    We bought a chocolate fudge cake. It was so light and not very sweet! We all loved that cake! All of their cakes and shorteats are very good! I always loved their Black Forest Gateau!

    One of the best short eats shops in Colombo. Bit high on the prices yet quality & tastes also maintained in high standards.

    They used to offer upstairs as a private dining area, but not anymore. Their food is definitely good quality, though towards expensive side. Service can definitely improve, their mannerisms, body language and even the way they talk to customers should improve 4

  • 5/5 Eshan W. 2 years ago on Google • 233 reviews
    Excellent variety of delicious cakes. Short-eats are tasty as well. Should have adequate quality of buns as well i.e. chicken, fish and the like. I bought some short-eats a few days ago. One of those was a chicken pastry. But in it there wwas no filling. It's horrible for Fab to do this type of business cheating poor customers.

    Even one star is too much for this place. My advise to all is be careful when you go to this place. They sell products that are 5-6 days old. Especially cakes. We'll never be going to this place. The staff have the audacity to argue also when we pointed out that the cake we bought was 6 days old. Worst place ever!

    Coffee and the chicken pie i tried is soo good! But there main thing, cakes..well i tried a piece of their one chocolate cake(I can’t remember the exact names) and it wasn’t much that I expected though! But i have bought many cakes from them for parties and birthdays which i can recommend!

  • 5/5 Dylan Дхармавикрама (. 5 months ago on Google • 40 reviews
    A great place for pastry and cake. They offer good quality food, I think a "A grade" restaurant. Worth every penny. They got a small parking lot, and good clean seating area. And stuff is very supportive. Price is acceptable for the quality and the taste. Highly recommend for pastry and cake. It will cost around 750-1000 rs per person.

    Fab is my favourite restaurant in Sri Lanka. I started eating at Fab when I was studying at ACBT Colombo. The Fab in Colombo 3 gave me nice memories. Therefore, when I want to eat out, I first decide to to go to Fab. Fab in Borella is also very nice. Fab is good for Sri Lankan people and foreigners too. I have more freedom at Fab restaurants. It is very clean. Fab employees are very very friendly. Food is also really nice. I recommend others to visit Fab restaurants and get a nice experience there.

  • 5/5 Sangeeth Harshendra Packiyarajah (PS H. 3 years ago on Google
    Best as always. Plenty of mouthwatering items to choose. Highly recommended to have Fab Ice coffee. Staffs are friendly and the ambiance is great inside. Front car park is not that sufficient however can manage. Highly recommended place have/take ur special orders.

  • 4/5 B M R P. 4 months ago on Google
    A good place for all cakes and baked goodies, savoury, and many more. Nice environment. Vast selections of cakes.

  • 4/5 Dulanga D. 3 months ago on Google New
    Came during a rather slow hour. The cakes don't disappoint at all. Love their short eats however their juice does need improving.

  • 5/5 kelum k. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Miles B. 1 year ago on Google
    Good service by the lady at the special order desk. I think her name is Situmi. Although they couldn't service my request, the follow up was excellent and that I count as service.

  • 5/5 Imosh D. 1 year ago on Google
    Fab is always a great place to enjoy some decent snacks. But I recommend this branch for their service. I ordered a Cheese cake and the lady charge handled it very well untill such time it was ready for pickup. Topjob.

  • 5/5 Viraj P. 1 year ago on Google
    Good fast food but little towards the expensive side compared to many other similar places. However the food quality is very high. Cakes specifically are really good.

  • 5/5 Prasanna L. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the finest fast food chains in Sri Lanka with most of Sri Lankan flavour short-eats and sweets. Very popular for cakes as well

  • 4/5 Firoze M. 1 year ago on Google
    This is an excellent place for short eats and cakes. They have a variety of short eats like Chicken pie, Chinese prawn roll, a variety of sandwiches. But the star of the show was the stuffed chili. The cakes may not be the best but are definitely worth a mention. Especially the chocolate cakes. Overall this is a good place for snacks and sweets.

  • 3/5 Lanil M. 2 years ago on Google
    There is nothing wrong with cleanliness and the quality of the food. But the food is expensive. Previously there was also a better food collection here. Customer service should also be improved.

  • 4/5 Dineth E. 2 years ago on Google
    A great place to have some snacks arround Rajagiriya. Their brand speaks it self for the quality. Food is great. But little expensive.

  • 5/5 Priyathasan P. 2 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Harsha R. 2 years ago on Google
    Quality and standard of the foods are best.. But need to improve staff's behavior. They need more training to how to talk with their customers..

  • 4/5 Dhanushke R. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice and clean place for quick breakfast snack. however need to be careful with the slippery staircase in a rainy day.

  • 4/5 Isuru C. 2 years ago on Google
    5 years ago, I wouldn't have recommended this place due to worst customer service, I sent some emails regarding this but I didnt receive any response from them. But last week I visited after long time, and I felt they had improved their CS in good manner. Keep it up

  • 5/5 Dilini K. 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    I have ordered food for various parties a several times. The service has always been top notch. They are always courteous and helpful. They even helped me carry my order today to a place few hundred meters away from the shop, which was extremely nice of them to offer even without being asked.
