Last week, I found myself wandering along Kangundo Rd in Nairobi, and I couldn't resist stopping by Blackbull Lounge, a delightful gem nestled at PVFQ+XPM. This spot is not just another place to grab a meal; it’s a lively hub in the hospitality industry, serving mouth-watering food and refreshing beverages while also accommodating a garage. I visited around 3 PM, which was the perfect time to grab a late lunch.
As soon as I entered, I was greeted by the warm ambiance and the inviting scent of grilled delicacies. The lively chatter of patrons enjoying their meals filled the air, and it was evident that Blackbull Lounge is a favorite amongst locals. One of the highlights of my visit was the attentive service provided by a young waiter named David, who came highly recommended in several reviews I had read prior to my visit. His friendly demeanor and knowledge of the menu made ordering an absolute breeze.
I decided to try the grilled chicken platter, which was priced at Ksh 800. The portion was generous, enough to satisfy even the heartiest of appetites. Each bite was succulent and perfectly seasoned, complemented by a side of fries and a fresh salad. It was no surprise to me that several reviewers had raved about the grilled chicken, noting its tenderness and flavor. As David explained while serving, the chicken is marinated for hours to achieve that distinct taste that keeps customers coming back for more.
Alongside this, I couldn’t resist ordering a mango smoothie for Ksh 300. As someone who loves smoothies, I was excited to see how it compared to others I’ve tried. Let me tell you, it was refreshing, creamy, and packed with tropical flavors, making it a perfect accompaniment to my meal. Many patrons had commented on the quality of the beverages, and now I can wholeheartedly agree that it’s well-deserved praise!
For those who enjoy the nightlife, Blackbull Lounge also transforms into a vibrant spot in the evenings with a variety of beverages and occasional live music. The prices are consistently reasonable, ensuring that even casual visits won't be burdensome on the wallet. After finishing my meal, David offered dessert, highlighting the popular chocolate cake priced at Ksh 250, which I decided to save for my next visit.
Reflecting on my experience, I genuinely enjoyed my time at Blackbull Lounge. The combination of delectable dishes, friendly service from David, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a must-visit spot in Nairobi. Whether you're looking for a hearty lunch or a cozy dinner with friends, Blackbull Lounge has something for everyone. I'll certainly return to relish that grilled chicken again and maybe dive into that tempting chocolate cake!
