Authentic Ghanaian & International Cuisine

At BWO Restaurant in Ashanti, we serve the real flavors of Ghana alongside continental and international favorites — all made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
Our meals are packed with fresh vegetables and salads, something that’s hard to find at most restaurants in Ghana. Vegetarian, vegan, or have specific dietary needs? No problem — we’ve got you covered.

“Every lunch and dinner was different, but always of very high quality.”

No Fixed Menu — Fresh, Seasonal & Always a Surprise

At BWO, we don’t do fixed menus. We cook with the freshest ingredients available that day, sourced from local markets and the best suppliers we can find. This means our dishes change daily, waste is minimized, and every meal feels like a new discovery.

We love the creativity this approach brings to our kitchen — celebrating the rich culinary traditions of Ghana while tailoring every meal to your preferences and dietary needs.

Staying with us? Choose from bed & breakfast, half board, or full board. Just let us know your dietary requirements or allergies in advance — we’ll make sure everything is taken care of.

The food is delicious, a European-Ghanaian crossover.

Three Meals a Day, All Worth Staying For

Start your day with a hearty breakfast — think fluffy pancakes, french toast, scrambled eggs with grilled tomatoes, fresh bread with jams and fruit. For lunch, we serve fresh salads, wraps, or our famous BWO-style fried yam.

In the evening, a warm home-cooked dinner is always on the table — made from scratch with the freshest ingredients of the day, packed with vegetables and served with a choice of meat or vegetarian options. Different every day, always worth it.”

The food is amazing. Pat and her team can handle just about any food restrictions and she specializes in delicious, vegetarian and vegan dishes using local ingredients. We chose to have a bbq one evening, but they also offer a cooking workshop to learn local cooking techniques and dishes.
