Speaking at the event, Chief Executive, Mr. Emeka Mario Okonya said, “With very few local cafés around, we wanted to have a friendly and comfortable environment where friends, family and business associates can hang out and be treated to exquisite gourmet. The location has been designed to give customers a relaxing and refreshing break from the hustles of the city. We hope to build a unique Nigerian brand to compete with the international players coming into the country. We offer more than just tasty food. We offer a unique experience which we’ll constantly strive to improve on to meet our customers’ needs”.



“We are putting together a number of periodic activities aimed at ensuring that customers not only enjoy good food but also have fun and excitement. These include a Childress day special and a cake tasting event amongst others. We would like people to be able to dine here daily and feel good about themselves and our offerings.” Mr. Okonya added.

Fudgies Café is open daily from 9am to 8pm from Mondays to Saturdays and will soon start its Sunday brunch offering from 12noon to 7pm.
