I recently visited Avantika Pastry Shop in Karol Bagh, and it turned out to be one of the worst bakery experiences I’ve had. The combination of stale food, and rude behavior from the owner and staff made it thoroughly unpleasant.
Stale Chocolate Tart The chocolate tart I ordered was completely stale. • The tart had a hard, chewy base that seemed old, and the chocolate filling tasted off, as though it had been sitting out for days. • When I brought it to the staff’s attention, they rudely dismissed my concern, claiming, “This is how it’s supposed to be.” Their tone was both condescending and rude. Although they offered me an exchange with pastry, but it was equally bad…
Rude Owner and Staff The unprofessional and rude attitude of the staff and owner was the most disappointing aspect of my visit. The owner, who manages the cash counter, displayed an alarming lack of courtesy. Instead of handing over change politely, he banged it on the desk, a gesture that felt dismissive and disrespectful. His overall demeanor, including his unwelcoming body language, made the experience even worse.
It was evident that he lacked the basic interpersonal skills necessary for customer service. Speaking with politeness or even a modicum of respect seemed beyond him. His attitude gave the impression that he considered himself above the customers, as if interacting with them was a burden rather than a responsibility.
Overpriced and Overhyped
The shop’s prices are on par with high-quality bakeries, but the products and service are far below standard. Paying a premium price for stale food and rude treatment is unacceptable.
Conclusion: Avantika Pastry Shop in Karol Bagh is not worth the hype or the money. Their stale chocolate tart, rude behavior, make it a place to avoid. There are much better options in the area that prioritize fresh food, and customer respect.

Read moreI bought a Choco Marble Cake for a special occasion, my anniversary. However, when we opened the cake in the evening, we were shocked to find a sour smell coming from it, and the taste was also quite different from what we expected.
As it was already late (around 12 AM), I couldn’t contact the shop immediately. The next morning, I returned to your store to address the issue, but the staff refused to acknowledge the problem. They insisted that the cake smelled and tasted as it should, claiming that the ingredients and flavors naturally have that odor.
Given that your bakery is reputed and operates at a higher price point, I was extremely disappointed by the quality of the product. A simple cake for 600 INR should meet basic expectations of freshness and taste. Sadly, this was not the...
