Why Headquarters by W15 Stands Out in Colombo

Founded under the W15 Collection by Hardy Jamaldeen, Headquarters by W15 was built on a clear idea:

Bring Colombo’s street culture to a refined rooftop setting.

Inspired by Pettah’s chaotic charm and Galle Face’s coastal rhythm, the space blends:

  • Urban Colombo energy
  • Contemporary design
  • A deeply local culinary identity

We wanted a space that feels both local and global,” Jamaldeen shares.

That vision has since earned global recognition including praise from Condé Nast Traveller.

🍽 Plates That Carry the Streets Upward

At Headquarters by W15, the menu doesn’t imitate street food.
It reinterprets it boldly.

Signature highlights include:

  • 🍤 Prawn Yellow-Curry – LKR 2,550
  • 🥘 Kottu with Smoked Prawns with Chilli & Garlic Butter – LKR 2,000
  • 🍛 Dum Biryani – LKR 2,950 chicken / LKR 3,450 mutton
  • 🫓 Ferouza’s Mutton Curry – LKR 4,400

Each dish carries familiarity but lands with precision.

🍸 Cocktails That Tell Their Own Story

At Headquarters by W15, the cocktail program is just as central as the food.

Behind the bar, the experience continues.

Signature cocktails reflect both craft and locality:

  • Butterfly Effect — gin, lavender, citrus, mint oil
  • Colonial Arrack — jaggery meets Sri Lanka’s iconic spirit
  • Hard Day’s Work — a refined whiskey sour with depth

Every glass complements the menu, not competes with it.
