The Laughing Buddha Experience/Review

A while back, my friend (the only one on literally all my experience posts lol), my sister and I went to a place called The Laughing Buddha which is a cafe that has recently opened in Nairobi. My sister was actually the one who found this place thanks to their Instagram page and it looked so pretty we just had to go!

The Laughing Buddha is honestly the most Instagram-able place ever and they know it! They have this super cute couch/picture area which is where we headed first because look how pretty!!

The aesthetic was on point and everything was just so pretty and pink. Even their kitchen items/utensils etc were mostly pink. And I have to say that their staff was incredible. They were so friendly, helpful and did their job so well. And the owner even went to all the tables personally and asked if everything was okay. We were super impressed and I have to say- that’s how you successfully run a business. Keeping the customers happy and providing great service is what keeps customers coming back (and in my case writing a review post which I hope will help them get some more customers!).

Here is a video of the place and the decorations:

Next, we finally sat down to order some drinks and food and took a few pics while we waited for them:

I got the vegan coffee (I got it with plant based milk instead of regular) which was great:

But the real highlight was MistryLand’s drink which was literally the coolest looking drink ever:

We also had a dessert which was unfortunately not vegan but was vegetarian. Going to keep it real with you guys- I did have a couple of bites because I really wanted to try it. I love how they decorated everything- it looked so cute especially the paw prints.

Now we had nothing left to do except enjoy the items we ordered and take a million pictures:

And of course, here are some behind the scenes pictures where I did not get the memo to look cute but MistryLand of course sat there looking effortlessly flawless:

Overall, we had a fantastic time at The Laughing Buddha and if you’re in Nairobi I would definitely recommend checking them out. They have lots of great drink, food and dessert options that I am sure you’ll enjoy especially if you are vegan or vegetarian. And of course, the staff is so great too so you will love spending time there. It honestly has the best vibe, a super cute look and great food/drinks/service. We liked it so much we even went back in two days lol! Would 11/10 recommend.

  1. Not looking cute? 🙄 Puh lease, Pooja. You always looking fly. I like this new series of checking out cool places with your friend nearby. It’s nice to see Kenya in the eyes of locals!

    1. That may be the first time I’ve ever been called fly so thank you 😅🥰 I’m glad you’re enjoying these types of posts- it’s fun to share my experiences with you guys!

  2. Yeah Pooj you arealways looking super fly. It was the best day ever! 🥰

    1. Not as fly as you! It was honestly such a great week ☺

  3. Lovely looking place!

    1. It was wonderful!

  4. Looks very minimalist for a place that has a pink theme. Usually pink can be too loud, but it looks very well-designed. Everything about it looks impeccable tbh

    1. Yeah pink doesn’t always work because it’s easy to overdo but I think they really pulled it off. It was lovely.

  5. How to make a picture look good?
    Add Pooja G!

    1. Aww haha thank you! ☺

  6. Thank you, Pooja and MistryLand, for taking us to The Laughing Buddha in Nairobi. It is fun to discover new places and as I have never been to Nairobi it is especially interesting for me to see the world through your eyes for a bit.
    Also, I liked your video and the behind the scenes takes and most of all I liked to see how you were enjoying your time together.

    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I know a lot of people haven’t had the opportunity to see Nairobi and that’s why I like sharing our little adventures. Thanks for your kind words.

  7. Haven’t been there but you created a vivid picture in my mind! It looks so amazing. I’m so grateful for your friend. I can tell she means a lot to you.

    1. Thanks- I’m so glad you feel that way! She definitely means a lot and her company is always a gift.

  8. how fun is that but why aren’t you gurlies laughing?! 💖
    I was laughing at the video tho. no like pink?! what’s wrong with them 😂

    1. We were laughing on the inside 🤣 Haha right?? Who doesn’t love pink 💗

      1. oh there you go!!! 😂😂😂
        I know right.. i put my son in pink and gave him dolls right away.. he threw them out for balls and trucks 🤷‍♀️🤪

        1. Lol well at least you tried 😂😜

          1. There is that… 😂

  9. Glad to see that you enjoy nice food. I never travel, but I like my food. God bless

    1. Thank you. Yes, the food was fantastic.

  10. A wonderful experience😇

    1. It truly was 😄

  11. Looks like you’ve had a great day
    Hope you enjoyed. I loved your pants. Super well fitting on you and .still in love with your nails.❤❤

  12. Seems like a great fun time actually happy for you. You always dress so amazingly, I really like that.
    The Pink theme is great. I wonder why the colour pink though. The place looks spacious and a great place to hang out with friends and family.
    I really like mistryland’s drink, it looks tasty. Overall I’m satisfied and ebullient to read it. Keep sharing.

    1. Thanks so much, I think I waste too much money on clothes but now I have an excuse lol!

      It’s a wonderful place and yeah her drink looked the most fun haha.

      1. Hey, I don’t know if it happens with you. But sometimes I feel like I have too many clothes but when it comes to any specific occasion I feel I have no good clothes. 😅
        We need to go to creative direction for content. This is your creative direction.
        Also, I don’t want to say it, but why ladies have such good clothes and tons of variety to wear. Unfair 😭

        1. Lol I have the exact same issue which is why I keep buying new stuff 😂
          True, we do have a great variety but that means we waste more money 😢

          1. It is the opposite. You spend more money as there are more variety. 🙂

            1. Haha true.
