    Once you are in Accra you are really spoilt in finding food joints and restaurants to experience.  There are over 200 different restaurants in Accra with many of the most popular ones located in the central Accra and the Osu area. With a few upmarket and most recommended in and around the East Legon area. If you are looking for food near me then use our restaurant near me search function. The search will allow you to search for all restaurants in your immediate location where ever you are in Ghana. Here we have listed 20 places to eat in Accra that you must try!

    How we compiled the 20 must-try places restaurants in Accra?

    Our must try places to visit in Accra for food and to chop is based on recommendations from people we spoke to and from our own favourites. The list is not in any ranking order but just our table of what we felt were the places worth experiencing when you visit Accra either if you are on holiday or if you are coming in for a weekend from another Ghana region or town.

    What type of restaurants are in Accra

    Accra is a busy city so you will be sure to find every type of cuisine from Indian, Chinese, French, Japanese to other African country dishes. You will always be spoilt for choice for finding Ghanaian cuisine ranging from upmarket jolloff to chop bar jolloff and Waakye.

    On our journeys, we experienced hipster ice tea bars to must-try local chop bars to even the most upmarket and exclusive dining experiences that could be found in Accra. The viewGhana team spent a lot of time eating drinking and order which we enjoyed.

    In this trying times, we know that there may be some restrictions at some places or extra precautions. But we recommend that we all show our support for these places and follow the rules and keep them going.
