Hillside · Harare · Zimbabwe
Traditional African cooking served in an open garden, among carved wood, woven fibre and open flame.
Our table
Cultures Resort sits on the corner of Chiremba and Southey Road in Hillside, Harare. It was built around a simple idea: that African food is best shared slowly, outdoors, with people you like.
The kitchen cooks traditional dishes. The grounds hold African art, handcrafted objects and shade trees. Families come for lunch and stay through the afternoon.

The kitchen
Slow-cooked relishes, grains, greens and meat from the open fire — served family style on wood and clay.
Where tradition meets fire.
The experience
Tables set beneath mature trees, lanterns in the branches, open air and shade. Seating is spread across the grounds so groups can gather without crowding.
Much of the kitchen happens outdoors, over flame and coals, where guests can see and smell what is being prepared.
Carved wood, woven fibre, clay and hand-dyed cloth are part of the building itself rather than decoration hung on a wall.
Long tables, space for children, and an unhurried pace. People come to stay a while, not only to eat.
What guests say
This place offers a variety of African dishes. We went for the goat leg, village chicken and fish and it was delicious. The staff is friendly and it's in a good location. Would definitely visit again.

The environment is so peaceful and their African cuisine menu is so wide and the portions are more than generous. I would revisit over and over again.

Their goat dishes are incredible! I can still taste it a day later and wanting to go back. It has a good vibe that delivers a rich African feel. Friendly staff, fair portions and picturesque. Hidden gem.
