In a city like Goma—bustling with entrepreneurship, remote workers, and digital nomads—finding a comfortable, reliable place to plug in, focus, and get work done can be a challenge.
Below are three of our top picks: lounges and cafés that blend good ambience, food/drink, and a co-working-friendly environment.

1. Nyumbani Lounge

Located at 29 Avenue des Cannas (or near Boulevard Kanya Mulanga) in central Goma, Nyumbani is widely known as a café-lounge but also works well for remote work sessions.

Why it works for co-working

The ambience: reviewers describe it as “cosy”, “delicious food and great cocktails.”
Open for lunch and dinner and into the evening—flexible for early working hours or later hours.
Has café-style seating and reasonably comfortable surroundings.

What to check

Confirm that there is reliable WiFi and ample power outlets (not always guaranteed in lounge bars).
During peak dining or social hours, noise could increase. If you’ll be working, go earlier in the day.

Tip for your audience

Recommend bringing headphones and checking the power-outlet situation—plus ordering a drink or snack to support the venue.

2. Château D’or

Located on Boulevard Muley Benezeth in Goma, Château D’or is described as a café-boulangerie/resto-café and might serve well as a relaxed co-working venue.

Why it might appeal

Café-boulangerie setting tends to lend itself to longer stays with coffee, snacks, and decent comfort.
The setting is likely quieter than a dedicated lounge bar in evening hours.

What to check

Confirm operating hours and whether the space remains accessible for someone working on a laptop (some cafés close early or turn into casual dining only).
Verify WiFi, plug access, and how busy it gets midday or in the afternoon.

Tip for your audience

Recommend pairing a pastry & coffee with work time; it can be a good “sweet spot” for productivity in a café setting.
