A green place in all respects, call it a green house or a tree house! Be it the color of the building or the energising yet relaxing vibes of the yoga class downstairs or the fitness-inspiring menu, The Yoga House is a must visit if you want a taste of health, nature and solitude in one go. The place is divided across the floors, with a seating of high stools, chairs, cushions and pillows. I loved the way they have named the dishes and frames of yoga poses on a certain wall; adds to the overall feel of the place! Also, they serve water in copper glasses! 😍
I wanted the Wheatgrass Shot but as it was unavailable, began with the refreshing Energy Shot of amla and ginger. (3.5/5)
From the breakfast menu, we had the Ten Grains Bread With Paneer Bhurji wherein scrambled cottage cheese cooked with tomatoes, onions and herbs is served with toasted bread. I felt it was a bit high on the turmeric (3.5/5)
The Clear Veg Soup (I AM REFRESHING) was loaded with brocolli, spinach leaves, finely chopped bell peppers, carrots, onion and garlic seasoned with salt and black pepper. Light and delicious! (4/5)
The Ayurvedic Tomato Soup with tomatoes, onion, garlic, cinnamon, curry leaves and black pepper tastes natural as compared to the artificially flavoured ones you get elsewhere. Both the soups are served with multigrain bread. (3.5/5)
I AM INVITING Vanika's Salad made of couscous, has crunch coming in the form of walnuts and a hint of sweet from the pomegranate, topped with fresh parsley and feta cheese. The concoction of orange juice, white vinegar, white pepper and olive oil adds zing to the otherwise bland salad. (3.5/5)
If you are craving a burger that's not loaded with calories, TYH has two such healthy variants. The signature I AM DETOXIFYING Quinoa Burger with watermelon seeds, basil, coriander and spring onions served with homemade hummus is a delight for hummus-lovers. Served with a side of lettuce and tomato salsa. (4.5/5)
I AM TONING is a maxi protein cottage cheese burger where the patty is made of paneer, olives, sundried tomatoes and almonds, the chutney made of spinach. Filling and yumm! (4/5)
Desserts called for the I AM STIMULATING sin-free chocolate mousse that's made from dark chocolate and dates to add a bit of sweetness as they add no sugar or artificial sweeteners. (4.5/5) The Carrot Cake is moist and soft, made of fresh carrots that uses minimal raw sugar, flour, yogurt, butter, cinnamon and spices. (4.5/5) The eggless Decadent Chocolate Chip Cookie made of crushed chocolate chips, flour, cocoa, brown sugar surprises you with melted chocolate in the centre! (4.5/5)
Service is relaxed and friendly.

Read moreThe Yoga house Cafe
The Yoga House Cafe is an amazing combination of preserving pre vedic Indian ancient wisdom of Yoga and its health benefits along with modern chic sophisticated ambience and organic concious food. It serves some cutting edge macrobiotic recipes and ancient dietary wisdom and traditions.
When I entered this bright green Nargis Villa I started to have second thoughts because the wooden stairs which led to the cafe felt like may be I am in a wrong place. I reached a Yoga Classroom which is on the 1st floor and then it looked quite interesting. And then this cafe is located on the 2nd floor near Rizvi College Cater Road Bandra West. The interiors look and feel like you are relaxing somewhere in Goa. The colour combination of the interiors is very soothing and you will see all beautiful green plants everywhere. I took the best spot in the cafe which is the terrace with a nice glass rooftop. Here you are supposed to remove your footwear.
Now coming to the Food it was served in brass vessel which again has several health benefits.
This is what I tried
I AM INDULGING Capri Tartine Rs 325 3*/5
Grilled Mozzarella, black olives, cherry tomatoes, basil, garlic bread and pepper
The Tartine was nice and fresh with roasted sesame seeds and the flavour was good but I personally didn't find this extraordinary as it could have been more cheezy and I didn't get any taste of the garlic bread. Too expensive for the taste.
The Miracle Rs 255 5*/5
Apple ,Carrot and Beetroot juice
Beautiful colour and amazing taste loved it. Definitely felt like it was some kind of a magic portion.
Cappuccino Rs 165 5*/5
The Yoga house blend served with delicious jaggery extremely refreshing
So I was here with a friend around 4 pm and I left this place around 8:30 pm which clearly gives this one indication that this place has a very comfortable and welcoming environment. We worked here for few hours without any disturbance and if you love books there are some great books on the shelf which you can pick up and read.
*Note: The water served is bottled water for Rs 135.
My Experience
Food: 4*/5 Ambience: 5*/5 Service: 5*/5 Staff: Very Friendly Price: Can be priced better as tartine was too Expensive for the taste Parking: Not Available (it's in a narrow lane) Seating: Very comfortable Quantity: Good Quality: Great Also Pet friendly Since i felt really relaxed over here the Overall Value for...
Read moreA Cozy Cottage Cafe for Healthy Food Lovers
January 2022
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Yoga House, a charming cafe nestled in a cozy cottage in Bandra. As a health-conscious individual, I was thrilled to discover a place that not only served organic and healthy food but also provided a serene and inviting atmosphere.
Arriving early on a Sunday morning, I was greeted with impeccable service from the moment I stepped foot inside. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, which added to the overall positive experience.
The food at Yoga House exceeded my expectations. The cafe offers a wide variety of healthy alternatives to traditional staples like sandwiches, coffee, and chai. Each dish was not only visually appealing but also bursting with flavors. The quality of the ingredients was evident, and I appreciated the emphasis on using organic produce.
However, it's worth noting that Yoga House's focus on healthy alternatives might not suit everyone's taste. Those who prefer more indulgent options or are not accustomed to organic and wholesome food choices might find the menu limited. While the cafe does offer a range of options, it predominantly caters to health-conscious individuals.
One aspect of Yoga House that particularly impressed me was its aesthetic appeal. The cottage setting provided a warm and cozy atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a leisurely meal or catching up with friends. The interior decor was tastefully done, and the natural light streaming through the windows added to the ambiance. The cafe's photogenic charm was undeniable, and even those who are not typically inclined to take pictures would find themselves tempted to capture the beautiful surroundings.
While I cannot comment on the nighttime ambiance, based on my morning visit, I can confidently say that Yoga House is a delightful spot for anyone seeking a healthy and peaceful dining experience. From the excellent service to the delicious food and picturesque setting, this cafe offers a refreshing and rejuvenating break from the bustling city life.
Whether you're a dedicated health enthusiast or simply looking to explore organic and wholesome dining options, Yoga House is well worth a visit. Just be prepared to embrace the healthy alternatives and appreciate the unique charm this cafe...
