Story

 A restaurant and live-music hot spot, Bukom Cafe was established in 1992 and has been a staple in the ever-changing Adams Morgan enclave of Washington, DC. Bukom was named after the bustling Bukom Square in Accra, Ghana, West Africa. An ode to styles and cuisines not only in Ghana, but all over West Africa, our goal has always been to provide cultural experiences in each bite. Drawing inspiration from traditionally prepared dishes from Senegal to Nigeria to Ghana to Liberia, the Bukom team consistently works to create dishes that maintain the richness of traditional West African cuisines, while adding a Bukom spin on it.

We have been featured in Bon Appétit Magazine, the Washington Post, BBC, and many boutique and world-renowned media outlets. Whether you come for the delicious foods, strong drinks, or live music, Bukom Cafe is open and ready to share the diversity of West African culture with you!
