So after reading many good reviews, as well as some not so good, I decided to check the place out, even if only for an evening beer. Not long after I entered and ordered my beer, I witnessed a local man go going berserk on another local just outside. This man was out of control! I read a previous review... More

May be due to end of season in April but the cafe was dead even at 10pm. Didn't like the ambience as there were group of men roaming around the cafe may be looking for a different experience. If there was a good music going on then would certainly visit them again.

If you are a stop out,this place opens late for the younger folk who might like a dance and to party a good age cross section and you can buy drinks if you know what i mean,,Only certain hotels and establishments have a license to sell beer and spirits.

Friendly people, nice cocktails in happy hour. One of the places where something is going on at night. I didn't try the food.

I want to advised to anybody who would like to check out this place, not to visit it, even if is nearly the only place that sells alcohol in Varkala, it might look really good , the location amazing, the music, the decoration .. but dont be fooled , when staff is getting drunk, they will get very very violent....

One of the places for a late night drink in Varkala, and although it is unexceptional it does the job. However they are seriously let down by the fact that the price of some of the drinks is not on the menu, and the waiters do a less than adequate job of accurately recording the drinks you order. Although in... More

Noisy, slow service and average cocktails but really busy, even at the end of the season so it could be to your taste, just not to ours.

We were a group of 5 - all cousins (3 guys/2 girls) from different parts of the world (USA, Dubai, and France) visiting Varkala for the first time. We drawn by the energy of... More

True to my curiosity, this place turned out to be quiet a little food fiesta....ofcourse the views from the top are breathtaking as well. This place has also been recommended by Lonely planet. The food is great in taste but the... More
