This a very lovely cafe with a very chilled nature themed vibe. Went for a birthday brunch with my sister. The customer service is awesome. My allergies kicked in because of the A.C and I started coughing. The staff were so concerned and they kept coming to ask if there was anything they could do to help me feel better. It eventually got better 😂. We enjoyed our Egg benedict and French Toast. The orange juice was also very fresh.I also loved the clam instrumental music in the background. Has a lot of nice angles for photo lovers. Definitely recommend ☺️

This is one of the cafes in Abuja that’s a hidden gem. Food is as good as Mai Shayi or Eric Kayser but quite noticeably more cost effective. Their menu stands out for its simplicity and quality as well as the adept meld of Nigerian northern cuisine with western cafe fare. The menu switches between brunch and lunch so gives enough variety to keep the palate happy. My personal favorites are in the breakfast menu - the poached eggs hollandaise, Kodak with kunun tsamiya (pictured), folio and granola. The aya lair drink is great if you like tigernut. Coffee is excellent and they have milk alternatives. The setting is within the Sarius Palmetum in Maitama and so exceptionally green and calming. And there is sufficient parking with a short walk in. The only downside is how small they are inside - only about 7 table tops. Go before or after lunch service as that’s their busiest time and the service will be quicker and quite good.

The person taking my order was polite. The manager was not warm or nice, very odd. The ambience is great, but the food was off taste wise. The pancakes and chicken as well as the pizza and the mocktail. For the prices especially, could’ve been a lot better. I’m sure a lot has gone into this, please put more effort with the taste too.

Had a lovely brunch at this cozy little gem of a restaurant! I ordered the buttermilk pancakes with eggs—absolutely delicious, perfectly fluffy and flavorful. My friend got the chicken and waffles, which were crispy, juicy, and just the right amount of sweet and savory. Another friend had the house club sandwich, which unfortunately didn’t quite hit the mark. However, what really stood out was the incredible customer service. The owner personally came over, sincerely apologized and not only removed the item from our bill but also took my friend’s info to ensure her next meal is on the house. That kind of hospitality is rare and truly appreciated. We’ll definitely be back—good food, warm atmosphere and amazing service!

I absolutely loved the ambience at Lantees! The indoor sitting feels cozy and warm, while the outdoor sitting feels like you’re in a garden. My friend and I ate indoors then moved outdoors to work as it got a bit noisy/crowded. The staff were very attentive and friendly. My pizza was amazing! I had the African wagyu pizza while my friend had a sandwich; there was too much bread with too little filling. For our drinks; I had the “African Summer Rose” I found the rose a bit over powering but after I requested for more ice and it melted, it became more bearable. My friend had the “Lantees Refined” which she really enjoyed, for someone who always orders water with her food.

I loved my time at this cafe. Ibrahim Babangida Blvd is one of the dreamiest parks in Abuja, and the cafe’s rose and green interiors matches the vibes perfectly. It’s not a very big space, but it wasn’t full when I went so that wasn’t an issue. It smells great! The Ragu linguini was excellent, but my friend’s pancakes were not great, nor were her eggs. The drinks and espresso were good. I’ll definitely return.
