OUR STORY

Named after the heat that makes it right.

280 Degrees is built around the heat, flavour and character that make great food unforgettable. Our name reflects the heat at which we fire our grill to help bring out the depth and richness of our ingredients. It represents our approach to cooking: bold flavours, carefully selected ingredients and food prepared with passion. Our in-house chef, with over 25 years of culinary experience, is on hand to prepare a range of hand-picked dishes inspired by the flavours and traditions of West Africa. From jollof and native rice to egusi, efo, moi moi, plantain, goat, cowleg, stockfish and freshly made swallows, our menu celebrates familiar flavours while giving every dish the care it deserves. Whether you're joining us for a casual meal, celebrating with friends and family, or planning a private event, 280 Degrees is a place to eat, gather and enjoy food made with purpose.
