Wine, cocktails and bar stools facing the street.

The Winery puts its bar stools facing the street, right across from the Senegambia Craft Market. The same Spanish owner has run it for years, keeping the wine list going while other spots on the Strip changed hands.

It holds a steady 4.1 rating across 175 reviews, solid middle of the pack among Kololi's restaurants and bars. Sunday nights bring a regular crowd for a set that runs from 10pm to midnight.

My absolutely favorite place to sit and discuss with friends while zipping a beer! Good view over the entrance to the strip and the daily happenings. Good food and service.

Pretty good burger in Gambia! If you are craving the juicy and tasty heart burner, wait no longer. The place is cool, and is clearly a point for foreigners (no gambian there besides the workers and the occasional street seller who stops you to offer a wallet or a belt).

Great little spanish owned bar slap bang on the strip, Not had food there yet but what comes out of the kitchen looks and smells fantastic so will be eating here for sure. Happy hour on beers and spirits. Friendly staff and helpful locals and ex pats if you need any local knowledge.

The Winery is the best restaurant in Gambia 🇬🇲 for Spanish and international food. There, you can enjoy the taste of the Iberian Peninsula and the Mediterranean area. It has many promotions and an excellent bar. Its owner, Adrian, is one of the best people you can find in Gambia. It is usual to meet him spending time with their customers.
