Solina Coffee | Tewodros Square

addis ababa has one of the oldest coffee cultures on the planet, and the city takes that seriously in ways that go beyond ceremony or habit. solina coffee, sitting off colson street near tewodros square, is where that seriousness gets quiet and personal. the square itself is a proper landmark, one of those spots in addis where the city slows down enough to notice itself, and solina fits that rhythm. regulars keep coming back, which in a city with no shortage of options means something. you don't build that kind of loyalty by accident or by being convenient. whatever draws people to this particular corner of colson street, it holds. start with whatever they're pulling that morning.
