The largest and much-loved cafe chain in Sri Lanka, Barista, recently launched its dedicated coffee app, digitally crafted by Arimac Lanka, in order to allow customers easy access to their favourite Barista goodies.

Speaking on the launch of the app, Barista General Manager Dilupa Pathirana noted, “It’s all about convenience and safety these days, and especially with the lockdowns and travel restrictions happening without much notice, we felt it was the perfect time to introduce an app that all our customers can easily use to get Barista goodies delivered to their home or office. The app is easy to download, set up is a breeze and you have yourself ordering within minutes.”

The app is available for free download from both the Apple Store and Google Play Store. Once downloaded, it takes just a few seconds to sign up and get you ordering. Barista’s delivery menu is clearly demarcated as food and beverages, from which you can pick your favourite hot or cold coffees, cold brews, and savouries or sweets to go with it. The highlight of the menu however is the ‘Daily Great Savers’ where customers will find exciting deals and combos at unbelievable prices with in app notifications keeping customers informed of these daily promotions.

Delivery is carried out by Barista’s own delivery team who adhere strictly to all health and safety guidelines. The app also allows multiple payment methods like cash on delivery, card on delivery or an in-app card payment for greater convenience.

One of the key highlights of the app is the ability to select a later date and/or time for delivery, allowing users to set up deliveries for special dates in advance. This way you are well ahead of sending loved ones scrumptious goodies like Barista’s signature cakes on their special days.
