    By far the most delicious coffee shop in Nuwara Eliya. Not only were the pancakes second to none, but also came they as gluten free if you wish so. Coffee tastes as flew in directly from Italiens best coffee shop. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

    we found this hidden gem during our trip. the place is quiet and perfect for a delicious organic coffee. we also tried their gluten and sugar free pancakes and they were delicious! By far the best coffee shop in town for a break after exploring the area and less than 15 min walking from the Lake.

    Best coffee I had in Sri Lanka. This place is literally amazing. Cute coffee shop with really good organic coffee! They also make delicious sugar free pancakes with homemade peanut butter, coconut and banana. The owner is super kind and sweet! Highly recommend this place is you want to enjoy a cup of coffee in a peaceful place.

    Coffee was hands down the best we have had in Sri Lanka and the hot chocolate was incredible. They have homemade oat milk for a small fee extra and it made the hot chocolate really creamy and thick. They also offered us four different types of sugar to add to our drinks which was a cool, unique detail. Since it was cold outside they let us sit inside which was good. Prices were high for Sri Lanka but the food was really tasty, organic and fairtrade and she was able to make the Ayurvedic pancakes vegan which I really appreciated. If I could I would give it 4.5 stars the only downside was the waiting time - we waited for over an hour for our food after ordering although only one lady was working and she was really kind and took the time to explain the different coffee's etc that they had. They also offer yoga classes an cooking courses. Overall a great experience and we would definitely come back.

    Beautiful small shop with a great selection of local Sri Lankan Arabica and Robusta coffee along with delicious healthy pancakes. The coconut honey along with the ayurveda pancakes was really special and a must try. Carrot pancakes were made with two types of coconuts and had a rich coconut flavor and was also delicious and especially enjoyable if you like coconuts.

    Edited: we came back for breakfast. We waited 1.5 hours for our breakfast and it all came one after another. Very sad. The porridge costed 2100, which is very expensive for Sri Lankan standards. I guess if we hadn't waited so long, we wouldn't have been that disappointed 😞 They were actually closed, but I still got a very delicious chai and a juice. The chai comes with three different kind of sugars, soo good!

    Cozy little place run by a lovely, smiley woman! The breakfast menu has interesting porridges, pancakes, and toasts to try and they do coffee and other drinks as well. Beautiful outdoor terrace -- nice place to relax with a book and a hot drink!

    Had a good cup of coffee and a great hot chocolate here! Drinks in Sri Lanka tend to the sweeter side, so do ask for less sweet. Coffee was made with organic Sri Lankan coffee beans (robusta) so it has a more bitter extraction, but much better than the average cup of coffee I've had so far. The lady who runs this shop learned how to make coffee/drinks in Germany. Quaint place to chill out!

    We had the most delicious breakfast here. We ordered pancakes, the English breakfast, and a rice milk dish that’s usually served on special occasions. Very good. Great service and great atmosphere. We would highly recommend :)

    Stopped by this nice local coffee shop on our walk down the hill from our apartment in Sri Lanka. Coffee and Lattes were wonderful and the pancakes were the best! Our table also got the milk rice and English breakfast and both were super filling and delicious. Thanks to the host for the service and we hope to come again!
