Extremely Disappointing Experience
We had a terrible experience at Kookie Jar. My sister and I were drenched in the rain and stepped in hoping for a warm and welcoming place. When we politely asked for tissues, the staff rudely told us they don’t provide any unless we order something first—which was shocking and insensitive given our condition.
We went ahead and ordered coffee and dessert. While the dessert was decent, the coffee was extremely underwhelming—tasted like a ₹10 Nescafe sachet, but we were charged ₹250 for it.

Please come up with a few new and cute items just like these ones. I...

The store itself has a pretty neat display of items spread across the breadth of the space. Their cakes are especially good as long as you get a fresh one. Have had instances of having bought day old baked stuff which turned out to be incredibly dry. With the prices charges, that is completely unacceptable. In store service is a joke unfortunately, and doesn't match with the quality of the goods served. Would recommend the store to ensure proper quality checks and not stock old cakes. Of course the place is pricey, which I would pay for fresh and good quality cakes, sandwiches, etc but not for stale...
