1. Ambadi

Head here for well-executed North Indian staples, such as kebabs and other tandoori dishes, butter chicken, and biryani, as well as Indo-Chinese options, Kerala specials, and Western dishes, including fish-and-chips and some pastas.

2. Azad

4. Coastal Kitchen
$$$$ | |Open all day, and with an open-air patio on the cliff, Coastal Kitchen may just be Varkala's best restaurant, serving all regional and Kerala specialties as well as vegetarian options like eggplant curry. Don’t miss the karuvepilai prawns, spicy and fried up with a lot of curry leaves, or the meen polichathu, fish fried in a wrapped banana leaf, or nadan meen charu, a local kind of fish curry; the desserts are good, too.

7. Teapot Café
$ | |This quirky two-story café, off Princess Street and near the harbor, has teapots and kettles decorating every available space, including some dangling from the ceiling; some tables are made from wooden tea chests. There’s a fair selection of both Indian and continental food—roast chicken and potatoes, prawn moilee (in a coconut curry), vegetable stew—but the café is best known for its sandwiches and freshly baked cakes and for being a terrific spot for sipping away on a cup of tea for an hour or more.

- Its Indie rarebit sandwich
- Great selection of freshly baked cakes
