Maria's restaurant

Tucked near Makola Market, Buxachechnaja is a no-frills bar where locals swig cold lagers and chat over fried plantain. The air smells of charcoal smoke and fried fish; you’ll find Fante music spilling onto the street. It sits within Tema Energy Park’s backstreets, where drivers stop for quick drinks after long hauls. People gather under zinc roofs to swap stories while the city hums around them.

Mayday Shawarma & Bits is a fast food spot tucked into Tema where visitors can expect tasty grilled wraps stuffed with spiced chicken or beef and sides like fried plantain. This kind of joint is perfect for a quick, satisfying bite when craving those bold Middle Eastern flavours with a local twist. You will find it serving lunchtime crowds fast without fuss and doing a steady trade from early afternoon until evening. Tema locals pop in after work or between errands for that familiar, hearty comfort food served hot and straight from the grill. It sits in a busy part of town where office workers and neighbours alike know where to rush for a filling meal on the go.

+100 Bar & Grill is a neighbourhood hangout in Anagye-Effia Estate where friends meet over frothy lagers and juicy grilled bites; you will find locals chatting about football and the week’s news while wil watching the road outside. It sits on a busy street near the estate’s main gate, making it easy to pop in after work or on a weekend. You can expect a relaxed vibe with simple plates of fried fish and kenkey served alongside chilled drinks. This spot never tries to impress too hardcore, but it never stays empty either. It is the kind of place that feels like coming home to your cousin’s house where the music is just good enough to hum along to.
