Lure of the Delicious, Flavorsome Jar Cakes from the Coffee Stop of the Cinnamon Grand

Reviewed Sep 18, 2022
The need for a quick snack has always been a need of mine and the Cinnamon Grand has been the first and most ideal choice when it’s time for delicious, hygienic food of great taste!
The Coffee Stop located in the front foyer of the Cinnamon Grand offers a wide range of ready – to – go options with a designer menu designed with short and sweet answers to hunger has been a favorite venue either for partaking whilst sitting down in the salubrious confines of its lounge in cozy comfortable chairs or for enjoyment at home cum office via Flavours, the efficient delivery arm of the Cinnamon Grand.
I was very keen to find out the selection available at the Coffee Stop and when stepping in I had the coincidence and good fortune of meeting Mr. Namal Jayalath, the Assistant Food & Beverages Manager of the Cinnamon Grand, who on duty that afternoon amidst his supervisory rounds in the hotel. He had the time for me and on request on what was available as take away, kindly introduced me to the delicious range of Jar Cakes available at the Coffee Stop in a variety of delicious flavors. With eager anticipation, I approached this food court showcase and was pleased to see a fine assortment of attractive Jar Cakes. These cakes were sitting inside translucent glass bottles in a myriad twists and attractive rainbow colors that had neatly sealed lids.
I was drawn to them and bought my share and enjoyed this delicacy with folks at home for the next couple of days and refrigeration was no hassle as the lovely, bottled presentation provides for convenient and easy cold storage.
Ever since then I have regularly enjoyed the Jar Cakes of the Cinnamon Grand and am grateful to Mr. Namal Jayalath and the Cinnamon Grand team for concoction of this unique delicacy made available at an affordable price.

I have honestly never experienced such a warming and honest service provided by the staff of Lagoons especially recommending Mr. LOLITHA, who is such a kind, humble and serving staff of the Lagoon Restaurant.

Highly Recommended for Seafood Lovers and New experience seekers.

Food spread was sumptuous and we enjoyed each and every kind. Hats off to the Executive Chef and his team for the excellent food spread.

We also enjoyed very much the cocktails and
tea prepared and served by Anuradha. You indeed did a great job Anuradha! Also Keerthi and Wasantha were very hospitable. We enjoyed the ambiance, food and great hospitality to the maximum. Looking forward to come again.

Been coming to the Cheers pub for quite a significant time. Every time we are here we have also loved the atmosphere and most importantly the service and the customer first attitude. The positive and the go getter attitude of the team at cheers pub is second to none. Suranga from the team has been exceptional and always been the the person we go to for service at most times. His positive attitude and the ability to make great conversations is admirable and very welcoming. Love cheers and always a fan of the service. Food is top notch, the roasted chicken and the Jamaica jerk chicken is awesome! Be sure to have a good time with your friends when you visit!!!!

Lagoon has always been a restaurant with exceptional food and incredible service. When we come by for lunch or dinner, we are always greeted with the most friendly staff, who are always attentive towards us. In particular we need to mention Damith, who made us feel comfortable and attentive to our every need.

All in all we must say that while it wasn’t a surprise as to how exceptional the service was, it’s always nice to get more than you expected.
