    Definitely a 'would go back for more' type of cafe. Elaborate and tasteful menu. Good for both veg and non veg. One thing that distinguishes it from other cafes is how spacious it is. Great for a date or for a get-together. Very nice service and food. Liked the pizza specifically. Overall very good.

    We tried 2 of their popular main courses. Chicken parmigiana had a very tender & soft meat but lacked flavour. Battuta di Manzo Beef Steak was the best, good flavour and rightly cooked. Also their Pink fortune shake is a must try. Overall a great dining experience, good service and ambiance.

    If you love to watch football with your friends along with a good dining experience, this is one of the good options in Kochi! The Crumb fried Chicken and Chicken and Mushroom pasta are my favourite from their menu! The service can be improved though

    If quiet and comfortable place is what you are looking for this would be the right place for you. Food is great and the place will give you a nice vibe. The place also has an aesthetic touch if you are into it.

    Drove in here last night on my friends suggestions and boy was I satisfied. They have a small but spacious parking area. They have a small cafe on the ground floor and a bigger space for dinning on the first floor. The ambience is nice and cosy. So we started with the stir fry sausages and they really nice. And the milkshakes were absolutely yummy. My friend got the trio milkshake which he says is the best. Next we ordered the burgers. The shredded chicken burger was an absolute delight. But the veg burger is quite disappointing. It tasted of garlic . I would really suggest to have a non paneer veg burger that actually matches with the non veg burgers. Other than that we had a great time.

    Good place- even though located in the heart of the city, we won’t get disturbed by the city rush. They have a parking lot for 4-5 cars. Good food- both quantity and quality are uncompromisable. We ordered Chilly Fries and Chicken Parmigiana. The quantity was really impressive and both tasted really good. Good ambience- a silent place and well done interiors. Everything is kept clean. Your table is cleared even before they give you the bill. Good service- food is served fast and the staff is friendly. The pricing is on a higher side. Else, this is a good apot.

    The cafe has a great comfy ambience especially in the rainy season. The food is great. The favorites are hot chocolate, meat croquettes, and Mac and cheese.

    Right from the time cafe17 started back in palarivattom, I've been a fan of their food. Over the years i can surely say they havnt compromised on the quality of food even one bit.this is the new restaurant in pallimukku,nearer to the shipyard boundary wall. Located in a very sweet spot that in the middle of the busing city, yet secluded enough for a peaceful bite. Got parking space for a couple of vehicles. It's a 2 storeyed restaurant. With ground floor for grabbing a quick bite and the top floor for bigger groups and parties. The top floor is very spacious and has plenty of seating. Food. There's no denying that Cafe17 gets you the best of the best food kochi has to offer. Their continental food is just amazing. Pastas, steaks, burgers, sandwiches, triple sandwiches...all are a delight to the tastebuds. They offer all varieties of coffee, ice teas, and mojitos.. Icebull mojito has been and will be an addiction for me as long as i live. Their sandwich and pastas are a must try. Service. They serve you immediately with a smile and always treats you well. The orders are brot to you asap and will not leave you hanging and hangry. The owner himself is a great host and a wonderful person. My gratitude, thanks Nd best wishes for serving kochi with the best food for years. Ambience. It's got the essence of a lofi music to it's general ambience....soft subtle and calming. A tinge of deco to remind you that you still in a cafe to relax and chill. Good seats and tables. Awesome set of cutlery Nd napkins r available. The lighting is hip ,uplifting yet soothing. Overall If i create a list of top 10cafes in town this will take the crown. Kudos to the whole team.

    This has been my go to cafe for past 6 years that I have been on and off in this city. I have recommended this place to many and brought many of my friends here over the years. The ambience, the food, the music and if that is not enough, there's uno and some good books. Particular mention: the trio is one of the best milk shakes I have ever had. Juicy Lucy chicken burger also gets me going. The owner- Praveen, he's friendly and very professional. Pros: 1. Ambience 2. Customer + service interaction 3. Variety of options in the food menu. 4. Cold coffee/ Trio shake 5. Good music 6. If you're a football enthusiast, there's always a match on. Cons: 1. I'm too attached to this place to add anything on this list.

