The Buddah Cafe - Varkala

Visited here for brunch and dinner. Very close to the beach access point. During brunch Chicken wasn’t available so I ordered a fish. The service was very good as both the waiter who interacted with us were very friendly and went to and fro a number of times to check on availability of Buddha Bowls, chicken steak, both of which weren’t available during brunch. My vegetarian wife had a vegetarian sizzler. My fish wasn’t hot and the taste was alright. We ordered the food without rice or fries. Later during the dinner, we again went here since it we walked a lot on the beach and this was closer compared to other famous restaurants. They had live music. We had sort of a candle light dinner. Wife ordered a Veg Thukpa and me a chicken steak and pineapple juice. Wife got a chicken thukpa instead of veg so we returned it and got it exchanged at no worry. I too had asked no mashed potatoes but still got it. The place was full so the chef must have been under pressure. We still liked the ambiance and loved the food. The order time though took a while. During brunch we waited an hour and during dinner as well. A little more maybe due to the wrong order.

A nice located Restaurant near the Helipad in Varkala Beach. A cool and catchy name and a great entertainer who invited us in. We ordered several dishes (specially fish) and everything was brought to our table in an appropriate time and served with a smile. The view from the top was very enjoying. The food was delicious, the price totally fine (specially for us from Germany because of the currency exchange) and the ambience beautiful. At the weekends you have Live music. A must try dessert: Hello to the Queen!! We will come back the next time and invite everyone to try. If you approach with a good heart, good things come always back!!

Only the atmosphere was good. Food were too mid, not worth their prices at all. They reel in customers who comes from beach to the cliff with flyers saying that there's a party which there won't be. The service was poor with staffs being rude and taking forever to bring in the orders.

Been here for beer, got disappointed. But for breakfast, it was good. Was only option available at 8 am functioning fully. Good variety of food options available at affordable prices and prompt service. Has a small bakery for sweet tooth people.

Nice atmosphere and food was really good. Consider yourself lucky if a boy named Nabin waits your table, he was so warm. We tried calamari and pizza, we never regret ordering it.
