Where to drink Champagne in Accra?
Accra is loud, warm and always moving, a sprawling capital on the Gulf of Guinea where highlife and Afrobeats spill out of bars late into the night. Its nightlife has a polished side too, and that’s where the Champagne is: rooftop lounges and upscale bars where bottle service is part of a big night out.
The places on our map are in the city’s busier nightlife areas. Labone and the neighbourhoods around Osu, close to the centre, have restaurants and rooftop lounges, while East Legon, further north-east, is a residential area known for its bars and lounges. Champagne in Accra is mostly sold by the bottle, often with table service, and the big Champagne houses are what you’ll usually see on the menu.
Accra’s Champagne scene is still growing. Explore the Champagne Hunters map before you go, and if you find a bar or restaurant serving real Champagne that isn’t listed yet, add it to the map and help the next Champagne lover find it.
Good to know
Nights in Accra start late and finish late, especially from Thursday to Saturday. Traffic can be heavy, so leave extra time to get between neighbourhoods, and ride-hailing apps are the easiest way to move around. December is the busiest month, when visitors and Ghanaians living abroad come home for the festive season and events fill the city.
