Great concept . I like the ambiance, the old world charm and non modern touches. Looks vintage and thats great ..... the food is good , not too cheap but one does not go to cricket club to get a cheap burger. it is simply not a way side drop inn. My type of restaurant.

I have been to CC a couple times with both family and friends. The atmosphere is perfect for either a fun dinner with your friends or just a nice evening with your family. You don't even have to be a cricket fan to enjoy the place. The burgers are probably the best we've tried in Sri Lanka, and to be... More

We just had drinks here - if you know anything about cricket, you'll be impressive by the memoribilia. Otherwise, go if you like historic pubs and a feeling of old Columbo.

I had a salad, burger with corona beer with a friend who came down to Sri Lanka very recently and it was lovely. The only issue is parking during the peak times.

This cafe come cricket memorabilia pub is a must for fans of the sport. It's packed with as much cricket related memorabilia as will fit on the walls and ceiling. The place will be of particular interest for people who grew up with cricket in the late 80s and early 90s since this is when a lot of the memorabilia... More

This pub at 34 queen's road in Koltupiyya is a must visit place for cricket lovers. It has numerous new and old cricket memorabilia and on top of that the food is also great. We tried the Australian grilled lamb wrap and Donal's deluxe burger. I can guess it is good place to watch events as well. The place is... More

I doubt if I would go when there was a test match on anywhere in the world as it would not be quiet, the place is full of memorabilia & a big TV. We went at a quiet time & enjoyed a change from local food. Great shepherds pie! Good service with good, basic food.
