Jollof Cafe

Popped in for dinner at Jollof. Very friendly and helpful owner. She assisted in the ordering as we didn’t understand the cuisine or jargon.
Had a Goat Soup with Juju (mash potato). Broth was very tasty. A bit of heat to it as well but the meat was a mixture of stomach and goat. Hmm stomach?
Next up we had Jollof rice with grill chicken. A tender pair of chicken drumsticks came with a spicy tomato ish sauce served with a dark coloured rice favoured with spices.
And our final dish was fried plantain served with beef in a chilli sauce /​curry ish sauce. Interesting dish. Plantain sweet and curry savoury and had a kick too.
Happy to revisit when I’m feeling for jungle food again. Thats the tag line for this place by the way.

Home cooked African food in a very welcoming Café.
All the staff that work here are very friendly and helpful and definitely went the extra mile to make us feel at ease.
The food was a bit mixed with some dishes working better than others. I enjoyed my safari beef with rice but was expecting something with a bit more wow based on other reviews I’d read. One of the dishes had something very similar to Smash in it and that wasn’t very popular with the friends I was there with.
