigiri, right by UN Avenue.

“I absolutely love the vibe of this place… It’s also an amazing place for a solo date or to work.”

“…the waitress recommended the Salty Caramel coffee and Salmon Sandwich and OMG!!”

“From the fresh rolls to the banh mi, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.”

“Staff was knowledgeable on veg/vegan friendly options… The vegan rice paper wrap was especially delicious.”
