    Great place to hang out and relax. Or to party on through the night. The staff here are so fun and friendly. One of the few places we liked for decent cocktails. The rooms our friends were staying in upstairs are amazing as well! Can’t wait to come back for karaoke night!

    This bar is really magic one. Everytime good music and you can chill with wonderful sea view and positive vibes. The staff is friendly and helpful, you can feel free and relax, having some drinks and food. The food here is really tasty one and you have a large choice of sea food, salads, soups, snacks. My favorites here are cream of spinach soup and hawaiian grilled tuna fish. Also they have very comfortable new stylish rooms with all accomodations, large balcony and some rooms have nice sea view as well. Every Tuesday they organise karaoke so you can sing your favorite song and enjoy. Every Thursday they have a good party with electronic music. Actually anytime you can have fun in this place and meet very interesting and nice people. And the best sunsets you will also have here100%!!!

    Really beautiful place. All food was really delicious - especially tuna steak and chicken hamburger. The drinks are big and for very good price. Staff is kind and friendly. I love this place!

    Great beach bar in Hikkaduwa and I think that this is the only place where you can have some fun and listen to music in the evening. Tuesday karaoke was totally fun. Although it takes a really long time until they bring the ordered food.

    Thursday night parties are the best In Hikkaduwa and is must to visit. I personally like that they are generous with alcohol in their cocktails. The staff is super friendly and is always willing to help with anything you can ask them for. I believe it is the staff that makes that place so unique and famous among the tourists.

    We came here for breakfast on our first day! It was really nice! Fresh ingredients, enough big portions I would say! Although the coffee was not so good and unfortunately you cannot pay by card! That’s why I give 3 stars. The view and the place is beautiful and relaxing.

    Great place for the sunset. Right in the beach and not as busy as a little further south.

    You can see a nice sun setting if you are staying in Funky De Bar in the evening. What a nice place it is. Every Monday evening there is a special event until early morning. It gives you the best happenning of the Hikka beach. So much fun.

    The only problem with Funky Bar is that once you come here you can't leave. The food is great and Chandi & Priya will make you feel right at home. Lahiru and Sudunona will make you the perfect cocktails for those sexy Hikkaduwa sunsets.... What's more? It's right in front of the best surf break. Damn... You don't need much else.

    Thursday night: It’s sad that the personal there is rude, they also try to scam you on almost every drink you order, so watch out for the extra drinks they are trying to charge you for. It was really funny how the bartender tried to use calculator to do some crazy math just to show me wrong numbers, cmon man, math ain’t hard. I was super polite and respectful, always were bringing my empty bottles and glasses, ordering directly from the bar, and that is what you get in return. Lady in previous review mentions stealing things from her and never returned. DJ is great for the place and crowd is also nice and pretty mixed up.

    Really enjoyed the vibe of this place. Ola was very nice. The AC rooms were spacious and clean - good sheets, good shower pressure. Excellent sitting area for lounging while watching the ocean. The staff at the bar were all so friendly as well. Would recommend for sure!

  • 5/5 Stefan S. 2 years ago on Google
    I liked the atmosphere of this place and music was nice. I think the view from this place was the best part. Absence of coffee machine was a little con.

  • 4/5 Sarahí González P. 2 years ago on Google
    I feel this place is underrated. The environment is a bit off but I had a great experience. Maybe more music ? I would go again.

  • 5/5 Marichka T. 2 years ago on Google

    I spent two weeks in Hikkaduwa and visited funky de bar every afternoon to read my book, have a beer and watch the amazing surf break right out the front. I love this spot; the location, cocktails and staff are amazing!

    Worst experience ever in Sri Lanka and we seen lots of restaurants here. Food was disgusting and we waited over an hour for it - we were not able to eat it. Lots of local drug dealer meet here and the beer was warm.

