Barefoot is a shop selling beautiful linen, clothes, bags, handicrafts, with a rather overpriced cafe (but nice cakes) set in a lovely courtyard with a gallery. It's a fantastic escape from the horrible Galle Road.
706 Galle Road, Colombo 3, Sri Lanka; tel +94 11 2580114; www.barefoot.lk; nearest station Bambalapitiya
