Accra: Africa’s capital of cool on the Gulf of Guinea.

Tropical mango, papaya, passion berries and hot peppers. Mouth-watering, green and spicy Afro-Jazz energy. Vintage vinyl. The sensual heat of the tropics. Coffee and cocoa. And the vibrant colours of West African waxed kente cloth.

"Reading the novels of VS Naipaul, and later discovering the playful writing of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, I was particularly attracted to West Africa; the colour, the style, the joie de vivre, the warmth. So with this journey to Accra, I wanted to evoke a bygone glamour, the tropical sensuality, and an enveloping heat. I wanted to feel the easy-going charm of Accra, a happy-go-lucky lightness of being..." -Founder Nick Steward
