It was the first in a series of four bombings which hit around Cairo on Friday.
Subsequent attacks hit a police car on patrol near a metro station in the capital's Dokki district killing one, and the Talbiya police station, from which no casualties were reported.
A fourth blast targeted a police convoy as it returned from clashes with Muslim Brotherhood supporters in the capital's Giza district in the afternoon, killing one.
The attacks fuelled fears of an increasing militant insurgency in retaliation for the military's 3 July ouster of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi and the subsequent crackdown on his Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists.
