Cafes

The hidden cafes in Stone Town are perfect for people-watching spots or a friendly chat with locals, made complete with a steaming cup of Tanzanian Arabica. Coffee has been a customary drink in Zanzibar ever since the arrival of Arab traders. Many locals will receive guests on their doorstep and share a pot of coffee together. Since Zanzibar is also known as the spice island, the fragrant cup is frequently spiced with cinnamon and cardamom, and served with plenty of milk and sugar. If you prefer your coffee unspiced and unsweetened, you'll find that the flavour of Tanzanian Arabica is bright and vibrant, with refreshing winy acidity.
