The café

A small café with a long, easy day.

Cafe Kochi sits in the heart of old Fort Kochi's heritage quarter, on the corner of Princess Street and Peter Celli Street. It's the kind of place where mornings start with strong filter coffee, afternoons stretch over lunch, and the last tables fill up for a quiet espresso or frappe before close.

The menu travels from Kerala kitchens — appam and egg curry, puttu and kadala — to café classics like pasta, burgers and fresh salads, finishing with homemade cakes that are made in-house.

  • Filter coffee, espresso & frappes
  • Appam, puttu & Kerala curries
  • Pasta, burgers & salads
  • Homemade cakes

What people come for

Three reasons to turn off Princess Street.

A short menu done well is better than a long one done twice. These are the things regulars order again and again.

Coffee, done properly

Black tea and coffee in the traditional style, plus espresso machine drinks — cappuccinos, lattes and frappes for when it's warm outside (most days).

Kerala home-style plates

Appam with egg curry. Puttu with kadala curry. Dosa. The slow-cooked, everyday comfort food of Kerala homes — served in a café setting.
