Review Boatman's Cafe - Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum)

It’s so common that most of the places in Kerala will be closed early in the night and Places in Varkala is not an exception. It was around 9pm when we were searching for any happening places to have our dinner in the varkala cliff but we couldn’t find ‘happening spot’ but we found Boatman cafe with some active crowd by that time and also the menu had decent amount of varieties with average cost in tourist spots. It’s a worth place to dine in with the beach view

Personally my favorite restaurant / cafe in varkala cliff. Located in black beach, a bit away from the main helipad and crowded area.Boatman's undoubtedly has the best view of the cliff. Kind of resembles cafes in Cangu and Semniyak in Bali. Staffs and owners were very friendly. Specially waiter Amit Singh. Food was good and price was reasonable. Way cheaper and tastier than many of those crowded cafes in the cliff including coffee temple. Not sure why this place doesn't have good ratings on google. The view from the restaurant during sunset is beyond wow. Just make sure that you are in a relaxed mood and not in a hurry when you visit this place. This is not a fast food joint. So they take sometime to prepare the food. Do check it out when you are in Varkala

Very nice and friendly staff. Good food and pretty fast service. Good prices. Local food and sea food awesome! Could be one of the best places in Varkala. Cold b**r.

Fantastic restaurant with great views, good quality food and friendly service (and good wifi!) I would highly recommend it! We came here several times while in Varkala.

Everything perfect. The food is delicious, the views are unbeatable and the staff of the friendliest I found in India. Totally recommended.

This cafe is an awesome place for dinner with a great ambience. Food is also very good.

Good beer and hukka. Slow service by worth the view.

The food was excellent and the view to die for. Friendly staff.

Приятное место и вид отличный
