Restaurant Cameroon - The 10 best restaurants Cameroon in 2025

Practical information : Eating out Cameroon

Timetable

In town, food is available at all hours of the day and night. Restaurants operate to traditional service hours, while small stalls and open-air stands operate around the clock. In the morning, fritters with red beans in sauce and corn porridge are served, and from midday onwards, fish and chicken are braised late into the night.

Budget & Tips

Local street food is an integral part of Cameroonian life. So you'll find a number of stalls offering mostly salty snacks to eat on the go: spicy omelettes, meat kebabs, grilled corn and safou (safou is a small purple fruit that is eaten grilled and salted), avocado sandwiches, but also fresh fruit and peeled oranges... These on-the-go nibbles are inexpensive, but fragile stomachs beware.

The local way

In Cameroon, we like to eat spicy food. Very spicy. Be sure to ask about the amount of chilli before making your choice, especially when it comes to street food. Most often, whether in powder or sauce form, chilli is served on the side. The culture of braising and grilling is a must, so don't hesitate to try the absolutely addictive "brochettes de bosse" (skewers of meat and zebu fat grilled over a wood fire)!

To be avoided

In Cameroon, because of local beliefs, any drink ordered in an establishment must be served closed and opened in front of the customer. Under no circumstances should you accept a drink that has already been opened. It is also not advisable to drink tap water, as its quality does not guarantee that it is safe to drink.