    Ordered chicken parmigiana and cottage cheese steak. Both were really good and portions proved quite adequate. The staff was extremely helpful, going so far as to advice against ordering an extra dish saying this much would be filling for 2. Dessert was also good

    One of the best cafes in the city which never disappoints you with the food they provide. The quality of the food is top notch always and yummilicious. Their pineapple and jalepeno margarita is an unavoidable drink very time I visit this place.

    Undoubtedly, the best cafe in Ernakulam. It was my hangout place in Ernakulam during 2018-20. Thanks to then manager Tony, whose hospitality and service made me a great fan of this cafe. I've tried out every dish in their menu and I must say it's so delicious. In fact, this cafe made me a big fan of continental food. Whoever in Ernakulam, or planning to visit there, must visit this cafe if you want to experience great food, ambience, and hospitality. Praveen, the cafe's owner, is a gem of a person. Whoever who runs an eatery should learn from Praveen on how to treat the customers. It's a postive feeling seeing him and the lovely staff everytime I visit there. Cafe 17 will be the one cafe I love to go again and again.

    Absolutely a haven for those who wants to sit, enjoy the peace with no buzzing and noisy ambience which we get elsewhere. Top quality cuisine with really well price menu. Must go for those who wants to sit alone and do their things.

  • 2/5 Pooja S N. 1 year ago on Google
    We went in with great expectation. Ambience is good but bit of a disappointment with quality and taste of food. We tried Meat croquettes, Cafe 17 chicken steak, Mixed non veg platter, cucumber and mint refresher, pineapple and jalapeño margarita. Drinks were exceptional, on the other hand main courses were bland, dry and flavorless.

  • 5/5 Radhu p. 2 years ago on Google
    Me n my friend dined in at Cafe 17 for lunch. We were pleased with how helpful and warm the staff was. We were able to avail Zomato pro offer for the dine in. The restaurant looked hygienic and well maintained. I guess the ambience could be enjoyed better at night time. The pricing is on the med-higher side. But the dishes we ordered were worth it for sure. We ordered: Chicken parmigiana- Excellent, very filling, chicken was perfect and the ratio of cheese and tomato sauce was spot on. I do wish the pasta they serve along with it wasn't so creamy. It was good. But i wished it was lighter. Cottage cheese steak with pesto sauce- Good, quite filling,the mashed potatoes were spot on too Sticky date pudding with toffee sauce?( I don't remember the name exactly)- okayish I honestly don't think you'll get the same experience while getting the food delivered

    Came back to this place nearly after 3 years for lunch. The quality still remains superb. Usually many restaurants dip their quality once they become a popular spot. But this spot still maintains the same quality, service and atmosphere wise. As well as the manager Sarath still remembers me even though i came here 3 years back. Keep up the good work guys.

    We had a great experience , we visited the restaurant for our family lunch. We always wanted to try Italian cuisine at Kochi ( as we are from Chennai). Cafe 17 didn't disappoint us. The menu has variety of options for both vegetarians and non vegetarians. What we ordered: Cream of mushroom soup Korean chicken noodle soup Cheesy fries ( must have) Tandoori veg rolls ( paneer and veggies) Cottage cheese steak ( Bolied veggies + 2 large portions of paneer in sause of your choice) Aglii olio pepporncino chicken ( spaghetti and chicken) Stroganoff chicken (Rice and chicken in cheesy sause) Cafe afogato ( expresso and vanilla ice-cream) In summary : Ambience is good. Food is sumptuous. Staffs are polite and explain the preparation in detail if you need help to decide on the order. Price is reasonable, quantity is good.

    I recently had dinner at Cafe 17, and my experience was decent. The cafe had a cozy and relaxed ambiance, making it a suitable spot for a casual dinner. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall comfort of the evening. Service was efficient, and our orders arrived promptly. Now, onto the food - it was alright. I ordered a pizza and few other dishes, while it was tasty, it didn't leave a lasting impression. The menu offered a decent selection, and the prices were reasonable.

