    The smoothies were out of this world. They tasted so fresh and decadent, especially the chocolate one. Never had any smoothie like this before! Wish they can tell me the recipe, hehe. I also loved the Sri Lankan twist on Western food. The atmosphere of the place felt really hippy and chill. 10/10 would recommend!

    The place we visited the most in our stay in Sri Lanka. Mango magic smoothie and tropical turmeric smoothie are from another world! Potato rosti is a MUST

    (Translated by Google) One of the most interesting places for lunch in Weligama. Place on the 2nd floor with fantastic ocean views. There is a very casual atmosphere like in Sri Lanka, which is created mainly by young people from outside the island. Quite a lot of guests at lunchtime. Very friendly service and a fantastic menu. Meat and veg dishes. Moderate prices about 1000 rupees per set. Everyone will find something for himself. I recommend it because it is worthwhile and high reviews confirm it. Enjoy your meal 😉 (Original) Jedno z ciekawszych miejsc na lunch w Weligama. Lokal na 2 piętrze z fantastycznym widokiem na ocean. Panuje jak na Sri Lanke bardzo swobodna atmosfera, która tworzą głównie młodzi ludzie z poza wyspy. W porze obiadowej dość dużo gości. Bardzo miła obsługa i rewelacyjne menu. Potrawy mięsne jak i wege. Ceny umiarkowane ok 1000 rupii za zestaw. Każdy znajdzie coś dla siebie. Polecam bo warto a opinie wysokie topotwierdzaja. Smacznego 😉

    (Translated by Google) Great views of the ocean - the restaurant is located opposite the surf schools. For breakfast, they ate pancakes with coconut paste and fruit, and scrambled eggs - it was delicious. They quickly bring an order, you can pay by card. Fast wifi. If you are looking for local cuisine, then this is probably not here, because the choice is extremely small. More European salads, burgers. (Original) Прекрасный вид на океан - ресторан расположен напротив серф школ. На завтрак ели блинчики с кокосовой пастой и фруктами, и яичницу - было вкусно. Быстро приносят заказ, можно расплатиться картой. Быстрый Wi-Fi. Если в поисках местной кухни, то это, скорее, не сюда, тк выбор крайне мал. Больше европейские салаты, бургеры.

    To order food you need to stand a long queue. I think during rush hour you need to add workers. The interior is worn out - it needs a partial renovation and more chairs, because there is space near the window but no chairs and you have to walk standing up. Insta place but you can't take pictures because the crowd interferes. coffee is normal

    Not tasty. Little portions, veeeery big queue - we used to stay there more than one hour to order, after that around one hour we was waiting for our food. “King coconut” was as boiling water (you don’t have refrigerator? Why we should drink warm coconut) Don’t recommend at all!

  • 2/5 Waleria P. 2 years ago on Google
    We were here 2 years ago and because of the nice roof top and general vibe we decided to have a diner in this restaurant lately. We have ordered Seared Tuna and Fettuccine with Prawns. The meals looked amazing in the photos. However when we tried them we found out both of them were totally tasteless! We had to add lots of salt and pepper to be able to finish them. Also, fettuccine was overcooked and had only 3-4 little prawns. While tuna was not well seasoned and rice (I believe they use the same one for sushi) was not cooked correctly. All in all we were very disappointed with our meals - it’s least to say. It’s a shame because both of them have potential and the restaurant looks nice.

    Delicious food, great vibe, perfect view. Definitely worth visiting. Try jackfruit burger and fish and chips. Be prepared for a lot of meal to be spicy. Black pepper is also on homemade fries, but it was very tasty. We loved smoothie “mango magic”. That also serve breakfast menu til 12:00. Don’t miss this place. ❤️

    Great food but the food is a little bit more expensive than in the other local restaurants around. One meal is around 1000 Rs.- Still good for the quality and the taste! I can recommend everything! :)

    Perfect location, right across from a surf point on Weligama beach. Food in the restaurant is so good for breakfast lunch and dinner. Make sure to try their brownie!! Friendly staff and great service. The WiFi is really fast so it's a nice place to chill, eat and do work.

    Great spot for a casual brunch overlooking weligama bay. Lovely iced coffees (especially if you're vegan as this can be hard to find!). Yummy food. Really nice handcut chips(fries)! Be warned - it does get busy, so grab any available seating you can find. 😀

  • 5/5 Stan B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice place, but always very noisy and a lot of people. Cool view from the roof, where there is a restik, a small assortment on the menu. But tasty enough. (Original) Неплохое место, но всегда очень шумно и много людей. Прикольный вид с крыши, где находится рестик, небольшой ассортимент в меню. Но достаточно вкусно.

  • 5/5 Michał �. 4 months ago on Google
    favourite spot in Weligama for coffee, breakfast or just chilling 😎 many of the food options can be prepared gluten free, there’s even Vegan Banana Bread that’s made with rice flour instead of wheat one! we loved it

  • 5/5 Jonas W. 4 years ago on Google
    Rooftop restaurant in a hostel. Wonderful view of the Weligama Bay. The food is delicious! You can bring your own alcohol.

  • 5/5 Isi S. 4 years ago on Google
    Went there for dinner last night. Prices are for tourists, but the food was good and the location nice. There's open mic night every monday and we had a good time here.

  • 5/5 Epic! Forest Destine WORLD TRAVEL E. 4 years ago on Google
    Ordered three items here at one time. The fettuccine pasta was so amazing best out of all three. The burger was pretty good just bread was thin and ate it quickly and was still hungry so ordered the chicken parm and it was good and thick but wished it was served with spaghetti it other than that great. Fabulous views and good spot to hang out. Talked with owner and he even said can bring own beer here.

  • 5/5 Yevgeniya S. 4 years ago on Google
    Very tasty fish and chips❤️ and nice view.

