Café Kwae

Accra


Despite Accra’s large population, you won’t find many real cafes here. That’s changing with the recent opening of this cafe inside the extravagant facade of One Airport Sq. Treat yourself with homemade pies, light lunches, a wide variety of teas, freshly ground coffee or cold-pressed juice as you make use of the free wi-fi.
