Indaba Lodge Hotel Gaborone is well known for its huge breakfast offering. Perfect for business meetings or just a hearty breakfast away from home. Our visit couldn't have come at a more perfect time as they launched a new menu just last month.

I would best describe the previous menu as a snack/poolside style menu, very different to the current well thought out versatile menu. The huge grey Victorian style architectural structure with Indaba Lodge in red across the front is a statement. As the doors slide open, you are met with beautiful Afrocentric designs and prints.

The open plan is very welcoming and allows you to get a glimpse into the hotel and restaurant from the reception, including the frozen bar, which is the only one in Gaborone and this spectacular feature makes this bar completely original, it keeps your bev cold. We had the pleasure of meeting Chef Joyce. She is an absolute delight and takes such pride in her work, the tastes and visual presentation she has added to the menu add to one’s dining experience. This new menu is diverse, unlike before there are hearty meals available. She has added Pastas, Bream, Goat Stew, BBQ wings along with a bunch if new flavours. In the middle of the restaurant is a long, marble high table that seats 14.
