Jollof Rice (n):

born in West Africa, made for the World

The City Jollof Story

City Jollof was initially conceived from a desire to share the vibrant flavours of West Africa with the city of London. Founded by a young Nigerian-born entrepreneur, our mission is simple: to bring the joy of Jollof rice and other West African classics into the heart of the City, where culture meets community.

 

Our signature Jollof rice - fluffy Basmati rice simmered in a rich tomato base with bold spices - has quickly become a favourite for London’s busy professionals, students and curious foodies alike.

 

Today, you can find us serving thousands of happy customers across central London. From Old Street, to our vibrant sites along Liverpool Street/Moorgate, and now our newest home on Rupert Street in Piccadilly Circus/Soho.

 

Whether you’re grabbing lunch between meetings in the City or looking for an evening bite in the heart of Soho, City Jollof is here to refuel your day with flavour, warmth and a true taste of West Africa.
