Lagos has many stylish cafés most of which sell food. The range of coffee is broad from the tall milky Galão to the small black bica. Most cafés are licensed so you can enjoy a tipple with your coffee or visit a café as an alternative to a bar. The food ranges from sweet and savory cakes to light meals.
Here are a list of some of the many cafés in Lagos. If you own a café or visit one you would like to tell us about, send us a message to listings@lagos.me.uk
