Café
Jamestown Coffee Company (Osu)
A Ghanaian coffee company's Osu café serving flat whites made with locally sourced beans, all-day breakfasts and early dinners in a high-ceilinged, art-filled space.
An Osu café and co-working hub with a garden and terrace, serving coffee, smoothies and fresh salads daily from early morning to late evening.
Good to know
Kukun is part café and part creative hub, set on Koi Street in Osu. The ground floor and terrace are given over to a bright, airy café, while the floor above holds co-working desks, private offices and meeting rooms that can be rented by the day, week or month. The result is a place with a steady flow of entrepreneurs, freelancers, designers and start-up teams, and it has become one of the best-known community spaces in the city.
The café menu is built around coffee, smoothies and fresh, healthy food. Fresh salads are served throughout the day, along with breakfast dishes, and the drinks list includes tea, hot chocolate, juices, mocktails and milkshakes as well as espresso-based coffees. It is a good place for a light lunch, an afternoon pick-me-up or a long breakfast while you plan the rest of the day. The garden and art installations make it a pleasant setting even if you are not working.
Kukun suits remote workers and digital nomads looking for reliable desk space, solo travellers who want a sociable base, and friends meeting for coffee in a calm part of Osu. It also hosts events, which add to its role as a meeting point for Accra's creative scene; check its events page to see what is on during your stay. Families will find it relaxed, though it is geared more to adults working or socialising.
Kukun is open every day from 07:00 to 22:00, which makes it useful both for early coffee and for an evening drink. If you need a desk, book a day pass in advance on busy weekdays. Prices are moderate. Bring headphones if you plan to work in the café area.
If you are travelling for work, Kukun can double as an office for a few days: the private offices and meeting rooms are useful for calls and small team sessions, while the café downstairs means coffee and lunch are always close at hand.
Koi Street is in a quieter, residential pocket of Osu, close to Ako Adjei Park and a short ride from Oxford Street and the main restaurant strip. Taxis and ride-hailing cars are the easiest way to get there, and Jamestown Coffee Company, Buka and Pomona are all nearby for lunch or dinner.
