Sri Maruti Tiffin Center — Restaurant in Karnataka

This is one of the oldest restaurant in sringeri to have food items. They have shifted to new location which is 3 shops after old location and can easily be rectified due to the large name boards.

Food: They have limited breakfast items i.e idli, vada, puri, tea, coffee, milk. All of the food items are good but nothing exceptional in taste as mentioned by so called social media influencers. They serve the food in banana leaves and gives positive vibe for sure.

Ambience: It has a traditional ambience where people can have food on floor as well as tables. They serve food with special care and maintain a hygiene. Unlike other hotels where food is served on per plate basis, they continue to serve as long as you ask. The billing is done based on the number of items you consumed.

Pricing: The pricing is increased and they charge 15 rupees per item. It was priced 10 rupees earlier which was a value for money option.

Parking: One needs to park their vehicles on the street.

I think the social media made this place populor and I tired this place because of that. The main selling point was the ambience and pricing earlier. But since the pricing is increased it is little hard to find the value for money quotient as the food taste is above average and not exceptional. But they continue to have the positive vibe here which is the main reason to visit. This will be good option for outsiders due to its unique ambience but not for...

Everything about this place was over hyped! This place must have been a legendary spot years back, but not anymore! They have just 3 items in the menu, and those 3 tastes horrible! Idly is made out of grinding urad dhal and idly rava, making it hard to eat! The Vada would yield 250 ml oil if squeezed! Poori was definitely made of maida and the sago was a mixture of water , gram masala and some random vegetable! Because of the hype created, every tourist coming to sringeri wants to eat here and the minimum wait time is 30 minutes! I am not sure if they know H of hygiene! While you can witness there 3 different sections of cooking each item, Hygiene was already RIP ! Beyond that, the cramped space, unhygienic area and no ventilation rooms were suffocating! I highly suggest people not to go here, please explore other options or eat in the mutt! And finally, I had been here with my family which includes my aged in laws, all of us fell sick after eating here, we had severe diarrhoea !

Note : before we had food here, we traveled straight from our home and did not eat outside food for more than a week! So if someone is going to point out that other food must have caused our problem, please...

Very hard to find such hotels in kaliyug where they don't count on how much we ate. It felt as though we had walked to our relatives home and were having food just like that, very casual way. It's a very small space, which accomodates upto 40 people inside the hotel - have table dining for 10 people , and 30 people can sit on the floor. We had been for breakfast during navarathri at 9am and the wai time was 40min. One batch takes upto 30min to get over. They will give banana plaintain leaf , serve idly chutney, vada sambar, poori bhaji , at the end coffee and tea. You can keep count of how much of each dish you had and at the end they will come and ask how much of what we had and bill accordingly. Until cleaning of one batch is done, next batch is not let in. Parcel is also available. No seperate cash counter. No washroom. Was it worth 40min wait time? Definitely because this is one in a kind of experience. Definitely a very...
