Amazing price rather than cafe! staples food price at least 3 times that of other specilty cafe😨 a burger ETB1600 equals to $10.50! Its ethiopian price or nordic price?😱 too much foreigners just boz of ins hype, just a basic cold brew but the ice cubes somehow letdown
We love the coffee. It’s nice for home use as well. The cookies are nice too. Their service tho meh … it’s not constant. The place looked beautiful, my pictures doesn’t do it justice. I hope they will fix their service and give priority for customers.

0/10 service you basically have to BEG for a waiters attention, we sat 20 minutes before the waiter finally came to us and then another 40 to get the food. I asked for a utensil (silly me) and that was never brought either. Almost everyone went to the cashier themselves to pay because they would have to sit another 30’. Food was great but only go there if you have God’s patience or able to call out on their terrible service.

An amazing coffee shop, very cool interiors and style. Clearly this was designed which is such a welcoming thing for a cafe. It is great for a casual meeting - inside or outside in the sun. There is plenty of parking outside as well. While i most came here for coffee, the salads are also very tasty.

What is Galani Coffee? Galani Coffee is a café and specialty-coffee space located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. It was established in 2016 with the goal of promoting Ethiopian coffee in a modern “third wave” coffee shop context. It’s more than just a café: they roast their own coffee, they hold trainings, tastings, and present coffee as a craft. Name & Identity The name “Galani” comes from the Gelan River which runs down the Bale Mountains and through many coffee-growing regions in South Ethiopia. This was chosen to evoke origin, journey and coffee heritage. The branding reflects local transport of beans (for example donkeys carrying coffee) and connects to the idea of origin, traceability and authentic Ethiopian coffee culture. Location & Ambience Address: Jacros – Salite Mehret Rd, Behind the Jackross Villas Compound, Addis Ababa. The space is described as “industrial chic” and quite spacious for Addis Ababa café standards. Upstairs there is a cultural/art space and boutique item
