Who we are

A true taste of Ghanaian hospitality.

abrantie Twi · noun

A gentleman. Someone who carries himself well and treats people right.

That is the spirit behind Waakye Abrantie: Ghana's most-loved breakfast-to-dinner dish, prepared with pride and served with respect.

We took the waakye you grew up queuing for and gave it three homes, in Ayeduase, Patasi and TUC. A clean, air-conditioned dining room, generous leaf-lined trays, and a team that knows your order by the second visit.

What goes into every plate

Waakye is more than rice and beans.

It's a whole plate of textures, and we take every part seriously.

the base

Waakye

Rice and black-eyed beans cooked with dried sorghum leaves, which give it that deep, earthy red-brown colour.

the soul

House shito

the stew

Stew & wele

A slow-cooked tomato stew with tender beef and soft wele, spooned generously over the top.

the extras

Talia, gari & egg

Spaghetti, golden gari, a boiled egg, fresh salad, fried fish, sausage and plantain. You choose.
