The food is healthy and tasty. The ambience is also pretty good, with few books available for reading.
However, the portions are small and are somewhat overpriced. The main issue however is hygiene and then the service.
We got hair the first time we ate from here. We told this politely to the staff after paying, and pointed out that this occurred since none of the chefs were wearing caps. They assured us that inside the kitchen all are wearing caps. However, most of the menu being salads and bowls, are mixed outside the kitchen in view of the customers from an array of pre- prepared ingredients, kept in open bowls. In this region, none of the staff mixing the ingredients wear caps, and hence, there is a large chance that customers will get hairs in their salads or bowls. They assured us that all will wear caps in this region also in future.
We just visited them today after about a month. We were annoyed to see that nothing has changed, with around three or four staff with their hair flying around happily mixing salads and bowls. So the staff doesn't take the feedback seriously. Neither is any manager visible to inform this major issue. My wife has a serious issue with getting hair in food so much so that she will not eat the food if she gets hair in it. So we will not visit this place hereafter unless the staff wears caps.
Regarding service, no water was given for the whole dining period during both of our visits. There seems to be no manager around to supervise the staff or to see that the customers are...
Read moreSeeds Lifestyle Cafe in Indira Nagar, Adyar is a delightful spot that pleasantly surprised me with its combination of great taste, lovely ambience, and affordability. From the moment you step in, you’re welcomed by a beautifully done, peaceful setting that makes it perfect for casual meetups, quiet work sessions, or even a relaxed solo coffee break.
The taste is absolutely chanceless – every dish we tried was flavorful, fresh, and thoughtfully presented. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into their ingredients and preparation. The pricing is also quite reasonable, especially considering the quality of food and the overall vibe of the place – totally worth every penny.
One big plus is the parking facility, which is a huge relief in a busy area like Adyar. You won’t have to stress about finding a spot – a rare convenience for cafes in the city!
The only area that could use improvement is the service. The staff is polite and well-meaning, but it’s evident that they are still new and not fully trained yet. So, service can feel a bit slow or unsure at times. However, I’m sure this will get better over time, and it doesn’t take away too much from the overall experience.
All in all, Seeds Lifestyle Cafe is a gem – perfect ambience, lip-smacking food, good pricing, and thoughtful touches like parking. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try a fresh, uplifting cafe...
Read moreHi I have been to this place more than 4 times. The first 2 times the experience was good. The third time I noticed the person who was making the bowls was not wearing a glove and was taking out the ingredients with bare hand and placing them in the bowls and plates. The minute he saw me noticing what he was doing he put on the glove. The same thing happened the next time also. Plus the last 2 times they missed putting two of the items as per the description. When I asked them they said it's there I immediately asked them to show in the plate . When he realized it was not there he kept quiet. There was no apology or saying that they will bring both of them . He then admitted that they not added but did not take action at all and quietly brought the bill when I finished eating.
I have a request to the owners. The concept and place is very good. Kindly put a responsible manager or supervisor or the owners themselves need to keep be there in order to take it to greater heights.
Also if u can add some cold soups that...
