Kenya, March 15 -- Captains Lounge is a popular entertainment place in Athi River, which is about 30 kilometres southeast of Nairobi's city centre. It is a favourite spot for both locals and visitors.
The lounge is lively, especially on weekends, and offers a mix of food, drinks, and live music that make it a well-known place in the area.
Located along the Nairobi-Mombasa Highway, the Captains Lounge is known for its relaxed atmosphere and various activities.
During the day, it is family-friendly, but in the evening, it becomes a vibrant nightlife spot.
On the menu, you can find their famous grilled dishes, like nyama choma (grilled meat) and fish, along with a variety of cocktails and local drinks.
People say that live music performances featuring local bands and DJs, usually start at 8 PM on weekends, attracting crowds from Athi River and other areas.
The lounge has also gained attention recently for hosting community events. Last month, it was used for a charity fundraiser organised by a local youth group to help flood victims in nearby informal settlements.
"It's more than just a lounge; it's a place where people come together," said a regular customer named James.
Today, there were no major news or issues reported about Captains Lounge. However, since it is close to the Athi River, there have been worries during heavy rains.
Captains Lounge is open from 4 PM to midnight every day, with longer hours on weekends. As night falls, it lights up Athi River's social scene, offering food, music, and a sense of community that keeps it popular.
