Fiesta Pub & Restaurant
3rd Floor, Chester House
Koinange Street
Nairobi
I had a loose Friday just a week ago and I was feeling rather parched. Since I did not feel like going to my favorite haunts, I decided to try a new joint where I will not be forced to have polite conversation with acquaintances, a place I can chill out with my thoughts.
I picked on Fiesta since it is within the CBD and so, close walking distance for me. The interior is spacious with a separate area for dining, shielded away from the more livelier part of the place, the bar. I will not talk about food since I was not there to have dinner.
I settled my self on a bar stool and desperately tried to catch the barman's eyes. Took several attempts but finally he acknowledged my presence and came over. Ordered my usual double Viceroy on rocks, which was dully served. As time went by I was to discover that the service leaves a lot to be desired and many many curses stuck in your head.
I settled in to asses, nice decor, very inviting couches all over the place, good lighting, good music....in general a very classy place.
They have a live band which plays some really cool jazz, though I had to sit through about 30 minutes of them tuning up. But the music was great. Lets see what else? Oh yeah, the pricing. A double of Viceroy was at 300 bob soooo, yeah. I also had two samosas which were ok, though they could use a bit more pepper. A samosa was going for 50 bob. The food at the next table also looked very inviting.
The washrooms,I had issue with. They have two washrooms, one is the kind you reach the door and decide you really did not neeeed to go. The other you wonder why they did not provide reading material. Maybe one is still work in progress but that needs to be sorted out.
Overall, I liked the place, mostly because it is cozy, and you can have a conversation without shouting your throat hoarse. And the jazz music. If you have been there, please share your experience.
Cheers.

nice to see hapa na pale back up again. Only been to fiesta once (maybe a year ago) and it seems not to have changed. anyway there's much variety on k-street
Fiesta is great especially if you want to have a conversation with someone,plus you don get to get every Tom Dick and Harry!
Fiesta is a place that gets 0 for service on my score card. I think you can actually go there for a 1 hour wedding committee meeting and not have to buy a thing. They wouldn't even notice!
I've been to Fiesta several times and I liked it for it's quiteness in the midst of the bustling city.
The mature crowd was a plus for me.
