Afrizi in Basingstoke

Afrizi in Basingstoke, 2026/27 Good Food Award winner – Gold Seal.

Located in Clapham House at Festival Place, Afrizi proudly stands as Basingstoke’s first and only African restaurant—a vibrant, welcoming space where flavour, culture, and sustainability come together in perfect harmony. Since opening its doors in May 2022, Afrizi has been on a mission to showcase the richness of Nigerian cuisine while offering an inclusive dining experience for all.

Founded by Ezekiel through a passion for cooking and a desire to share the essence of African food and hospitality, Afrizi offers a menu that caters to a wide range of dietary needs, including gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, and fully halal options. Whether you prefer bold, spicy dishes or something milder, there’s something to suit every palate.

The restaurant’s lively atmosphere is enhanced by African music and décor, creating an immersive experience that goes far beyond the plate. From quick lunches to relaxed sit-down dinners, guests are invited to enjoy authentic flavours in a setting that’s both stylish and sustainable—complete with upcycled furniture and eco-friendly packaging.

Afrizi is more than just a place to eat—it’s a celebration of culture, community, and conscious dining.
