Why we recommend it
Café Mondo is a well-established European-style café in North Labone. It sits next to the Metro TV building, in a residential district just north of Osu, and combines a café counter with a broader bistro menu, which makes it a dependable stop for both a morning coffee and a relaxed lunch.
The core of the menu is coffee, pastries and sandwiches. At lunchtime, panini and baguettes come with fillings such as smoked salmon and bresaola, and the Labone branch also serves pizzas, pasta, salads, wraps and crêpes, so it works well for groups who want different things. It is a good choice for anyone who wants a light, familiar meal after a few days of heavier local food, and the pastries pair well with an afternoon coffee.
The setting combines an outdoor seating area with an air-conditioned bar inside. On hot afternoons the cool interior is welcome, while mornings and evenings are pleasant outside. Café Mondo suits couples, families with children, solo travellers with a book or a laptop and friends meeting for a long lunch. Its menu of sandwiches, pizzas and crêpes is easy for children.
According to a local listings guide, Café Mondo opens from 08:00 to 22:00 Monday to Saturday and from 12:00 to 22:00 on Sunday; call ahead to confirm before travelling across town. Prices are moderate by international standards. Carry cedis or a card for payment.
The broad menu means Café Mondo works at almost any time of day: coffee and a pastry in the morning, a baguette or panini at lunch, and pizza or pasta in the evening. If you are spending a day exploring Labone and Cantonments, it makes a convenient base for breaks between visits. The outdoor tables are most comfortable early in the morning and after sunset, when the heat eases.
North Labone is a short taxi or ride-hailing ride from Osu, Cantonments and the Airport Residential Area. Bistro 22 and other Labone restaurants and bars are close by, so it is easy to spend an afternoon here and stay on in the neighbourhood for dinner or drinks in the evening.
