Soun Cafe and Restaurant
Serrekunda
Soun is a café and restaurant on the Bertil Harding Highway, the coast road that runs along the Gambian Atlantic shore. It describes what it does as breakfast, brunch and beyond — Afro-fusion cooking with a nostalgic Gambian flair.
The name carries the whole idea and the house explains it. Soun comes from the Wolof word souna, a variety of local millet, and it honours Joyce's grandmother, Kumba Soun Sanneh, who was born in the souna harvest season. A restaurant named after a grain and a grandmother is telling you where its cooking is rooted before you read a single dish.
My Gambia Magazine described the room as a fusion of flavours with a welcoming atmosphere, warm lights, soft music and staff dressed to match the decor — every part of it, they wrote, reflecting Joyce's commitment. The kitchen keeps separate cards for breakfast, for lunch and dinner, and for drinks.
It opens at half past seven in the morning on weekdays and half past eight at the weekend, running to eleven at night every day with no closing day.
The coast road connects Bijilo, Kololi and Serrekunda, so this is a few minutes from the beach hotels and from the Bijilo Forest Park, where the red colobus monkeys come down to the path. Serrekunda is the largest town in the Gambia, considerably bigger than the capital, and the coastal strip below it is where almost everything a visitor uses sits.
You will find Soun at Bertil Harding Highway 7, Serrekunda, Gambia.
