My husband and I visited for a bite to eat. The atmosphere was bright and beautiful with high ceilings, good music and attentive service.
The food was good. Me being a vegan, it would be great to have the choice of oat or almond milk for my coffee.
I was able to buy sourdough bread at the bakery and browse through the accessories, books and furniture. Overall, it was a fine experience
Cafe has a menu fused with both traditional and innovative fare. Everything from noodles to roasted fish. Multiple different daily specials are offered. Juices and drinks (non-caffeinated and caffeinated) are excellent. Nice relaxing atmosphere with inside/outside dinning that is somewhat melded into the associated store. Recommend for a great lunch spot.
Lulu comprises of a deli, home interior store & restaurant with an outdoor seating area. The restaurant focuses on fusion international cuisine with a focus on sustainable local products and dishes with a twist.
Occasional events for Soul Train/disco style music.
We first came to Lulu 7 years ago when they had just opened and Clement was just beginning with few pieces of furniture and an assortment of housewares. It’s incredible to see the community space that he and his family have created, a great layout for work or play with unique brands in the store and delicious food in the restaurant. We make sure to visit and support every time my family and I are in Dakar.
I’m disappointed today with this restaurant . It’s both of my sons birthdays and the place I chose for them was Lulu cafe just because I thought their burger was nice once in the past . We ordered 3 burgers , the meat came up so burnt , too much sauce and a spicy one , the bread was old and the salad had sand !! None of us could eat it . I then approached Aziz to explain , he wanted to change the salad after confirming it’s indeed a sandy black pepper they used but it was too late for us . He knew it was a birthday event but did nothing to make our experience better ! The bill came up to the same exact amount we ordered even though it was filled with sand and meat was burnt , I only ate a small part of my food ! Anyway never again ! You’ve lost a customer .
Very cool spot with great food and good vibes. You can eat inside or on the terrace. Both lovely options. The shopping is also quite nice with some luxury appointments and clothing. Also visit the shop out front for east sandwiches and other foods
Such an awesome hip place in the very cool city that Dakar is. The food is good and is organic. The portions are decent. The price are a little high for Dakar, but in reality they are in line with other cafés of its class. If you are in Dakar for the first time, this café should be at the top of your priority list.
You might also enjoy the interior design studio next door.
Lulu cafe is a little hidden gem on the Corniche. With a spacious but still welcoming atmosphere, you'll think for one second you were in SoHo NY or in Shoreditch in London. Located inside a arty furniture shopping space, the fact that it's a bit hard to find add to the experience.
The food is amazing, made out of fresh groceries purchased the same day. Don't expect to eat the same thing there, the day's menu is created after the chef went shopping his products. Pricing wise it's reasonable, I ended up with a 12,000 xof bill for a huge salad a juice and a desert.
My only negative point is the service being a little bit slow, to get your order. I think the place could work with one or 2 more servers.
All that said, you still have to try LULU cafe when you're in town!!!
New Lulu cafe just opened up within the home good store. Excellent food, great decor, and great little but high quality gift store. Has a nice area for kids, and a spacious outdoor seating area. Excellent spot for brunch and lunch.
