80 Degree East — Restaurant in Zone 13 Adyar

80 Degree East in Besant Nagar is a newly opened shop, just about three months old, and already it feels like a refreshing addition to the area. The place is neatly designed with a modern look, making it an inviting spot to step in and explore.

One of the biggest highlights here is the introduction of Japanese specialties that you usually don’t find in regular Chennai cafés. The star item for me is their Japan famous soufflé pancake with triple chocolate — unbelievably soft, fluffy, and rich in flavor. It is an absolute must-try for anyone visiting. The texture is light as air, and the chocolate layers add the perfect indulgence. Along with this, they have a good variety of desserts and drinks that make the whole experience feel different from the usual café scene.

The staff is friendly and helps explain the menu, which is useful since some items are new to many first-timers. Service is prompt, and the presentation of food is impressive. Though the shop is new, it has already started creating its own identity, thanks to the unique Japanese influence.

Located in Besant Nagar, which is already a lively hangout spot, 80 Degree East fits in perfectly. Whether you are here after a walk by the beach or just looking to try something new, this place is worth a visit.

Overall, 80 Degree East is not just another café — it brings global flavors to the heart of Chennai. Don’t miss the soufflé pancake with...

Their Japanese souffle pancakes are noteworthy. The first that I've ever tried. It's their signature dish which comes with a variety of toppings and slides down your throat instantly. Another favorite of mine is the biscoff doughnut which is just super soft and gone in seconds. Their fries are of a generous portion and the flavours are enhanced. The idea of having this as a neutraliser between desserts sits right with me - a person who definitely needs some spice between the sweets. Enjoyed the experience of...

First of all, it's not worth the hype. Usually, I don't post bad reviews. Very disappointed after driving a long way to try churros and jiggles, a Japanese pancake, for the first time. Ordered Triple chocolate Churros and biscoff pancake - very bad egg smell is coming out of the pancake which makes you vomit literally. And Churros are very hard, small and the texture of sugar is not mixed in at all. By paying 269 not at all worth it.. They can improve a lot to maintain the quality. The place is very small and has no dining options just get it and eat on the road and leave. Don't go by just seeing Insta reels. Very disappointed with 80-degree...
