15 Things You Didn't Know About 2go Restaurant — Abuja's Newest Sports Bar with a Twist

By: Shawn
‎Aminu Kano Crescent in Wuse 2 is no stranger to vibrant nightlife, but with the grand opening of 2go Restaurant on April 28th, 2025, a new kind of energy is arriving. Blending the high-octane atmosphere of an international sports bar with the speed and comfort of a fast-food giant, 2go is poised to change the way Abuja eats, drinks, and celebrates the game.
‎
2go Restaurant is Abuja’s rising star. Killer eats, lively vibes and perfect for die-hard sports fans.
‎
‎Here are 15 things you probably didn’t know about this exciting new spot:
‎
‎1. It’s Nigeria’s First "Fast Sports Bar" Concept
‎
‎Think of it as if McDonald’s had a baby with Buffalo Wild Wings. 2go is designed for fast service without compromising the bar-and-grill experience—making it the first of its kind in Nigeria.
‎
‎2. Built for Game Day Glory
‎
‎With over 20 high-definition screens—including one 200-inch mega screen—no seat is a bad seat. Whether it’s Premier League, UFC, or NBA, every angle is covered.
‎
‎3. Local Flavor Meets Global Menu
‎
‎While burgers and wings are staples, 2go celebrates Nigerian street food too. Expect suya tacos, smoky jollof bites, and peppered turkey sliders that rival the best in Lagos.
‎
‎4. It’s Not Just About Sports
‎
‎Don’t be surprised to catch an Afrobeats listening party, comedy night, or quiz competition on a Thursday. 2go is doubling as a cultural hub.
‎
‎5. “2go” Is Built for the Modern Hustle
‎
‎The name captures the essence of the brand: fast, flexible, and made for a generation that lives life on the go. Whether you're dining in, ordering out, or just grabbing a cold one mid-match, 2go moves at your speed.
‎
‎6. You Can Order From Your Table (Without a Waiter)
‎
‎QR-code ordering lets you browse, order, and pay right from your seat—just like in top-tier global chains. No flagging anyone down required.
‎
‎7. The Interior Is Designed Like a Stadium VIP Lounge
‎
‎Stepping into 2go feels like entering the VIP section at a world-class stadium—sleek lighting, leather booth seating, and walls lined with vintage jerseys and sports memorabilia from around the globe. It's luxury, with a side of fries.
‎
‎8. There’s a Secret Menu for Regulars
‎
‎Word is, once you’ve visited a few times, you might get access to the off-menu "Legends List"—featuring hidden items like Guinness-glazed wings and smoky plantain chips.
‎
‎9. A Drive-Thru Is in the Works
‎
‎In the pipeline for late 2025: a 24-hour drive-thru that will serve signature items and cocktails (to go, of course—non-alcoholic for drivers).
‎
‎10. Their Chicken Sandwich Is Already a Legend
‎
‎Inspired by the U.S. “chicken sandwich wars,” 2go’s take has locals buzzing. Crispy, spicy, and topped with suya aioli—it’s addictive.
‎
‎11. They’re Serving the Coldest Draft in Town
‎
‎Thanks to a custom-engineered draft system imported from Germany, 2go pours its beers at a frosty -2°C—colder than most bars in the city. Whether you're celebrating a win or cooling off after a hot Abuja day, this might just be the most refreshing pint in Wuse 2.
‎
‎12. The Branding Was Designed for Instagram
‎
‎Every detail, from neon signs to branded fries boxes, was created with social media in mind. It’s not just a restaurant—it’s a photo op.
‎
‎13. Happy Hour Isn’t Just Hourly—It’s Every Hour
‎
‎2go runs dynamic pricing. Drinks and food items change prices based on game momentum and crowd energy. Think surge pricing meets fun.
‎
‎14. They’re Serious About Sustainability
‎
‎Biodegradable packaging, zero single-use plastics, and locally sourced produce whenever possible—it’s fast food with a conscience.

‎
‎15. Opening Day Is a Party You Don’t Want to Miss
‎
‎Expect live DJs, a surprise celebrity guest (rumor has it, it’s someone from Big Brother Naija), free wings for the first 100 guests, and a chance to win a year of free meals.
‎
‎Final Whistle
‎
‎From die-hard sports fans to foodies on the hunt for the next big thing, 2go Restaurant is setting a new standard in Abuja’s dining scene. With its unique blend of atmosphere, great food, and unforgettable vibes, this spot is quickly becoming the MVP of the city’s nightlife.
