Heaven Restaurant
Saturday & Sunday 10:00am - 2:00pm
KN 6 Ave
During brunch at Heaven restaurant, you can sit back and enjoy the views whilst your kids take part in some of the different kids activities on offer every week. In the past, these have included painting classes, party games and magic shows.
“I recently visited Heaven restaurant in Kigali and tried the brunch buffet. Hands down the best brunch in Kigali, with delicious french toast and maple syrup, fruit salad, breakfast wraps, and countless other selections. The bagels are also the best I’ve had in Kigali (where bagels are very hard to come by.) The service is excellent, the outdoor seating area has a wonderful ambience, and the view of Kigali through the tree-tops is magical. I highly recommend Heaven’s brunch.”
