The cozy Parisian café serves up mouthwatering dishes, from fluffy, buttery croissants to perfectly cooked sole de Douvres. And it’s a great place for a laid-back breakfast, a quick bite during your lunch break, or Easter brunch with friends and family. Little Paris was built to give you the perfect slice of France in Lagos, like a mini vacation in your mouth.
Maple Lagos
If you're in Lekki Phase 1 and looking for a diner that combines a lively atmosphere with a diverse menu, Maple Lagos is worth visiting. Their brunch offerings are particularly good, featuring dishes like fluffy pancakes topped with fresh berries and, of course, their signature maple syrup.
Their Creamy Hot Wings also come highly recommended, and you can pair your meal with one of their unique cocktails, such as the Bacon & Maple, for a memorable experience. The ambiance is vibrant, making it an excellent choice for gatherings with friends or family. They're open Tuesday to Sunday from 9 am until late.
Circa Lagos
Tucked away in a quiet corner of Lekki Phase 1, Circa Lagos offers a serene escape from all the city's crazy hustle and bustle. Its minimalist design and cozy atmosphere make it perfect for a relaxed evening out or a midday brunch with family, and their menu is a fun mix of international dishes, including a standout grilled mashed plantain with smoked mackerel sauce—a delightful twist on a Nigerian favourite.
COAH Restaurant
If you're ever in Ikeja and craving a laid-back spot with seriously good food, COAH is a must. From smoky jollof with tender goat meat to healthier picks like oven-baked fish and sautéed veggies, the menu–which especially features Mediterranean, Italian and French cuisine–balances comfort and clean eating perfectly.
The cozy setting also makes it great for casual lunches, chill dinners, or even a relaxed Easter brunch with friends. They’re open Tuesday to Saturday from 11am to 8pm, and Sundays from 12pm to 8pm.
La Chaumiere
This café and restaurant combo is known for its cozy, inviting atmosphere, and features a bakery, and both indoor and outdoor dining spaces, making it a great choice for early-to-late brunches, meetings, or just a casual meal. La Chaumiere is also a family-friendly spot, complete with a playground for the little ones.
Their menu includes a variety of breakfast options, such as their signature "La Chaumiere Breakfast,” and they’re open everyday from 8 am to 11 pm, so there’s plenty of time to drop by and enjoy the experience.
Lala’s Bistro
Lala’s Bistro in VI brings with it a relaxed, soft, charm with a stylish outdoor patio, cozy indoor seating, and smooth background tunes. It’s great for date nights or just kicking back with friends, and serves up tasty American cuisine with a side of super friendly service. The Bistro opens every day from 9am to 12am at 251A Sapara Williams Close.
Sycamore by Onebasket
Sycamore by OneBasket mixes great food with a beautiful, relaxed setting that works for anything from dinners to birthdays. The service is top-notch, and the menu–a mix of intercontinental and Nigerian dishes–delivers every time.
It’s also a sweet spot for Easter brunch if you’re in the area (you can catch their popular bottomless brunch on weekends). It opens everyday from 8am to 10pm, at 30a Bashiru Shittu Avenue in Magodo Phase II, Lagos.
Orchid Bistro
Orchid Bistro is a little spot in Ikeja that blends Thai (yes, Thai) and Nigerian flavours, offering dishes like their zesty Tom Yum Chicken and savoury Pad Thai Gai. And like Little Paris, it's designed to bring the authentic flavours of another country (in this case Thailand) to you.
The atmosphere is relaxed and peaceful, with a lovely garden setting that’s perfect for anything from a quiet lunch (or brunch) to a special evening out, and you can pop over at anytime from Tuesday to Sunday, 10 am to 11 pm for a good meal.
Flowershop Cafe
Last but not least, is Flowershop Cafe located in Victoria Island. If you want a spot that’s as charming as it is unique, Flowershop Cafe is the place to go. It’s literally a flower shop and a café; how cool is that?
While there, you can sip on their signature coffee, served in adorable flower pot mugs, while surrounded by beautiful blooms. It’s a great place for a casual brunch, and with Easter around the corner, it’s the perfect place to gather with loved ones. Plus, their free Wi-Fi makes it ideal if you also need a quiet space to work. They open every day, just be mindful of their shorter hours on Mondays (6pm rather than the usual 10pm)
We hope this little guide makes it easier to plan something special this Easter. And wherever you end up, remember to pause, be present with the people you love, and enjoy a great meal together.
