  • 5/5 Krutarth R. 2 years ago on Google • 204 reviews
    Was on my wishlist since long. Finally visited to do some work-from-cafe and turned out to be a very good experience. Found the table in the corner with power plug. There is a lot of outdoor seating space. The ambience is lovely and peaceful surrounded by some trees. The food and coffee was very good. Recommended to sit, relax and have food while working, reading, discussing some ideas or just spending some creative time alone.

    It's one of the best cafe in town. The vibe of this place is just different and it'll make you visit it again and again. It's the must visit cafe during winter and have yummy hot chocolate!

    Very hip place. There is Amdavad ni Gufa which is basically a structure built into the ground and serves as a place to chill. Paintings are definitely attractive. A little exhibition/ store which displays various textile materials created by artists can be found on the side. Food is nice and they have good desserts.

    This serene café, nestled beside an art gallery, offers a diverse menu for every palate. Though limited to outdoor seating, the zen ambiance captivates. The array of menu options satisfies diverse tastes, making it an ideal stop for a tranquil meal amid artistic surroundings.

    Excellent place to chill and give a thought to your marketing strategies and future endeavours. Open place, fresh air and artistic surrounding. There is a art gallery as you move ahead on the left.

    This review is solely based on the personal experience with the restaurant. This cafe has lost its charm, previously it used to be very lively and crowd used to be creative and really nice. Hence, I think for me its time to find a better place instead of coming here again.

  • 4/5 B B. 3 years ago on Google
    The best thing about this place is the chill vibes! The food is also great! Prices are be on the higher side, but that is made up for when you taste the good food. Service is also okay. Chairs for seating are less in number so it gets difficult to find one when it's crowded. But you can also accommodate yourself on the steps/bleachers which get cold during winter evenings. They can definitely add more chairs and tables.

    Perfect romantic and chill getaway for a tiring day. Can come and chill with friends for work or just sit leisurely. Also a perfect place to spend quality time in peace with loved ones. The surroundings are all green and peaceful making it a perfect stress reliving spot with good coffee and pizzas on the side. This spot is a favourite ❤️

    Open space covered with lush green trees and art right in the heart of Ahmedabad along with nice food. It is bit expensive but if one gets a chance they should visit it.

  • 5/5 Digvijaysinh C. 2 years ago on Google
    Seen transforming this place from secluded to happening in span of 21 years. Lately it is been commercialised a bit, though on special evenings you can spend good time here.

  • 5/5 Tarunkumar S. 9 months ago on Google
    The atmosphere is really good, for a person who likes open space this is a perfect place for you. The place is inside the university but its open for all. Also the rates are afordable and above that it is one of perfect place in rain. They have big roofs above the tables so you can sit under it even though its raining you will have very good time with the atmosphere. We had cold coffe and mint mojito both of them were good. Also they are few art and decoration beside the cafe which is nice to visit. Worth visiting place.

    Worst food ,i ever ate in my life. Cold cofee -no taste Elaichi tea-pathetic Served in broken cup & saucer Sandwich-worst in my life Only gud thing is outdoor seating arrangement. Must avoid food even if they are offering for free. Avoid food even if they pay you to eat becoz it can make u sick. The quality was so bad

Overall, a delightful café with impeccable service and mouthwatering treats. already planning my next visit. A must-visit spot for any coffee and food lover

  • 4/5 Anchal A. 1 year ago on Google
    This place has a vibe thats indescribable and unmatchable. The food is average. Their garlic bread is to die for. Drinks are good. Its reasonably rated. Parking is an issue in late evenings. Love the place will go again 4sure.

  • 5/5 Kartik G. 2 years ago on Google
    Cafe is located in the middle of a college campus. Entrance to the cafe is slightly obscure and gps doesn't take you exactly at the right place, so it'll be better to ask around. The place has a warm cafe vibe and the food is delicious. Tomato mozzarella sandwich, cappuccino and ginger tea were amazing. Pasta wasn't that good comparatively. It's a good place to hang out with friends, or even work in the open area. There is only outdoor seating option available though. Also, I think one needs to place the order at the counter (menu wasn't brought to us).
