Café Mondo

Accra


The popular Café Mondo is one of the few spots in town to get croissants, pain au chocolat and other pastries that wouldn't look out of place in a French bakery. You can also design your own sandwich, making this a perfect stop for breakfast, lunch or a wi-fi break.

There's another branch in East Legon.
