The Bavarian Restaurant and Pub is an German establishment in Colombo - Sri Lanka- from 1983. Is a typical German Pub, with  tables and chairs in plain wood, cold and discrete lights, and a fantastic menu .

The burgers are also huge: between two buns you'll have a double beef burger, a fried egg, onion ring, tomato, lettuce, cheese and fried potato aside. The ambiance is clean and very comfortable and the service is fast. The quality of the food match the amount that you pay: a dinner for two is around LKR 4000/-,  but is worthy.