  • 5/5 Jayagar Angelus V. 2 years ago on Google
    Right in front of the beach. Nice view. Pleasant during the night as well. Gets a bit late to be served if its crowded. Had chicken wrap and spaghetti with banana lassie, all three were great ! 👌 Fish and chips for dinner was great too ! fair portion. Usual charges, neither cheap nor costly.

  • 4/5 Matt S. 2 years ago on Google
    They had a few vegan options, I had a decent jackfruit burger. Adding a side of fries doesn't give you many. Friendly enough service, nice view of the sunset. Free water refill too.

  • 5/5 Ruby Tolentino S. 8 months ago on Google
    French fries was missing when we ordered burger this time. The waiter said maybe it was 2 years ago 😆 It's a bit sarcastic to say this as we had it last month same order same price. Hence all good to me still my fave place in Weli. Hang in there, mate! 😃

  • 4/5 Kenny G. 2 years ago on Google
    Everyone is always here. Definitely feels like the most popular hangout spots in weligama for backpackers or expats. The food is good and the rooftop is great to view the ocean or hangout and work all day. They have daily specials of sushi and fresh spring rolls. The dragon roll is awesome. If you like shrimp I highly recommend. They don’t have booze but they do have great desserts. We had a passionfruit tart that was amazing and their energy balls are good too. The chicken burger - the chicken patty was about half the size of the bun but with that said it was SO good. Spicy sauce, tangy coleslaw, and crispy bun...it was a great sandwich. And it came with a huge amount of thick cut fries. The chicken parm- very good, succulent chicken. Not a lot of tomato sauce but the cheese sauce was super yummy. The vegan bowl was not so great. Maybe if I was vegan I would like it haha Great place to chill and eat some good food. You order yourself at the register

  • 5/5 Eden S. 4 months ago on Google
    I loved coming to this restaurant every morning in Weligama! Every dish I tried was tasty and they also have different vegan cakes everyday! The staff were very friendly and there’s a great view!

  • 5/5 mannu g. 8 months ago on Google
    One of my favorite places in weligama Amazing place, relaxing and friendly vibes. Affordable and fairly priced menu. Staff are always smiling and welcoming. The food is one of the best in the south, western standards, Mango cheesecake, the Choco brownies is a must try. The offer a good variety of delicious food, sushi, vegan bowls, burgers, falafel and hummus and the champion of the menu is avo poached egg breakfast, this place has never failed me. Clean :5 star Delicious food :5 star Friendly staff : 5 star Relaxing friendly atmosphere : 5 star

    Very friendly staff and delicious food. If you’re here you should definitely try the sushi! The coffe and the cakes are also soo good! a perfect afternoon snack While eating you can watch the waves and enjoy the chill music. It’s such a great place, don’t miss it while being in weligama 🌞

  • 4/5 Jan 1 year ago on Google
    Burger/Lassi/Pancakes/Coffee were good. Smoothie Bowl is too warm and too liquid. Mahi (grilled) was burned. A bit hot in the morning with few fans. Service is good.

  • 5/5 Charles N. 4 months ago on Google
    Opens at 7am for all the early birds. The view is amazing, the food is really good and not expensive. Staff are super friendly and the music playlist is great too.

  • 3/5 Bec 10 months ago on Google
    First impressions last. The receptionist is the first impression. A smile and greeting wouldn’t hurt. This place is great for the view. The wifi didn’t work. No plugs in the cafe/restaurant. The music was good. The guy serving wasn’t very great at customer service. Never a smile. Never really looked at me until I started talking. So it just looked like he wasn’t ready to take my order. Someone is the staff had a body odour smell. The beef burger was average. Nothing to write home about. Though inexpensive. I enjoyed it but it wasn’t the best burger I’ve ever had or any reason to come back. It was simple. The Mexican fries was okay. The fries were good but the sour cream should really go on the side. It just melted into my chips making them soggy. There was no seasoning and to be honest, using the communal “dip your hands into the salt and pepper” made me feel a bit sick. It’s not very hygienic. I would suggest for this place to watch its hygiene with the salt and employees and perhaps train employees to be friendly and personalable. Makes the experience better overall.

  • 5/5 Lee Y. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is amazing! One of the best western food restaurants in Weligama. I tried the smash burger, Shakshuka, porridge, eggs & toast, pancakes, chickpea salad and it all were delicious. Fries are crazy good. The coffee is also one of the best in town. And the prices are good, cheap for western food in Weligama. Service is top notch!

  • 5/5 Benjamin H. 10 months ago on Google
    I’ve come here for some time now (working online and spend hours here eating and drinking coffee) and I love the place. Food is great. Portions big. All the burgers are delicious, my favourite is the chicken one and the smashed beef burger! It’s also nice that they have a co working area one floor down. Nice to work, eat and have your coffee with an ocean view 😎🤙🏼

  • 5/5 Roshni S. 4 years ago on Google
    Would definitely recommend this place for the breathtaking beach view, cheap but delicious food, card acceptance and last but not the least desserts! They offer non local food including burgers, all sorts of vegan food, pastas and whole steaks with a touch of sri lanka in it like the sambhol. Smoothies and salad bowls are also an absolute delight on a sunny afternoon, they are open all through the day and close at night 10

  • 5/5 Ivan I. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The best place in Weligama. At the same time with adequate prices. Even the Russian institutions of Soul, GoodStory and Aloha lose much both in price and in cuisine. In general, a must visit. Gourmets recommend trying dishes from the chef, especially tuna. (Original) Лучшее место в Велигаме. При этом с адекватными ценами. Даже русские заведения Соул, ГудСтори и Алоха сильно проигрывают и по цене и по кухне. В общем обязательно к посещению. Гурманам рекомендую попробовать блюда от шефа, особенно тунца.
