Roots

Roots, located at the popular ODEL on Alexandra Place in Colombo, offers a unique blend of pub and dessert bar. Known for its outdoor seating arrangement, it is a convenient spot for those looking to unwind after a shopping spree. The restaurant accepts credit cards, making it a hassle-free choice for both locals and tourists. Operating daily from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, it caters to early risers and evening visitors alike.

With a focus on fresh fruit juices and dessert options, Roots seems to have mixed reviews. Visitors have appreciated the freshness of the juices while acknowledging that some taste combinations may not cater to everyone's palate, such as drinks mixed with coconut water. Despite this, traditional offerings like Sri Lankan faluda have been positively received, even if other dessert items lacked flavor originality according to some reviews. While the bustling ambiance inside ODEL's cafeteria may not appeal to everyone, the Nutella milkshake has garnered its own dedicated fan base.

Notably, access to more recent feedback from patrons is limited, with the last known review dating back seven years. This suggests possible changes not reflected in the available information. Patrons looking for an updated experience may need to visit in person to form an opinion on current offerings and service quality.
