The Wine Shop Loresho: Garden Dining, Sharing Plates and Nairobi Menu Prices

The Wine Shop in Loresho combines a restaurant, wine bar and retail shop at 291 Loresho Ridge, Nairobi. Its official menu distinguishes a garden alfresco setting from indoor tables by the cellar, with food ranging from breakfast and sharing plates to pizza, burgers, premium cuts and a dedicated vegan section.

That variety makes the venue worth investigating for several different kinds of outing. A coffee appointment, a shared lunch and a longer dinner need different orders and different budgets. The current published menu gives enough detail to plan the format before inviting the rest of the table.

The Loresho address and the setting

The operator publishes 291 Loresho Ridge, next to Tribal Gallery, and the contact number 0718 003302. Its displayed hours are Monday to Saturday 09:00–22:00 and Sunday 11:00–17:00. Keep the Sunday window in mind when deciding whether the visit is lunch, an afternoon catch-up or an evening plan.

The actual official photograph shows the garden approach, outdoor seating and umbrellas. It supports the venue’s published alfresco identity without claiming that a particular table is reserved. Ask for the seating format that suits your group when making the enquiry.

Starting with small plates

Menu references checked on 26 October 2026 list a quattro-formaggi samosa at KSh 350 per piece, marinated olives at KSh 550 and mushroom arancini at KSh 1,150. These give a useful range for a shorter visit or the beginning of a meal, with the per-piece samosa pricing kept distinct from a shared platter.

For a group, decide whether everyone is ordering a main or whether the table will build the visit around several shared dishes. That simple distinction makes the invitation clearer and helps avoid a budget based on one starter when the intended outing is a full dinner.

Dips, mezze and sharing quantities

The dips-and-mezze section gives KSh 1,050 for one person,KSh 1,600 for two and KSh 2,350 for four. The menu asks guests to discuss bread accompaniments with the server. These stated sizes make the section particularly useful when planning a defined shared order.

For example, a two-person dips plate and mushroom arancini produce a KSh 2,750 food subtotal from the quoted amounts. That is an illustration of two named dishes, leaving drinks and any additional order outside the calculation. It is a clearer starting point than describing the venue with an unspecified average spend.

Pizza, pasta and a more substantial lunch

The published menu lists Margherita pizza at KSh 1,600, basil-pesto chicken pizza at KSh 1,750 and roasted butternut ravioli at KSh 1,700. The categories provide different ways to build a full lunch, rather than treating the wine-bar identity as a reason to expect only snacks.

A useful group plan gives each guest room to choose the format they prefer. Somebody wanting one main can use the pizza or pasta section, while another diner may favour shared dishes. Discussing that approach before arrival makes the table’s expectations easier to coordinate.

Burgers and premium cuts

A red-snapper burger is listed at KSh 1,700 and a chicken-pesto burger at KSh 1,800. The separate Black Steer & Co section includes a Grade A 2/3 sirloin at KSh 3,450. Keeping these sections distinct helps explain the range of possible bills within one venue.

A host can therefore plan a straightforward burger lunch or a more substantial steak-led occasion without relying on a single price label for the whole restaurant. Use the actual dishes your group intends to order when setting a budget and asking about the final table arrangement.

The dedicated vegan menu

The operator publishes a separate vegan section, including a vegan Margherita at KSh 1,750 and a falafel burger at KSh 1,800. That gives a concrete starting point for a mixed-preference group. Select from the named section rather than assuming that any vegetable dish elsewhere has the same preparation.

Share dietary requirements during the reservation enquiry and discuss the intended dishes with the team. This makes the menu useful for planning while leaving preparation questions with the people serving the meal. A mixed table can then focus on enjoying the occasion rather than renegotiating the whole order after arrival.

Coffee, dessert and the shorter outing

The menu lists a latte at KSh 450 and hot salted-caramel brownie at KSh 850. Two lattes and one brownie give a KSh 1,750 reference subtotal for a short shared sweet break. It is a different format from the full lunch examples and should be planned as such.

This can suit friends catching up between other commitments or a relaxed first meeting with a clear starting time. Decide whether food is a small accompaniment or the main reason for the visit. The same address can support both, with a more specific invitation making the plan easier to understand.

Wine-shop and restaurant roles

The operator distinguishes drink-in wine from take-away retail pricing. Keep the intended format clear when discussing a bottle with the team. A wine purchased for home and a restaurant order belong to different parts of the business, even when the label is familiar.

For the outing itself, choose the company and meal format first, then discuss the drinks that suit it. Coffee, food and the garden setting also provide a clear reason to investigate the venue when wine is not the main focus of the visit.

Styling a Loresho garden occasion

For a daytime meal, coordinated separates or a relaxed dress can work with one noticeable accessory. A practical shoulder bag suits a visit combined with other appointments; a compact clutch may be enough for a seated occasion dinner. These are Moyo Lane styling ideas, with the amount you need to carry deciding the bag size.
