Witnesses said a tricycle taxi was driven into the outdoor area before the bomb went off.
Police said the death toll was 14, with 26 people wounded. One hospital worker told the BBC however that he had counted 21 bodies.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility but Boko Haram, an armed Islamic group that wants to turn Nigeria into an Islamic state, was suspected.