    (Translated by Google) It seems like a Russian restaurant. The food is not very tasty. Prices are average. But a bonus: every night a movie is shown in Russian (Original) Вроде как русский ресторан. Еда не очень вкусная. Цены средние. Но бонус: каждый вечер показывают кино на русском

  • 5/5 Maria M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) If you come to dinner, then the portions are normal, like food. Not to say that it would be a delight, but it is possible :) our service was very fast, the prices are lower than in a number of others, and the server fee does not go on the check. When only dancing begins on Thursday, go to the bar for drinks, they will do everything with you. Very tasty, we had enough alcohol. But if you left cocktails on the table and everyone went to dance, you will be ready that everything can be carried away, and others will attach to your table. Left bag did not help. But 4.2 is still a little low for them, so 5, although rather 4.5. On Thursday, dancing until 5 in the morning! (Original) Если прийти поужинать, то порции нормальные, как и еда. Не сказать, что бы восторг, но есть можно:) обслуживание у нас было весьма быстрым, цены ниже чем в ряде других, и серверный сбор не идёт в чеке. Когда в четверг начинаются уже только танцы, за напитками идти к стойке, при вас всё сделают. Весьма вкусно, алкоголя нам хватало. Но если вы оставили коктейли на столике и все пошли танцевать, будет готовы, что всё могут унести, а к вашему столу пристраиваться другие. Оставленная сумка не помогла. Но 4,2 всё же низковато для них, поэтому 5, хотя скорее 4,5. В четверг танцы до 5 утра!

    (Translated by Google) Were 1 time, liked it. The most delicious fresh of all that I had a chance to try in Hikkaduwa. Great toasts. Plays reggae. Work around the clock! We were only one time in this place. The yummiest fresh juices we've ever tasted in Hikkaduwa. Nice toasts and Reggie 🎶 This place works around the clock. (Original) Были 1 раз, понравилось. Самые вкусные фреши из всех, что довелось попробовать в Хиккадуве. Отличные тосты. Играет регги. Работают круглосуточно! We were only one time in this place.

  • 1/5 Леонид Дикий �. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Expensive, not tasty. The waiter brought beer to a friend for an hour. It’s necessary to remind about the kitchen altogether, they don’t cook pizza although the menu “on the wood” from Priyaschimatongo has only loud music and it seems nothing like that. They don’t forget, they ignore, although the workload of the establishment is below average. Do not go, do not spoil your mood from the rest. There are other places where it is cheaper and you want to leave a tip. Cocktails - the price doesn’t pay off because they interfere greatly. Generously adding sugar. (Original) Дорого, не вкусно. Официант нёс пиво другу час. Про кухню вообще напоминать надо, пиццу они не готовят хотя в меню "на дровах" из Примечательнонго только громкая музыка и вроде ничего такая. Забывают не приносят, игнорят, хотя загруженность заведения ниже среднего. Не ходите, не портите себе настроение от отдыха. Есть иные места где дешевле и хочется оставить чаевых. Коктейли - цена не оправдывается тк мешают сильно. Щедро добавляя сахар.

  • 5/5 Frog T. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great food and great food. Large portions. The menu is more European and the price tag is slightly higher than in neighboring establishments, but this is due to the popularity of the place. Alcoholic cocktails are strong and well prepared. Smiling waiters, karaoke, parties. They don’t really like Russian music, but this is more likely due to the fact that English is an international language. I highly recommend visiting (Original) Отличная еда и вкусная еда. Большие порции. Меню больше европезировано и ценник слегка выше чем в соседних заведениях,но это из за популярности места. Алкогольные коктейли крепкие и хорошо приготовленные. Улыбчивые официанты, караоке,вечеринки. Не очень любят русскую музыку,но это скорее из за того,что английский интернециональный язык. Крайне советую к посещению

    Great place for a day at the beach! The music after sundown is quite loud but by day a good place to sit, read, take a swim. Welcoming vibe. In the alleyway is a useful shower. Weird is that they put fences around the place when holding parties to keep locals out, I'm not sure why..

😠 We waited for almost an hour for a breakfast burger and a Berry bowl. The burger was tiny and the Berry bowl only had one scoop of cranberrys, so not really worthy of that name.
