Cafe AMKA operates out of Lonrho House on Standard Street in the CBD and has earned attention for its use of advanced processing techniques including carbonic maceration and anaerobic fermentation in its Kenyan-sourced offerings. The in-house roaster gives the team full control over flavor development, and baristas craft each cup with visible precision at the counter. The intimate scale and community-first atmosphere connect directly to Kenyan farmers and artisans who supply the menu. AMKA represents a new generation of Nairobi specialty cafes that treat the CBD as a viable home for third-wave coffee.
