3 Best Restaurants in Botswana

Located just a short walk from the airport, this reliable, friendly café offers a variety of wraps, salads, sandwiches, and a handful of daily specials all washed down with great coffee, milkshakes, smoothies, or a glass of locally brewed craft beer. If you still have space, there's also a great selection of house-made cakes and pastries.

If you've time for a cup of coffee and a quick snack between flights or before you set out on safari, leave the airport and turn right. You'll find this coffee shop behind the offices of Okavango Wilderness Safaris. Hilary has run this coffee shop for years, and everything you eat here is house-baked, including the best breakfast options in Maun. Grab a sandwich, a salad, or one of the daily specials and be sure to try her house-made whole-wheat bread.

The café at the Gothic-looking Motsana Center serves tasty sandwiches, American pancakes, lip-smacking milkshakes, and a handful of simple main courses. Wander around the curio shops while you wait for your food or make use of the free Wi-Fi. In winter, a projector and screen transform the stage into a cinema on Thursday night, when dinner is also served. There's also a small play area for children.
