I have visited The Shack a few times now and enjoy both the ambience and food at the place. We loved the burgers and the wedges a lot. The food... read more is most of the time ??. We ordered some spicy ginger drinks on the first...More

  A very cool place directly at the water. Like DIRECTLY. And the food - I had the shack platter - is absolutely outstanding. Reasonable priced, friendly staff. Go there

  Our son went surfing an we enjoyed an unbelievable good breakfast. Best cappuccino we had in Sri Lanka. Definitely check this place out!

  I so loved The Shack, that I had to go back after a little trip to Hiriketiya! I ended up staying in all three accommodations which were very clean and... read more tidy. The Love Shack was probably my favourite and I'll definitely be taking my son with me there next year, but the Beach Shack was also great. What I loved was being able to walk out directly onto the beach, and although the Love Shack had a kitchenette I always ended up eating in the restaurant because it was all so delicious and decently priced! Great smoothies, juices and coffees, brilliant breakfasts...in fact I would recommend every single thing on the menu, which is also kid-friendly. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, and being a solo traveller on this occasion there was always someone interesting around to talk to. Thursday nights are a must with fabulous live music, and in general the location was amazing, set on a stunning beach, perfect for trips to Galle or Unawatuna. The only thing I regret was not learning to surf!

  Being in Galle for 3 months the shack soon became my second home.
Great western food with a Sri Lankan touch, nice, helpful staff, decent prices and a beautiful... read more atmosphere!
The view made my burgers taste even better. (Not that they'd need it ;D)
Try the Bloody Mary with your breakfast and the Shack Mule with your dinner.

  Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy our lunch here. Food was overpriced and very small portions. The property seemed ran down and untidy. Probably wouldn’t visit again if in the area.... read more

  You know when you find a little oasis ? Well this place is just that, cool, friendly and in an amazing setting with just the best beginners wave I think... read more I have even seen.

The service is slow at times but really well meaning. This is an ex pats bar which I normally avoid but they seem to have got it just right.

If you find yourself in Galle, this is a must

  If you happen to be in this area, I would recommend you warmly to go to visit the Shack Cafe. Specially, if you have kids, or if you like to... read more hang out on the beach. The food is great, with a creative menu.
Check it out.

  Fish & Chips delicious. At the same time you can surfing, swimming or see the sunset with your beer. Fantastic

  Such a beautiful welcome, the food is absolutely exquisite, the staff are top class and always welcoming Highly recommended
