Their service is pretty good, the name have the reputation, supplier dresses could be little bit of neatness. They were using handwash bottle by putting a whole in a water bottle. 😂 👌🏻.

One of the prominent landmarks of Thampanoor-Thiruvananthapuram,where both central Railway station & Central Bus station are located,is the Indian coffeehouse designed by Laurie Baker.This Building,courtesy is pretty unusual has become one of the landmarks of Tvm.The entire building is conceived as a continuos spiral ramp,with a central circular service core and with dining spaces provided on the outerside.Bakers trademark jaalis to let light in and ventilation.

Irresponsible idiotsThey serve egg shell along with chicken biriyaniAmid covid crisis this is the level of hygiene we can expect there.Reported to the management and their response was insensitive.They dont really care abt the customers health now days.It used to be a reputed restaurant back then!.If you are concerned abt covid spreading and hygiene, better to avoid dining here.And biriyani wasnt good, Unpleasant

Good infrastructure, good food, i didnt think that they would have non veg... But yesterday only i came to know that they provide non veg food as well... And the food and service was really good... All the issue i had was with parking...I came to collect one of my friends from the bus station... And i was not able to keep my bike closeby... That was the only issue...

One of the most splendid and iconic restaurant I have ever been to. The whole hotel is in the form of a lighthouse! Thats right! Tables across the elevated building. Its a spiral path that leads you to the top, and across the spiral path are all the tables.The best part about this is, we had 20mins gap to go to airport from railway station, and when requested, the staff got us all the items we ordered in just 5mins. We were literally so thankful for them. Customer service at its best. If the guys at the restaurant is reading this, Kudos to you, love from Bengaluru. Thanks. Keep up the amazing work.The food was so tasty. Paratha is highly recommended.#BakasuraForever

Review №28

This space was designed by Laurie Baker know for his usage of brick in his buildings. This coffee house has a nice space along the spiral ramps with segregated dining space at every level. I visited to have a nice coffee and experience the building but, the coffee disappointed me. Food wasnt that great, but can land here if you have no other choice.

Review №29

Located at a stones throw from the Trivandrum station, this cafe is easy to spot since it has a unique structure and a dark brown exterior. I typically loved the way its build wherein the tables are positioned adjacent to the outer walls and the path inside is spiralled all the way till the top like a lighthouse. The menu is limited though, but it covers most of the items from snacks till main course. The food is really tasty and the prices are really light on the wallet. One can expect to get a nice satisfying meal over here. My recommendations are to try the Chicken biryani, Medu vada and the dosas from here. Plus the service is quick and the waiters are really friendly( All the people who serve here have a typical outfit ). I had visited this place with my family and had a really great time.P.S - Its really old, had started in 1990.

This indian coffee house got an interesting architecture.The building is designed by the famous architect Laurie Baker. Kind of a spiral ramp structure. Very near to the KSRTC Bus station. The food is average.

Review №31

Decent food, nothing special so far. Rates are damn cheap, service is good and menu is pretty standard. You cant cross 200 in bill per person. Parotas didnt impress me one bit, amd egg roast was just boiled egg in onion gravy. Cutlets and biryani are the usual sought after items here.

Good service..Had 2 plates of Masala Dosa with uzhunnu vada, Ginger Lime & Mint LimeMasala Dosa with Uzhunnu vada were good.But the Mint Lime was very sugary and its not mixed with cold water. so it tasted poor and had only just a sip and its waste of money.Even the Ginger lime was also but sugary but was cold and much better than Mint Lime.

Good hygience and service but poor quantity. I ordered a chicken fry for 115 rs and I got only 2 piece chicken. Normally any restaurant will serve 3-4 pieces minimum for this rate.

#Architectural Eye-catching Building#Located in the heart of thambanoor#Have a good number of consumers, since it is the most trusted hotels nearby Thambanoor Railway station#Sloping levels as of a bike can be ride upto the top floor, irrespective of steps.#possibility to slip is more#seatting arrangement is also peculiar#adds to the landmark of Thriuvanathapuram

Strictly average. Not that great food and cleanliness needs to be taken care. Heavy crowd doest mean it serves the best food in town. The brand name attracts and there is nothing special to offer other than any average restaurants.

Review №80

Go if only for the experience of walking up a spiral ramp that winds all the way up to the top of a round building past tables with the best people watching perches around. All I can say is that their waiters must have very strong legs. I had coffee and a sweet, which were both cheap and tasty.

My bill was Rs 80/- and I gave a 500 rupee note. The staff at the counter shouted do you have change? . Yes, I have - I replied politely and gave them a 100 rupee note, which was the only note of lesser denomination in my pocket. I have just one thing to say: they are ruining the brand.
