The Gallery Cafe

The Gallery Cafe, a Paradise Road business, is one of the best restaurants in Sri Lanka, with an extravagant environment with excellent outside seating. Its menu includes a wide range of cuisines such as Indian, Italian, and Sri Lankan meals to please every appetite. This cafe's USP is its sweets, which come in 30 varieties and have an unparalleled flavor across Sri Lanka.

Paradis Road Galleries - The Gallery Cafe opened in 1998 in the former offices of the late Geoffrey Bawa, a world-renowned Sri Lanka architect. Bawa approved of Fernando taking over his preferred property and converting it into a restaurant and art gallery and repeated Shanth's design sense in the conversion and renovation of the building to complete his own. The location of the main pavilion, where most dinners are seated, was Bawa's only input.

The art gallery offers the sale of work by established and up-and-coming local artists on a regular basis. Visitors come to the property for meals, site seeing, coffee, cake, shopping, and free wifi available for patrons daily because the restaurant is open from 10 A.M. to midnight daily. The menu at the Gallery Cafe has not changed in years, as regulars have their favorites, and Fernando takes pride in the fact that they can always return for that option, it is especially known for its cocktails and desserts, as well as for providing constantly 'good food'.
