Our Story

A Taifa Norway original

Shadows opened with one idea: give the neighbourhood a place that takes food and drink seriously without taking itself seriously.

Who we are

Built around good company

What started as a small grill and a handful of tables has grown into one of Taifa's favourite spots to eat, drink and celebrate. We cook with local produce, we pour with care, and we treat every guest like a regular.

Our team is local, our suppliers are local, and our menu changes with what the market gives us. Whether you're here for a working lunch, a family dinner, a birthday or a Friday that runs into Saturday, Shadows is set up for it.

The Food

The Food

Ghanaian classics done properly — jollof, banku, fufu, grilled tilapia — alongside burgers, pizza and continental plates. Everything cooked to order.

The Drinks

The Drinks

A full bar of cocktails and mocktails, ice-cold local and imported beer, wine by the glass and a considered spirits shelf.

The Atmosphere

The Atmosphere

Low light, warm wood, an open terrace and music that suits the hour. Quiet enough to talk early, alive enough to stay late.

Entertainment

Nights that earn their name

Live highlife and afrobeats sessions, DJ nights, major football on the big screens and a terrace that fills up fast. Ask us about hosting your own event — birthdays, work parties and private hires are welcome.

Your experience

Looked after, start to finish

Friendly service, honest pricing in Ghana Cedis, quick kitchen times and a team that remembers your order. That's the standard we hold ourselves to.
