I have been here numerous times and also order takeaway often. They also provide delivery and is legit one of my favourite places to eat at in Barrackpore. Although the menu mostly consists of common Chinese and Bengali and Indian dishes, most of the items that I've ordered are prepared well and taste amazing. The complaints I have regarding their food are very minor. For instance, I wish they'd serve some other dips with their starters other than ketchup and kasundi. Also, include some more kinds of coffees and beverages in their menu. Other than that, the food is very affordable and the only item that I think is a little bit on the pricier side considering the quality and the portion size is the sizzling brownie.
Coming to the ambience, the cafe is very spacious and well decorated. However, it is not air conditioned, which I believe is a conscious decision taken by the owners to keep the food prices affordable. This sometimes lead to a stuffy environment, especially in hot and humid weathers. I definitely recommend going during cooler months. They also have live music here sometimes.
The staff is courteous and polite, but the service can be a bit slow at times if the cafe is busy. Earlier, there was a young lady server who was very attentive and prompt. Ever since she has left, I feel the service has gone down a little. Recently, I visted the cafe for dinner and the service was even slower than usual despite it being relatively empty. I believe these are all things that can be taken care of and the cafe has the potential to achieve even more in the...
Read moreThis is one of the biggest cafes in the area of Barrackpore situated near the wireless gate, Kalyani expressway, which serves a good range of snacks and beverages at affordable prices. The first point that catches one's attention is the marvelous piece of artworks which covers the walls of the cafe . One can see the evolution of Kolkata by the time from this art works which are beautifully crafted. We ordered cold coffee, roasted fish and mixed hakka noodles among which the noodles and coffee were great. The fish was extremely saucy but was fresh. The lead time of serving was a little high though. The last owner of the cafe was very well behaved and warm towards the guests. The little kid of the owner was such a jovial guy we have met at this cafe, he was always very curious to interact with us and give his suggestions about the food items and wanted us to play with him. It was such a nice evening for us! The capacity of this cafe is quite high and the seats are also comfortable. There is a private cafe area to celebrate the birthday or anniversary as well. The variety of food items is little less which can be improved. However, this is undoubtedly one of the most Instagrammable cafes in...
Read moreBeen there yesterday. You step in there and you can tell they have just started. I don't want to be harsh about the review for things will improve for sure.
The greatest boon is the location. I personally found the graphics to be too loud. Sitting arrangement is the same, it's good but won't give you the cozy vibe. Menu is not diverse. Lacking options in coffee and food. The idea of cafes for me always surrounds coffee and snacks; they lack option in both. Then comes the service. Staff in inexperienced and seems nervous. And to mention one person keeps walking up and down past your table for no reason, that seemed odd to me. Nothing much to review actually. For me the vibe of a cafe stands on 2 points, interaction and decor, they are a little short in both. I didn't get a cafe coziness from there. I hoped things turn better for...