  • 5/5 Jijith R. 2 years ago on Google
    Starters I ordered Cheese fries... It's really superb Chicken Ala kiev... Passion fruit mojito were some other things that I tried... Have visited here many times.. all their dishes are really superb...

  • 5/5 Amita S. 6 months ago on Google
    Cafe 17 has always been a go to place since ages but recently tried their vegetarian options and it was outstanding especially the soup, perfect soul food ❤️ and the other dishes were also equally good but the pizza was a little under seasoned but overall a must visit cafe in Kochi.

    Really good ambiance and food. The staff are experienced and friendly, and they were very helpful when we were picking what to eat. They even gave us complimentary desserts. Overall experience 9/10

  • 4/5 Aravind K M. 3 years ago on Google
    We went here on a weekend night and the place was quite busy, but not so busy that we didn't get a place to eat. The overall ambience is a pleasant one. The menu is quite diverse, mostly cafe style food. We had the onion rings, fries and 3 types of burgers. I liked the Juicy Lucy burger, which was a kind of chicken burger with an egg add on. The onion rings and fries were made well. We ended with a blueberry cheesecake for desert. The pastry was flavored and had chocolate crumb at the bottom, which was unlike the typical ones you would expect. The flavor and texture was balanced well, and it was delicious. I felt the portions are large enough to justify the price, you can keep that in mind while ordering for the party.

  • 5/5 Shirin R. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is consistently amazing! Most recent order was the burrito. Meaty cheesy goodness ❤️ The Chicken Ala Kiev, Parmigiana, crumb fried chicken and Tenderloin steak are the picks to go for imo

  • 4/5 Sony F. 2 years ago on Google
    The ambience, service and the food was too good. We had Grilled Tenderloin Steak, Chicken Ala Kiev, Bolognaise with meat balls. Everything was delicious. The steak was juicy and with the pepper sauce, it tasted yum. The Chicken Ala Kiev was crunchy and was very filling. The Peach Ice tea is a must try. We did order Lime Ice tea, but wasn't as good as the Peach Ice tea.

  • 2/5 Manu G. 11 months ago on Google
    Had a pretty terrible experience at cafe 17 the other day. The staff was friendly, but that was pretty much it. The food tasted horrible. Had a pesto pizza, onion rings, and some summer drink. The drink was decent (although expensive). Onion rings were pale and didn’t have any taste. We couldn’t finish the pizza, it was hopeless. Over and above all this, they didn’t switch on the AC. Kochi summers are pretty strong and it’s difficult to eat in a place without AC and ventilation. We just wanted to get out at the earliest. Overall, it was a bad experience. I have heard that it used to be a good place, but sadly not anymore.

  • 5/5 Ansu M. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Krishna B K. 1 year ago on Google
    I went here for lunch. The ambience of the place is very good. Calm and quite with may be 6 tables. The staff are polite and courteous. The prices are just a tad bit high. I got Chicken Parmigiana (4/5). The chicken was tender and cooked well. But lacked flavor. It was a bit bland. The pasta was too creamy and I did not like it much. I also got the Oreo shake. They gave it in a glass bottle which was good. Overall a decent place.

  • 4/5 Tara M. 9 months ago on Google
    had the bibimbap which was quite okay and the chicken teriyaki which was quite good. however the mango sorbet was out of the world!! the service was very good too! overall a good experience!

  • 4/5 Vinay K. 2 years ago on Google
    Cafe 17 needs no introduction for foodies in Kochi. The best in Town as far as cafes are concerned. The only problem was that about limited space available at the original place and the parking. So now both of those problems have been addressed once they opened this place. It's now in 2 floors here. The cafe on the ground floor and restaurant on the first floor. Had dinner with family. As usual had a fantastic experience.

    Went there with friends for dinner, a lot of options on the menu, I tried their pasta and brownie Milkshake, which where both really good. The quantity for pasta was quite alot and was really filling. The Milkshake was really good but felt like it could have priced it a bit more cheaper. There is quite some space for parking, maybe around 5 to 6 cars. Service was good and athe atmosphere is nice. One thing is the wash space is too tight. Also tried few other starters and food all tasted good. I’ll surely be visiting again.
