"The Grand Upstairs is truly a must-visit cafe! We went there randomly as it looked cozy from the outside, and it was raining heavily, but the experience turned out to be amazing. We ordered a veg pizza, and although it took a little longer than usual (maybe due to the rain), the staff surprised us with a complimentary cake on the house, which was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture. The pizza was absolutely delicious, and the cake was equally amazing. The ambience is warm, the vibes are great, and the staff are very helpful and polite. Highly recommended, a place you shouldn’t miss!"

"Splendid experience !! I recently visited The Grand Upstairs Café at Fort Kochi once again. With a victorian charm interiors café has a calm but surprising interiors, soft lighting, and a relaxed upstairs setting that makes it perfect for unwinding after exploring the old streets nearby. The staff were genuinely warm and attentive without being overbearing. They took time to recommend dishes and made sure we were comfortable throughout. I tried their pasta and pizza, both of which were fresh, flavorful, and nicely portioned. The ingredients tasted authentic and well-balanced, not too heavy or oily. The fresh juice was another highlight — refreshing and perfectly chilled. What I loved most was the peaceful ambience — you can sit back, enjoy your food, and just soak in the Fort Kochi charm. It’s not overly fancy, but it has that quiet character that makes it memorable. If you’re looking for a cozy café with good continental food, friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere, The Grand Upstairs Café is definitely worth a visit."
