Really glad to have finally found this little gem where East Africa meets West Africa. The Ugandan street snack 'rolex' is to die for and my curiosity for everything else of the menu is piqued. Would love to come back even for the delightful service as numerous others have mentioned already!

We’ve been here several times and really enjoy the different main courses as well as the stews. The sides are also fantastic! Service is friendly and attentive. Highly recommended

Too much waiting. 10 minutes until someone takes our order, then almost 3 hours waiting for our plates. 2 waitresses. 1 small room with about 10 or 12 tables. 90 minutes before they come to inform us, we would be served in around 10 minutes. 20 minutes later, we have to wait another 20 minutes. 0 drink offered for the wait. 0 appetizer offered. Nothing, not even some tap water. Finally, our orders arrived... some grilled goat meat, fufu, grilled chicken, and white rice. Nothing fresh from the day except maybe the rice. The one and only nice thing: 50% discount (from TheFork) on the 70 euros bill.
The African GranaryThank you for visiting the African Granary. We are happy that you took the time to give us a review. Indeed some nights can turn out to be unexpectedly busy and then delays result. Its not realistic though that anyone ever waited 3 hours for their food at thr Granary, even on a busy night. So despite your disatisfaction with some aspects of our service, your review is misleading

I recently had a birthday, and my family and I are new to The Hague, so we decided to try this restaurant! The owners were incredibly kind, adding birthday decorations and singing 'Happy Birthday' in both English and Dutch! So many interesting and unique dishes. The banana cake was delicious! Highly recommended! We will return for sure!

We made a reservation and were at first told the promo would apply to everything on the menu, but when the bill arrived, it was clarified that drinks were not part of the promotion. We were ok with that. The menu wasn’t very extensive and we ordered items from each part of the menu to try since we were first time dinners there. The food took with a while to be ready and they explained to us they had a big catering event to fulfil. We were served our drinks first, and when the food arrived, together with the sides (a bit of everything, the fufu, the plantains, cassava and sweat potatoes) it was all very good. We especially liked the stew, and the baked fish. The fish was fresh and skin was crisped nicely. We were served by Kini who was very helpful and attentive, and we enjoyed our meal there a lot. We had asked for the leftover sides (everything else we finished, yum) to be bagged to go but they forgot, and so did we, after we paid the bill. Hope to be back to try the other items :)

Very good and friendly service and tasty food. The ambiance is also nice. Very clean restaurant. Unfortunately, the collected yumms were not taken into account. Other than that, everything was excellent.

The food was amazing there was something for everyone, and everything tasted so authentic. The atmosphere really stood out too; it felt high-end but still cozy and welcoming. The staff were super friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better.

The place is nice but it took two hours for the food to arrive (and the taste is very mediocre, nothing to write home about) and we when told them we booked through the fork, they said it only applies to main dishes although it doesn’t say that anywhere.

A fantastic new (ish) Africa restaurant in center of town. Everything was perfect! Treat yourself you won’t regret it!!!
5.0
Nice stuff, but the food was not something we will chose again. I do no recommend it, but maybe that was just out experience and the cook had a bad day.
The African GranaryThank you for your visit and review. We value your feedback and hope to use it to improve our service and cuisinines for every palate. It's a pity that you did not enjoy our tasty pilau and jollof rice with chicken. Its also unfortunate that it was not known to the team that you do not like tomatoes, which is a key component of both jollof rice and the kachumbari salad that is served with pilau. We do hope to serve you again in future. Please send us any more specific feedback through our email to theafricagranarynl@gmail.com

It was amazing - we had such a lovely time and the food was delicious! I recommend to take a starter, main dish and finish it with some tasty authentic desserts. Very worth it and a must-visit, friendly staff and great experience!

Brand new restaurant in The Hague that serves a mix of West and East African dishes. The Hague was missing West African food so I am happy that they opened. The food was tasty and the staff were super friendly. Definitely recommend visiting!
The African GranaryThbaks for patronising the African Granary, look forward to hosting you again.
