Toby & Abby’s Café brings Botswana’s Indigenous Foods to the front

Located opposite the Security Services Headquarters in Bontleng, near the CID traffic lights, the café is owned by agripreneur Lere Tapologo. It offers full meals, snacks, and beverages made entirely from locally sourced fruits and crops. These include moretlwa, moretologa, mmilo, mowana (baobab), morula, and indigenous melons such as lerotse.

Tapologo, who also runs Tripple A Farm, said the café was established to celebrate Setswana cuisine while addressing persistent market-access challenges faced by small producers and agro-processors.
