Cricket Club Cafe
Cricket Club Cafe (34 Queen’s Road, Colombo) – this is a unique themed restaurant & bar was established in 1996 by a couple of expats from Australia. This bar, the first of its kind in Sri Lanka, is filled with cricket memorabilia including bats, balls, hats, gloves and shoes used by famous cricketing personalities dating as far back as the 1940’s (which include personal items used by Sir Don Bradman, Ray Lindwall, Shane Warne, Arjuna Ranatunga, Sunil Gavaskar, and Joel Garner, to name a few). The walls of the cafe are covered with framed original newspapers from the 1930’s, plus photos, posters and pages detailing cricketing mile-stones throughout the ages. In addition the cafe also screens non stop cricket classics and current sports activity via satellite for patrons.
