Black Cat

4.4(950 reviews)

About

When in Sri Lanka, Black Cat is the local business that operates as a café at 11 Wijerama Mawatha, Colombo 00700, Sri Lanka. The venue sits within Colombo, the island's commercial capital, and serves as a daytime and evening stop for coffee and café fare. Its address places it on Wijerama Mawatha, a street in the Colombo 00700 postal area.

Visitors rate Black Cat at 4.4 out of 5, a figure drawn from 949 reviews, which places it among the more reviewed cafés in Colombo. That volume of feedback reflects steady foot traffic from both locals and travellers moving through the capital. The café opens every day from 08:00 to 21:00, giving a long window for morning coffee, lunch or an evening meal. Colombo itself is the main urban hub on the island and the starting point for most journeys.

Five photos are available for anyone wanting a preview of the café before arriving. The website at https://www.facebook.com/blackcatcolombo carries further updates. Opening hours run seven days a week, from 08:00 to 21:00.

Reaching Black Cat from the island's main resorts and towns is straightforward, since Colombo anchors the road and rail network that links Galle, Kandy, Negombo, Bentota, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay. Sri Lanka's tropical climate means the southwest coast stays driest roughly December-March, while the east coast is best roughly May-September, so a Colombo café stop fits either half of a trip. Island menus lean on heat and spice, with rice and curry, seafood pulled fresh from surrounding waters, and tropical fruit shaping most plates. Sinhala and Tamil are the main languages, and English is widely used, which makes ordering and directions simple for most visitors.
