I was there with my family in May 2013. it is about 60km from colombo city limits. A good place to take a break on your way to upcountry. Breakfast was delicious and there were many variations to choose from. Had lunch at the same place two days after and I would say that it was bit spicy and hot... More

Great place to stop over in the Colombo - Kandy road for a cup of tea. Although the food was just mediocre the location is so great. Its by a small creek where you can even go to the edge of it. Not much of a crowd comes there as there is a competitor just couple of blocks away where... More

Stopped by on our way from Kandy. Being my first time to this place, I was quite please to have this wonderful place next to a busy road, tastefully decorated (I thought its traditional but quirky) and loved the setting. It was dark so I couldn't take a glimpse of the stream running next to it (behind). Food was tasty.... More

Last weekend, on the way to Kandy we went to the place to get breakfast. As soon as I saw the place the first thing came in to my mind was "Wow what a place". I was thrilled with architecture of the building, and it's location. A simple but a unique building situated near a small stream is ideal for... More

You can taste a real Sri Lankan home made meal at Wahalkada. Apart from that they have an a la carte menu which is also great. You should not miss their hoppers. Rest room facilities could be improved.

Clean and good food We stopped at Wahalkada for breakfast on our way from Kandy to Colombo. The buffet breakfast was reasonable at 390 rupees and included an extensive range of srilankan food. The food tasted good. Most of all the restaurant was very clean apart from the occasional flies and the service was very good. The toilets are also... More
