Apparently we dont even understand what they sell. No wonder they hate us. Let is stick to Njuguna's

Fight ignorance with ignorance. Get a bunch of 20 unemployed youth uwapeleke treat huko, if they don't serve you immediately, you hang around in the lobby just chatting away like there's nothing wrong. Eventually they will get annoyed and seat you somewhere, when they do just order like 2 coffees and 20 waters then drink that for like 5 hours, always politely asking for refills. Make sure you give them no valid reason to kick you out, that way if they do kick you out CNN is on speed dial, I wish ningekuwa Kenya, wangejua that fufu ni cassava. And tipping is not a must, you only tip when you have received good service, 10% is the standard, when you get bad service leave some pennies. If more Kenyans stood up for their rights, they will realize they are better off treating you well. They want you to get pissed off and never come back, that's why more and more people should visit the placeand order one item, there's nothing worse than a full business premise with little or no revenue!

ArtCaffe
The Artcaffe Family, would like to respond to the Facebook-generated account of what happened at the Village Market Artcaffe Bakery on June 18, 2013.

A customer approached our Village Market branch bakery for his regular purchase of croissants. He was sold a large number of croissants, approximately 50 per cent of the remaining stock. We were happy to have his business; the client was immediately served as per his order.

On noticing the large size of the order, the branch manager advised the customer that in future it would help Artcaffe if the customer made larger orders in advance.

Advanced orders help the bakery plan for the greater need, ensuring that pastries remain available for take-away and in-person customers.

The suggestion was not well received leading to a minor disagreement in which voices were raised. The client was asked to step out and calm down as he was interfering with other customers who were having their breakfast. He left and came back into the restaurant after a few minutes where he had a fruitful discussion with the management team before leaving with his croissants as per order.

In the end the matter was resolved amicably. The manager and customer shook hands and the customer stated that he would continue to be an Artcaffe customer.

NO arrest or threat of arrest occurred during or after the incident.

The disagreement was based purely on the size of the order and NOT on race.

As a Kenyan company we do not tolerate discrimination in any form in our establishment. We employ and support over 550 staff members and their extended families, living and working here in Nairobi.

We work very hard to ensure that our customers get great food and service every day.

Where we have an incident of poor client service we use it as a learning experience to ensure that we improve our customer experience. We encourage customers who have received poor service to lodge a complaint with us to enable us improve our services so that the experience is never repeated.

Artcaffe is and will continue to tirelessly work to improve our service.

We thank all our loyal customers who have stood by us and continue to show us their love and support. We strive to continue to provide you with the best service and food possible and look forward to continuing our lasting friendship.
