Slolabs by Cafficana



About
A premium, design-forward specialty-coffee cafe on PT Usha Road by the Cafficana brand, celebrated for its slow-pour coffee, exceptional croissants and pastries, and a striking industrial-retro interior.
A Design-Forward Specialty Coffee Cafe
Slolabs by Cafficana is one of Calicut's most talked-about cafes — a premium, thoughtfully designed space on PT Usha Road in Vellayil, created by the specialty coffee brand Cafficana. The interior blends industrial chic with retro warmth: wood-panelled shelves lined with vintage boomboxes and old-school cameras, and a dedicated Slow Pour bar for coffee lovers.
What to Order
Coffee is the heart of it, from meticulous slow-pour brews to a matcha latte and a spiced white chocolate cappuccino. The kitchen is equally acclaimed: flaky, buttery croissants (the slow-cooked beef croissant is a favourite), tres leches, Chicken Kanthari quiche, mushroom meatball frittata with focaccia, banoffee french toast, and brunch plates like granola bowls and poached eggs with avocado — all beautifully presented.
The Experience
Calm, stylish and curated, it's a place people describe as an experience rather than just a cafe — ideal for a relaxed coffee, brunch or a stylish hangout. Basement parking adds convenience, and the service is warm and attentive.
