Review: Godaïf Village (Ikoyi)

I came across this page on Instagram and I was really into their aesthetic, so I decided to pay them a visit and BOY, did I love it! Godaif Village is a café/bar/pizzeria; it’s such a cute and cosy space. Immediately I walked in, I was welcomed with the smell of coffee brewing, which I love. I got seated and placed my order - a bagel, turkey and cheese croissant, waffles and the English breakfast. Before you judge me about having this alone, LOL I had company.

Godaïf Village’s Turkey and Cheese Croissant

The meals took approximately 20 minutes to get to us. First thing I munched on was the turkey croissant and YUP, they got it right! The croissant was flaky and the cheese was just the right amount. Then the bagel… let me just say I had a terrible experience with a bagel I ordered somewhere else, so I was hesitant but when it came, everything smelt so fresh. The inside was super soft and the outside had a nice crunch to it. The waffle was nice as well; they get extra points for serving homemade strawberry sauce because it uplifted the whole meal.

Godaïf Village’s English Breakfast

And for the star of the day, it had to be the English breakfast. I’ve had the typical toast, eggs, sausages over and over but this tasted different. It was *literal* perfection. The bacon was nice and crispy, the omelette was yum, the sausages were just right — this was my favourite meal.

And I have to give it up for the drinks as well — they were amazing. I had hazelnut frappucino and my friend got fresh pineapple juice.

If you’re really keen on good service, you’ll definitely love this spot. The attention to detail and customer satisfaction is top-notch. The pricing is also fair, nothing extravagant. If you visit here, also make sure to grab a blueberry muffin to go. Thank me later! xoxo
