What to Expect
The Pantry on Jason Moyo Street is known as much for its bakery counter as its menu. Chidziya (August 2024) called the Deluxe Salad “rich and mazing”, and said the bakery section stocks stuffed doughnuts, cinnamon rolls, muffins and cheesecake tubs. Michael (May 2021) tried the half chicken and chips, bream, buffalo wings and chicken salad and said “All of it was sooo goood”, with the chicken salad Michael's favourite.
The mini burgers, loaded fries and chicken strips get praised too: Rosemond (June 2024) called the order “well seasoned, hot and a fair portion”, though flies in the dining area put Rosemond off eating in. Ntandoyenkosi (May 2022) found the rump steak “felt like the same old you'd get round the block” and said the steak “wasn't utensil friendly”.
Service is the recurring complaint. Several reviewers, including Ntandoyenkosi and Mpumelelo (September 2022), had orders forgotten or slow, and more than one asked for a small bar so drinkers have something to do while waiting. Julie (August 2025) simply wrote that “They need to improve their service”.

★★★★☆
The food here is great and reasonably priced. I especially love the Deluxe Salad, its rich and mazing! The Junk box with loaded fries, sticky wings and a slider has become a new fav for my kids.
★★★☆☆
Glad to have tried it out the first time. Will definitely make a second review of the place. The service was the down side really (they forgot our order lol). The environment is tops, all seats were occupied at some point but did not feel crowded/claustrophobic.
★★★★★
An awesome spot. 10/10 If you are looking for good food at very reasonable prices Soko's is the place to go. VERY clean and modern deco. Friendly staff. Service is fast.
★★★☆☆
I enjoyed their food so tasty accompanied by an excellent service team but however they should setup a small bar for drinker so that you can wait for your order sipping on your favourite cocktail or beer. A TV may also go a long way.
