    Situated in roof top of the building where nawala steam boat is placed. Parking is either side of the road but can find a spot to park without much difficulty It was mentioned to wear smart casual(No shorts) but they let us in, but to maintain their exclusivity try to wear smart casual. The ambiance is nice with a good view of the city. They provide only few cocktails (around 4 - sex on the beach, Long Island,bullfrog etc) otherwise the menu has only liquor options unless you prefer cocktails this is not an issue at all. We tried only hot batter cuttlefish and black pepper pork, I’ve had better food than this and even though we ordered black pepper pork , we got stir fried pork or something, but overall food is very average , for most of the people this won’t be a problem 🥲 They have a menu for mains as well which includes Japanese food . Prices are not that high and it’s a good place for friends to hangout and have a booze

    This place is good for having a beer with friends, with a nice and calm rooftop. The food is delicious too. The beer cost me around 1200, which is reasonable. There are musical bands playing there on Thursdays and Fridays. However, when it comes to service, it’s not good enough. Other than that, it’s the best place to have some fun.

    This should name as Arse pub instead. Food atmosphere location everything was perfect other than the staff. Their faces were like rotten mangos 99% of the time like they have never seen people partying. We clean the whole place after our celebration still the staff was like giving us attitudes like we were having fun free of charge there. I’ve been to places but this is one of a kind. Worst

    Good bar, with friendly and polite staff. Many food options from their restaurant below can be ordered at the roof top bar. Only issue is the toilet. I don't understand why they can't do these up, when everything else is good.

  • 5/5 Channa N. 8 months ago on Google • 87 reviews
    This place has a very nice ambiance with a big TV inside and an outdoor area to sit. The staff is really nice , they went out of the way to get my wife a green tea which was not available on the menu. Food was superb ! You get Japanese and Chinese cuisine. However you need to order at least 1 alcoholic beverage to sit here.

    Food and service is alright.. Bit expensive than the bar at the ground floor. But the view at night and the clamness is worth the trouble.

    Highly recommended. You can host parties here as well. Decent food. Choice of music played here is excellent amazing vibes. Has a nice area to take Instagram worthy pics and they have a projector as well to watch your favorite matches.

  • 1/5 dimitri d. 2 months ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    I wanted to bring to your attention the prolonged wait times I experienced during my recent visit to your restaurant. Despite placing my order promptly, it took nearly two hours for my food to arrive due to what seemed like understaffing. With only two staff members attending to around 30 tables, the service was understandably slow, resulting in a less than satisfactory dining experience. I believe increasing the number of staff during peak hours would greatly improve the efficiency and customer satisfaction at your establishment. I hope you will consider addressing this issue promptly to enhance the overall dining experience for your patrons.

  • 5/5 Gananath D. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best roof terrace bars. Best in Nawala..reasonably priced food and bewerage. Great service

  • 1/5 piyumi h. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place to hangout.friendly staff. But it takes ages for the food to be delivered. We waited more than 45 mins. seems there is less staff to serve .Also the food doesn't worth the price. They could do better.

  • 2/5 Danesa W. 4 years ago on Google
    Good : *Nice roof top; Nice view *Parking with security *Cheap Alcohol *Friendly and helpful staff 🤘 Bad: *Food is between okayish and bad, and might arrive cold. *Portions are extra small and most will have to order two items from the menu. Disappointing !!! (Happened to us) *Getting waiters' attention can be a challange *Two rats were playing arround. I don't mind having rats arround but the ladies were annoyed 😂 **Won't visit again

  • 5/5 Shanilou P. 3 years ago on Google
    Really chill spot. Goooood food. Great ambience. Polite servers. But roaches in the bathroom 😱 scary! Terrible tiles on the floor. Sooo slippery. Shape view. Nothing amazeballs but decent enough.

  • 1/5 Anuruddha A. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice ambiance... But... The pizza is horrible. The sausage pizza in particular... Even the sausage topings had no taste. Not at all worth the Rs. 1,200 they charge for that. The beef burger was not edible. Its smelled bad and seemed not properly cooked. Food wise horrible experiance.

  • 1/5 Tanishka F. 3 years ago on Google
    Food is great but the staff at ace pub is horrible. I wish if the management takes this seriously and recruit more friendly person. We were treated like trash. Sad to see such service from here. Im only talking about the staff member handling the pub. Date 11/04/21 around 1.30pm

  • 5/5 Asanka H. 2 years ago on Google
    Ace pub roof top is a nice cozy pub. You wouldn't find any cocktails here but the menu is nice. Hot butter cuttlefish is a signature dish. Music was too loud for my liking yet it wasn't so bad. If you are into sports, there is always a match of something !

  • 3/5 Dilnika S. 2 years ago on Google
    Their food is tasty, especially the seafood bowl but they need to improve on their service levels. Also you often find Geckos and Mice running around the rooftop, could be because it's an open area. But they need some serious pest controlling. 😅

  • 5/5 Ranitha M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice place with seating on the rooftop. I would recommend it to anyone searching for a place to have a chilled beer with a fantastic view of the busy colombo skyline. Friendly staff. Only packs of cigarettes are available here (they dont sell loose).

  • 5/5 Romein N. 1 year ago on Google

  • 3/5 Eranga T. 5 years ago on Google
    Roof top, with a stunning view of the city. Great place for a drink with friends. Food is OK, and most of them are in Japanese style. Little slow service, and bit expensive.

  • 3/5 Udara l. 1 year ago on Google
    Awful service. Had to wait hours for food and those are not tasty at all .Person who is handeling the pub is not customer friendly and doesn't know how to speak to customers. Horrible Service.(Please hire someone atleast friendly) Only positive things are rooftop area and Nice inside architecture. Dont recommend Food and lazy/impolite service.

  • 3/5 Raoul R. 1 year ago on Google
    It was good value for money BUT one of the staff members were rude by making faces of being unhappy when we ordered even the basic (like drinks and fries)

  • 4/5 Janaka A. 1 year ago on Google
    Drinks with a view in Nawala! Can't believe we only discovered this place today. Great to have a place like this in the area (and walking distance for us). Reasonable range of drinks and pricing. Mixed crowd when we were there (Fri night).

  • 2/5 Pradeep 1 year ago on Google
    Food was average. Staff were not attentive. Thought they were understaffed but then when I walked up to counter to order, the staff were all seated around on their phones. Don't think the management is making an effort to improve as it has been this way for some time. 🙄

  • 4/5 Vishwa A. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice ambience, specially on the terrace. Good booze and bites with prices that doesn't break the bank. Service is very courteous but can be improved in terms of speed and clarity. You can order food from downstairs (Steam Boat and Nanyori)

    It's a Rooftop bar located outside the hustle of colombo ( nawala) with a great chilled out atmosphere. Great views, nice breeze good music and decent food. Definitely a nice place if you don't feel like going all the way to colombo to have a drink with friends.

  • 4/5 Rukshan H. 4 years ago on Google
    Very chill place with a decent variety of choices at an affordable price range. The rooftop vibes are excellent but the food was very average. I wouldn't recommend the chicken platter but the sea food platter was loads better. The staff service was also very friendly and energetic. Overall it's an okay place to be after a tiring day with your friends.

  • 1/5 Maleesha P. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    I had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant. Despite being frequent customers, our recent visit turned into a nightmare. The service was unbearably slow, taking nearly 2 hours to receive our orders. The place was packed, and the understaffed team struggled to cope, making it the worst experience. Strongly advise against visiting on busy nights.

👍 A budget place where you can hang out with friends. It's located on a third floor facing a canal. Bit difficult to find the place as you have to follow a narrow road. The service is good and the food and beverages are average.
