Rose Garden Restaurant at Zara Garden Hotel

Culinary Excellence

Two Restaurants.
One Address.

From garden-level open kitchens to a rooftop bar above the city — every meal at Zara Garden is an occasion worth dressing for.

Ground Floor

Rose Garden
Restaurant

Step into our ground-floor restaurant and step away from Kampala for a while. The Rose Garden is built around living greenery, natural light, and three open studio kitchens that make the act of cooking as pleasurable to watch as the food is to eat.

Chef Michael Martin's menu weaves Asian and European traditions into something entirely its own — fresh, flavourful, and grounded in the finest seasonal produce available in Uganda and beyond.

Breakfast: 7:00 – 10:30 AM  ·  Lunch: 12:00 – 3:00 PM  ·  Dinner: 6:30 – 11:00 PM

View Rooftop Bar — seventh floor panoramic bar at Zara Garden Hotel Kampala

Seventh Floor

View
Rooftop Bar

There is a moment at sunset on the seventh floor when the city below turns gold and the hills beyond catch fire. This is the moment we built the View Rooftop Bar for. Pull up a chair. It happens every evening.

Our bar programme is curated for those who understand that a great drink is as considered as a great dish — local Ugandan spirits, rare whiskeys, small-production wines, and cocktails designed around East Africa's finest botanicals.

Lunch: 12:00 – 3:00 PM  ·  Bar & Small Plates: 4:00 PM – Midnight
