A cup and a needle
Our logo is a coffee cup and a needle with thread. That is because Boards Café in Gikondo, Kigali is two things at once: a café where you can enjoy coffee and good food, and a couture studio where clothes are made for you. We also keep a calm lounge for working and a shelf of board games for when the work is done. Everyone is welcome.
Four reasons to visit
Coffee and food. Rwanda grows some of the best coffee in the world, and we make it fresh for you, one cup at a time. See the full menu.
Couture. Clothes designed and sewn to fit your body and your style, plus repairs and changes to clothes you already love. Browse the couture collection and book a fitting.
A place to work. A calm, comfortable work-friendly lounge with coffee close by.
Board games. Chess, draughts, cards, strategy and party games. Read about our game nights.
Made in Kigali, with Kigali makers
We love working with makers from Kigali. Pantabags brings its denim bags and other pieces to our café, so you can see them in person.
