Glowing testimonials for Cafe Lava
- This is a true oasis in Havelock! Amazing and delicious food! The chef was very open to customizing the dishes based on our taste and dietary requirements. Highly recommended this hidden gem of a restaurant. Come chill and hangout to some great vibes and wonderful service. – Prashant (US)
- Sparing the usual hyperbolic verbiage of reviews, “Pretty Cool” is the honest expression that appropriately comes to mind with regards to Cafe Lava. A first floor, open air, smallish affair— 16 covers anchored by a hexagonal American picnic table — Lava has more a reading room vibe. It is serviced by a single waiter and a lone chef whipping up goodies in a clean, modern kitchen on the ground floor. In the opinion of this internationally gallivanting gourmand, Lava handily competes with enjoyable eating establishments anywhere in the world. The menu is a jumble of cuisines given the diverse clientele the place caters to, and all the dishes from the humble upma to the succulent crab preparations are pleasant to the palate, to say the least. Lava is off the beaten path, tucked away on the campus of the renowned Gypsy Divers outfit. This is a definite must eat-at spot if you’re on glorious Swaraj Dweep whether your visit here is to enhance the flavor of your honeymoon or to spice up your 9-to-5 mainland life. Yes, Lava is Pretty Cool. – Rajesh Alfred (Canada)

The food at Lava Cafe is hands down the best food you can get in Havelock. Do try their Prawn Curry in Andaman/Indian style with Garlic rice. Their lobster in Indian style is also mouthwatering ! Shoutout to the 2 cooks and Balkrishna at Lava Cafe for making all that delicious food. I was in Havelock for a total of around 26 meals and I ate 23 at Lava Cafe. I just didn’t want to go out side. -Aryan (Ahmedabad)
