Oyster Bay

"Oyster Bay is a great spot for drinks, but you definitely need a lot of patience. It gets very busy, and the service can be quite slow. After we arrived and sat down, we waited almost 30 minutes without anyone coming over to take our order. We had to repeatedly look for a waiter or ask someone for help, and even then, we were told they would get our server, but no one returned for a while. That said, everything else was enjoyable. The vibe is really nice and the atmosphere is great. I absolutely loved the drinks. Despite the long wait, they were well made and worth it. The bartender did a great job, especially when we asked for customizations to our drinks. As for the food, it was just okay. Nothing bad, but nothing memorable either."

"Oyster Bay in Kilimani is the perfect blend of coastal charm and city energy. The space is beautifully designed with a modern seaside vibe, making it ideal for dining, drinks, or just unwinding with friends. Their seafood stands out, fresh, well-seasoned, and generously portioned; while the cocktails are some of the best around. The music and ambiance create a lively yet classy atmosphere, especially in the evenings. It can get quite vibrant on weekends, so it’s great if you enjoy an upbeat crowd. Overall, Oyster Bay delivers a stylish dining experience that feels like a beach escape right in the city."

"✨ Osta Bay vibes ✨ Met up with my long-time friend here and honestly, I was blown away the moment I walked in. The interior is gorgeous — lots of greenery (okay, plastic plants but they look sooo real 😅), airy, spacious, and the high ceiling just makes it feel so fresh. We sat down for good conversation with music at the perfect volume — chill during the day, then gradually getting a bit livelier in the evening without being overwhelming. 🎶 Food time 👇 I went for fish fillet with chips (would have loved it more if it was breadcrumb-coated instead of the dry flour layer that cracked like a mandazi 🥲) while my friend had steak and chips which was absolutely yum! 🥩🍟 We paired it all with a few shots of tequila 🍋🥂 — celebrating my beautiful 40th birthday gift (a stunning piece of art 😍). All in all, loved the space, loved the vibe, and loved the company. Definitely a spot I’d go back to! 💛"

"I’ve visited Oyster several times and I genuinely love the ambience. However, I was disappointed with my recent experience when I ordered beef nachos for takeaway. In the past, the portions have been pretty decent, but this time the quality was way below par. For KSh 1,750, the nachos barely had any beef as purported, which was quite disappointing when I opened my package at home. Consistency in service and portion quality is important, and unfortunately this experience fell short of what I’ve come to expect."

"Oyster Bay is one of the best spots in town for a great dining and social experience. Whether you’re looking for a romantic date night or a fun hangout with friends, this place has something for everyone. The menu is impressive, offering a variety of delicious dishes and expertly crafted drinks. The food is consistently well-prepared, and the cocktails are top-notch, making it a go-to destination for food and drink lovers. One of the standout features of Oyster Bay is its size and layout. The venue is massive, with different sections catering to different vibes—whether you prefer a lively atmosphere or a more relaxed setting. The spacious parking lot is a huge plus, eliminating the usual hassle of finding a spot. For sports enthusiasts, the large screens make it an excellent place to catch live matches and Formula 1 races. The crowd is a good mix of locals and expats, adding to the vibrant and diverse atmosphere. The service is generally good, and the ambiance makes it easy to unwind and enjoy. Overall, Oyster Bay is a fantastic choice for a night out, offering great food, drinks, and a lively yet comfortable environment."
