If you’re in Lagos and craving a fresh, feel-good spot that combines wellness vibes, stunning aesthetics, and surprisingly affordable eats, Lily & The Berry (often called Lily and the Berry or @lilyandtheberryng) is quickly becoming one of Ikoyi’s favourite spots.
As Lagos’ first dedicated açaí bar, it opened in late 2025/early 2026 and has already gone viral for its photogenic setup, nourishing menu, and chill energy. Whether you’re into fitness, healthy treats, or just need a pretty place to unwind in the evenings, here’s everything you need to know before your first visit.
Where to Find It: Location and Access
Lily & The Berry is tucked inside The Padel Club (also referred to as Paddle Club or Padel Club Ikoyi), a vibrant sports facility where people play padel—a fun racket sport blending tennis and squash.
Exact address: 57 Glover Road, Ikoyi, Lagos, Nigeria (some list it as 57 Glover Court; it’s near Bourdillon Road for easy navigation).
It’s fully open to the public—no membership or padel game required to visit the café. Parking is available at the club, and it’s super convenient if you’re already on the Island (Ikoyi, Victoria Island, or nearby). The integration with the padel courts adds a lively, active backdrop without feeling exclusive.
Opening Hours
The spot runs on an evening schedule, perfect for after-work hangs, post-exercise refuels, or late-night treats: Open daily from 5 PM to 12 AM (midnight) (the official site mentions 4 PM in some places, but most recent visitor posts and Instagram confirm 5 PM start).
This makes it ideal for sundowners, relaxed catch-ups, or evening vibes rather than daytime brunch.
The Concept and Vibe
More than just a café, Lily & The Berry is Lagos’ first authentic açaí bar, with the tagline “Find your blossom” and a focus on “where movement meets nourishment.” It’s designed as a “pause” spot—whether you’ve just finished a padel game, are hitting reset on healthier habits, or simply want a calm escape in bustling Lagos.
The ambience is cosy-modern and incredibly photogenic: think soft lighting, lush greenery touches, bright pops of colour from the food and drinks, indoor-outdoor seating, and intentional design that feels serene yet vibrant. Reviewers call it one of Ikoyi’s newest “hidden gems” with “mad aesthetics,” “gorgeous” and “cute” spaces perfect for photos (no restrictions noted—snap away!).
Capacity is around 50 seats, so it feels intimate but can get lively with the nearby court energy. It’s welcoming for everyone: fitness enthusiasts, influencers, friends on dates, or solo chill sessions.
Menu Highlights
The menu centres on fresh, natural, customizable options that balance healthy and indulgent:
- Signature items: Açaí bowls (e.g., Berry Cream / Merry Cream, Milky Açaí—often praised as creamy and fresh).
- Smoothies (e.g., Mango), soft serve/ice cream-style treats, protein shakes.
- Salads (e.g., Caesar), sandwiches/wraps (e.g., Turkey Ham, Caesar sandwich).
- Milkshakes (e.g., vanilla), fresh juices, coffee, herbal teas, light bites, pre/post-game drinks, and more.
Customization shines with toppings: granola, pistachio, chocolate, lotus biscoff, fresh strawberries/blueberries, Oreo, brownies, and beyond. Many visitors recommend starting plain to appreciate the pure açaí flavor, though loaded versions are popular too. It’s a mix of nourishing fuel and sweet treats without feeling overly “diet” focused.
Prices and Budget Tips
One of the biggest draws? It’s affordable for Ikoyi standards, often called “under 10k friendly” or “luxury meets budget.” Expect to spend from ₦10,000 for a satisfying visit, though extras can push it higher. Recent visitor breakdowns include:
- Berry Cream / Merry Cream açaí bowl (plain): ₦4,000
- Toppings: Granola ₦500, Chocolate ₦300, Strawberry ₦1,000, Oreo ₦1,000, Pistachio ₦1,500
- Milkshake (vanilla): ₦8,000
- Sandwiches (e.g., Turkey/Caesar): ₦4,500–₦5,500
- Caesar salad: Around ₦13,000
Totals from real visits: ₦6,000–₦11,800 for a bowl + toppings + drink/sandwich; some splurge to ₦23,000+ with multiples. It’s praised as great value—fresh ingredients, generous portions, and no “Island tax” feel.
What Visitors Are Saying
- Pros: 10/10 customer service, fresh and tasty açaí (bowls often sell out or go viral), stunning for photos/dates, cozy and clean, perfect post-padel or relaxed hangout. Many call it a “ritual” in Ikoyi with repeat visits.
- Tips for first-timers: Try the plain Berry Cream first (rated 8.5/10 by some); budget ₦10k for comfort; and go in the evenings when it’s buzzing.
- It can get busy due to popularity; açaí might melt quickly in Lagos heat if you’re snapping pics first. Overall, overwhelmingly positive, cosy, intentional, and worth it.
