    I know this restaurant since 1996. I am familiar with the family who runs this restaurant. It won't be an exaggeration if I tell that the chappathy and porotta and the kuruma tastes still the same as I enjoyed 23 years back. Masala Dosa and channa battura are fantastic here. So many memories here . In 1996 I was preparing for my MBBS entrance exam under the guidance of Radha Krishnan sir and nambeesan sir. I miss valsettan, Gigi and Sunil here. I have been visiting swamys once in 3 years at least. Our pellisery Lodge is a memory now even though mash officers Lodge is still there.

    Good option for vegans. Situated very close to the civil station, the restaurant is quite busy always. Tried masala dosa and vada. Both were nice. Wash area is neat. Digital payment accepted. Satisfactory service provided.

    Masala dosa , one among the best available in Thrissur They even open on hartal day and free food on that day. Customers can always feel free to pay or not as per their wishes on hartal days. Very kind and influencing people.

    Swami's Cafe is situated at a cardinal point - just opposite the Civil Lines, Ayyanthole. Mother Hospital is not far from this area. All the food stuff served here are excellent in taste and sumptuous for our stomatch. Suitable for common man's pocket. The hotel caters to the regular staff working in the Civil Lines and the courts. The hotel is just off the West Fort area and Poomkunnam is not far away. Town buses are plenty to this side. Started in 1969 in a humble way, the growth of the hotel is phenomenal. The present proprietor is Sri. V G Kannan whose expertise in the area of culinary management has earned the public acclaim that this Hotel is not just another hotel but, is rightly the 'Taste of Trichur'.

    Swamy's cafe is a small vegetarian restaurant located bang opposite to the ayyanthole civil station. The ambience isn't much to talk about but the hotel is tidy and well kept. The service is very fast and there is always a crowd here. Food is quite taasty especially masala dosa. Rates are a bit on the higher side given the size and ambience.

  • 5/5 Samuel T. 2 years ago on Google
    I have visited this place a few times. The food and service is good. Usually found to be crowded on working days, because it is opposite to civil station. Good for vegetarians and pricing is also competitive.

  • 5/5 30 ASHWIN U. 1 year ago on Google
    The food here is really good. I usually have Masaladosa and Uzhunnuvada. Both yummy. Not too costly too. There isn't much of an ambience to mention, but it's well maintained. The staff here is also really friendly. I usually have breakfast from here weekly. Would definitely suggest this restaurant for quick bites and breakfast.

  • 4/5 Vineetha M. 4 years ago on Google
    A budget restaurant offering the best food affordable.

  • 4/5 Sarath M. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a national strike day and they were serving food for free on all Strike days. And you may donate any amount u wish in their charity box. Batura and chana served here is a signature dish. Its a purely vegetarian restaurant. A fine place to visit with your family and for a budget and hygienic experience. Usually bit crowded.

  • 4/5 akhil m. 1 year ago on Google
    Pure Veg spot in thrissur. Filter coffee is yummy. Good snacks as well

  • 2/5 Salini K. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was not good. Restaurant ambiance is not good. Costly compared with the service they provide. Doesn't have enough space. Only thing I like about that place is their"Chole Batture".

  • 4/5 Sajeev N. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice vegetarian food and our family likes a lot..

  • 4/5 subin k. 2 years ago on Google
    Uzhunnu Vada is having authentic taste. Cost is little bit on the high side. One of the last remaining hotels from good old days.

  • 4/5 Mannathazhath A. 1 year ago on Google
    Good vegetarian restaurant in a strstegic location suitable for all types of customers, as there is no star rating. Staff very servuce minded. Car parking is the only problem.

  • 3/5 Milton T. 1 year ago on Google
    I visited this place at evening time. This is a vegetarian restaurant. This place accepts UPI payments too. The cleanliness was satisfactory. The quality of food items was good.

  • 5/5 ASHWIN U. 1 year ago on Google
    I love the food here. Especially the Masaladosa and Uzhunnuvada. It's really the best you can get in Thrissur. It's usually a bit crowded and if going alone, not much of an issue. Usually crowd from people visiting the Collectorate.

  • 4/5 Vivek V. 1 year ago on Google
    Masala dosa is good. Meals can have salt a bit more for all curries

  • 4/5 Govind R. 10 months ago on Google
    Known for giving free food during hartal, this is a famous hotel in the area with a long history. It's always abuzz with people and it a favourite of the lawyers and officers from the collectorate nearby. They charge a slight premium over other vegetarian hotels of the same ambience but the place is really hygienic and the food is tasty. Thier Uzhunnu vada with pudina chutney is a must try during tea time. Thier chana batura with salad is also an another delicacy to try which is surprisingly not mentioned on the menu and is only available after noon. The only downside is that they close rather early at 8 PM.

  • 3/5 Madhu GOOPURAM V. 10 months ago on Google
    I went there to have tea at afternoon,i had masala dosa and tea. I can say about the food that not bad but not very much tast an average restaurant and there has been shown they serve Chinese items also as i had went in afternoon i didn't try it but I feel as it's a pure vegetarian hotel their dosa items and tea/coffee should be very good for customer then only we can say it's a good restaurant.

    Simple and humble if you are hungry and just want to peacefully eat. Very polite and proactive staff - I had regular meals, reminded me of times when these types of "meals" Hotel were plenty and easily accessible.

  • 4/5 Sajeev K. 7 months ago on Google
    A traditional Vegitarian Hotel. We can feel nostalgia while taking food from this place. 25+ years back I have enjoyed different varieties of vegitarian foods from Thrissur. Good food.

    A good option opposite collectrate. Vegetarian and rates are affordable. Fresh cofee is highly recommended. They are very strict about quality of ingredients used is a added bonus. Good option with reasonable prices. Go for it.

    On 14th July 2020 I had visited swamys cafe in Ayanthol and orderd Meals. Absolute Garbage Food, Sambar had no salt and there was no Good Side dishes one was an Chutney and other was Banana Plant Stem dish. Even the Rasam was mediocre at best. And for the meals I had to pay astonishing 70rs. It felt like my Hostel food was far better than this
