One of the best coffee shops in Colombo with the best creamy chilli prawn pasta. The spot feels like home, calm and ideal to sit down and get some work done or catch up with friends over a game of Jenga (which is available at the café). The inviting atmosphere and delicious food keep me coming back. The staffs are incredibly friendly, always welcoming feedbacks
Their chili prawn pasta is a standout dish. The pasta is cooked al dente, and the balance of spice and creaminess creates a perfect bowl. Although I recently noticed a slight dip in the quality, after sharing my feedback, they made sure the next time I ordered, the dish met its original standard.
The chicken cordon bleu is another star on the menu. The chicken is cooked to perfection, with a crispy crumb coating and a cheesy sauce that’s simply delightful. Served with fries and veggies, it makes for a well-rounded meal.
The crispy chicken waffle and chicken burger, both are equally impressive. The cheese sauce has just the right kick and adds to the overall flavor.
The chicken and cheese toast makes a quick delicious snack. a very different toast compared to the ordinary cheese toasts we have.
Their mojitos are refreshing, and the coffee is excellent, really good quality coffee served
Prices are slightly higher than other coffee shops, given the calm atmosphere, the food and the service definitely worth revisiting.

Read moreThe Coffee Manor is an off the radar quiet coffee spot in Colombo 7 right in front of the DS school. It’s appearance may seem like a small location but it is quite big when u enter. And the ambiance is very welcoming and modern.
They did take steps for Covid 19 protection prior to entering the premises with temp checks, sanitizing of hands and even a hand wash before entering the location.
We visited the place mid morning and it was empty and quiet so we were able to find a perfect spot right with the view of the TV to enjoy a bit of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics as well. People started to trickle in towards lunch time though.
For food we ordered smoked salmon, avocado and eggs on toast which was filling and good and the peanut butter and cream waffle was good but I wouldn’t get it unless u really love peanut butter.
For drinks we tried a vanilla and chocolate latte both of which were surprisingly good and better than most places we have been to.
The place also has a private room for functions (up to 20 people) at a rate of LKR 1500 per hour at the time we visited which is pretty decent, and also a separate meeting room space for about 6-8 people as well.
The service overall was good with a very friendly, supportive and courteous staff.
If anything we would recommend for improvement would be in the washrooms, that the air freshener of the washroom to be changed and hand wipes to be included. Other than that the washroom was clean and hygienic. No complaints.
In terms of parking also there is no issues as there is space for about 5-6 vehicles.
Overall a very good experience and we would...
Read moreWent in for some coffee and breakfast today to their Nawala branch. Got an Iced Americano (900.00 regular), and an American breakfast (1900.00) which had 2 small hash browns, scrambled eggs, 2 slices of chicken bacon, a bit of baked beans and 1 slice of toasted brown bread (1 slice cut in half). The scrambled eggs had a hair in it. So glad I saw it and dug it out and this happened within 60 seconds of me getting my food. When I told the staff, they were prompt, polite and apologetic and got me a fresh batch of eggs done. However, I found that I could not eat my eggs because I felt put off and was wondering about the cleanliness of the kitchen and the kitchen staff. I had the hash browns and bacon with bread. Those were ok. The baked beans were not warm at all but I ate it because frankly, I have a long day ahead and I cannot be complaining to staff all the time. The Iced Americano was ok nothing impressive - and I have had far better Americanos for about 750. The ambiance is ok - it’s not something that is inviting though, and they can improve. The only good thing here is the service and attitude of the staff at the counter. Team Coffee Manor, you guys need to educate your kitchen staff on hygiene and cooking practices and also on the right temperature for food, and seasoning perhaps. I’m disappointed. You guys charge too much, for such little. Not going back,...
