Great food and coffee. The staff was super nice and the atmosphere was great. They have wifi and a place to charge your phone or laptop. Also comfortable seating. Would definitely come back!
Enjoyed a double espresso and a good healthy breakfast here. It’s a very relaxed vibe and a good place to spend some time reading or writing. There is wifi but it seems quite slow. So sit down and enjoy nice coffee and good food.
I’ll be coming back every morning I’m in Kandy
Coolest little spot in Kandy, awesome work guys!! Amazing coffee too 5️⃣⭐️💛
Lovely cafe to take a breather from the busy streets! The food is fantastic (great portions, on the higher end price-wise, but justifiably), and the staff is super nice, very welcoming.
Their wifi isn’t the best (had to work a bit and used my hotspot) but if you’re just visiting it’s a great place to come and chill for a bit!
What a fantastic place! Excellent service and they have wifi!!! :D
Super hipster and healthy, wholesome vibes. Lots of fresh juices, energy balls, healthy ingredients on toast/pancakes, smoothie bowls, nourishing lunch selections and then yummy Sri lankan inspired salads.... I really didn't know what to choose!
