2. Cafesserie - City Mall, Malindi Road, Nyali
What they say: "For years, ever since the espresso machine was invented, Italy has been considered the modern bastion of fine coffee. Italian coffee is known around the world as the greatest drink; people dream of traveling to Italy, just for the taste of the excellent coffee beverages. We established Cafesserie, with the aim of bringing real Italian espresso to Africa. In Italy, espresso bars are the customary meeting place for coffee lovers, local business people and nearby residents. At Cafesserie, just as in Italy, the quality and the fine taste of the coffee, as well the way it is prepared and served is of the upmost importance and close to our hearts in representing our vision at its best."
