New Folly — Beach Bar & Restaurant in Arugam Bay
Beach bar & kitchen by the sea.
Our Place
A small place on a long beach.
New Folly was built for surfers chasing a dawn point break, travellers looking for a quiet table under the palms, and the kind of guest who promises to leave on Tuesday and is somehow still here on Sunday.
It's a beach bar and kitchen — run by people who actually live here, with the sea about thirty unhurried steps from the front door.
Food & Drink
Cooked slow. Poured cold.
From the Bar
Coconut arrack cocktails, cold beer that stays cold, and fresh juice from fruit that was on a tree before lunch.
- Coconut arrack sour
- Ice-cold Lion lager
- King coconut
- Fresh papaya juice
Postcards from the Bay
Slow down. Stay awhile.
A few moments from a season at New Folly — surf at sunrise, sunsets on the deck, lanterns over a fire that never quite goes out.
