    I love this place more than any other in Kochi. They have live piano music from 6.30-7.30pm. You get a 25% discount on your drinks from 6-8pm which is fantastic. The ambience here is great and bar counter is well maintained with beautiful woodwork. There is no rush here at all times. I have had Bloody Mary and Mojito Cocktails which were served in jars containing 90ml vodka. The snacks were also good and fresh. The best thing about this place is the location. It’s located away from the busy city life and along the pristine backwaters of Kochi. You need to be there to truly appreciate the location and the drinks. Forgot to mention, they have cigars those which you see in Cuba though I am not sure whether it’s Cuban or some other variety. Not seen anyone smoke those in here.

    I love this place for hangout Lobby bar. Super excited. The outdoor seating is nice but the weather in Kerla not always good. Service is good. Decent selection of booze.

  • 4/5 Alekh S. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a part of Taj Malabar. It's inside the hotel right in front of the lobby. Cozy atmosphere and comfortable seating arrangement. Unfortunately couldn't taste any of its finest cocktails because of dry day during my last visit. But all in all its a warm, cozy and cool place to hangout with your friends.

  • 5/5 Zaid S. 2 years ago on Google

    Weather you are staying at the hotel or not, the Bar is worth a visit for its authetic ambience. One feels at place at Mattancherry when visiting such interiors spiced up with wooden furniture. Relaxing sofa for two are not just comfortable but also intimate as they are spaced well with its cushions. Dim lighting may add to the intimacy as planned. One may go there for its food too, for its garnish, serving and display.

    The Mattancherry Bar at Taj Malabar Resort and Spa in Cochin offers a wonderful ambience with well-maintained woodwork at the bar counter. It consistently maintains a calm and relaxed atmosphere, with no overcrowding. The snacks provided are fresh and delicious. What sets this place apart is its scenic location along the tranquil backwaters of Kochi, offering a serene setting to enjoy your drinks. Additionally, they offer cigars reminiscent of those found in Cuba, although their origin may vary. Smoking of these cigars is rarely seen within the bar.

    As I stepped into the mattancherry bar, I was immediately enveloped in an atmosphere of comfort and sophistication. The sleek and modern decor, combined with warm lighting, created a cozy yet refined ambiance. The lounge was thoughtfully designed with comfortable seating arrangements, plush sofas, and elegant furnishings. The staff greeted me with warm smiles and assisted me in finding a suitable spot to relax. The lounge had a range of seating options, from private nooks for individuals seeking solitude to communal areas for socializing.

  • 1/5 I Y. 9 months ago on Google
    Closed for renovations. Not shown on site. Seems like the recent reviews given have been purchased in the last 3 days because it was not open one week ago according to the staff. Very disappointing for anyone who makes a trip out this way and could be avoided by the establishment being more transparent.

🫤 Food: I had this biriyani multiple times, but it has lost all its flavour. I tasted only the rice(eggtarian), it was nothing but a normal biriyani with a little bit different flavour. Even the salad also lost its flavour. Very disappointing. How can they ruin such a good restaurant like this? The us...
