5 Places To Chill At While Avoiding Lagos Traffic

Lagos really gets under your skin, guys, and it is okay to admit this. True, we can chant ‘eko o ni baje’ (and Lagos does look like it is holding up thus far), but we cannot ignore the fact that many of us are spending a large chunk of our youthful years stuck behind the wheel in never-ending traffic. Transportation in Nigeria can be very frustrating especially in Lagos.

Here are five places to wait out the first wave of traffic (which starts sometime around 3 until 7pm):

The Place

Leave work and head to The Place in Lekki Phase 1. You would be far away from the notorious ruckus Lagos is associated with. It overlooks the waterfront and all you need to do is sit down and forget about the day’s work. Food is always ready, drinks are chilled, and the environment is lovely. This can be a good place to call up friends to hang out as well.

Barcelos

Barcelos is a class of its own. You will have fun here. The read meats and chicken are sumptuous, and there are various cocktails for you to choose from. You are going to spend your time in bliss – exactly what you need after a long day. To make it more fun, come along with friends or family members, and everything would be exciting. However, if you are a ‘one-man-squad’, you are equally welcome here.

Domino’s Pizza

There is hardly anywhere you won’t find a Domino’s Pizza. Whether you live on the Island or Mainland, this place can serve you. The vibe is great, and the cosy interior is all you need to forget about the day. The pizza would leave you asking for more. With a pizza, you would almost forget the stress of transportation in Nigeria.

Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC)

This is a fast food joint with amazing service. You would experience the beauty of this place that would charm you off your feet. All you need do here is place an order from their famous menu which is filled with a variety of chicken drumsticks and chips. The environment is welcoming and would leave you in a perfect peace. Eat well and enjoy the rest of your transportation in Nigeria.

Jazzhole

The breathtaking design of this place can be all you need for an evening. Situated in Ikoyi, this is the place for bookworms with soothing music to calm your mind. There is no need indulging with food or wine here because it is the best place to get your mind right.
