Khan's BBQ
A famous Arusha street stall that operates as an auto parts shop by day and sets up tables on the street at night, known as "chicken on the bonnet."
Located on Mosque Street in central Arusha, this spot operates as an auto parts shop by day and sets up tables on the roadside for grilling from around 19:00, earning it the nickname "chicken on the bonnet." It holds a 4.6 rating on TripAdvisor. The menu features charcoal-grilled chicken, skewers, and mixed BBQ, served with naan and salads of varying spice levels. Everything is Halal, and no alcohol is served. Seating is outdoors on the street, no reservations are needed, and a mixed BBQ costs about TZS 20,000 to 30,000. Taking a taxi is recommended at night. Some diners note that the beef and mutton can be on the dry side, making chicken the safer bet.
