Beautiful view of the Sigiriya rock fortress from the cafe. We enjoyed the avocado toast and iced tea, a real treat after a long climb up! Very peaceful and tranquil way to spend the morning. They serve full menu from about 9am onwards. Card payment accepted, and bathroom are clean.
Recently, a few of us stopped by Soul Food, a vegetarian restaurant, to grab a meal before a long drive. There were six of us, and they had no problem setting up a large table for us. The menu was pretty extensive. I ordered a Sweet Potato Burger and an Avocado Toast with Egg, plus an Iced Cappuccino and Mango Juice. Overall, the food was really good, but there were a couple of things that could be improved. The wait time was pretty long—probably because we were a group of six, and they wanted to bring everything out at the same time. That’s exactly what happened—they served each dish one by one, and in total, it took about 30-40 minutes to get all the food. It wasn’t a huge issue since we weren’t in a rush, but it would’ve been nice if they had given us a heads-up. The second thing I’d suggest as an improvement is adding fans. We sat outside, and it was really hot. I’ve been to plenty of cafes where they have ceiling fans or stand-alone fans, and it makes a huge difference. Without them, it felt stuffy, and we kept wishing for a bit of a breeze. Overall, great food, but a couple of small changes could make the experience even better!
Really nice restaurant with an incredible view of the Preaching Rock/Sigiriya. The staff were very friendly and the atmosphere super relaxed – a typical chill spot. The food was great, we had the avocado wrap, which was tasty, though we expected it to be cold – with the heat, it felt a bit heavy. The bowl was very good and the portion was just right. The juices were also really nice. Overall, a great place to visit!

The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing meal with friends or family. The service at Soul Food Sigiriya was exceptional. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in.
A Soulful Experience at Soul Food, Sigiriya! Had an unforgettable lunch at Soul Food in Sigiriya! The view from their backyard is absolutely breathtaking—with the majestic Sigiriya Lion Rock right in front of you, it’s a feast for both the eyes and the soul. Tried the Coco Smoothie Bowl—refreshing, rich, and the perfect tropical treat. The Jackfruit Burger was surprisingly juicy and packed with flavor, and the Sweet Potato Chips? Absolute perfection—crispy, lightly salted, and addictive. The ambiance is peaceful, earthy, and welcoming—a true heaven for vegetarians and anyone looking for clean, soulful food. Highly recommended if you're in Sigiriya and want to nourish your body and spirit!?❤️?
