Favorite place to find artisanal gourmet cheese and processed meat like salami, sausages and more. You can even find sauces, dips, herbs etc. but the range/variety in these are limited. I guess the cheese and meat products are the highlight. Great service. They have someone suggested you the right products based on your want. I tried the smoked cheddar and the vintage cheddar. Loved it. Even tried the salami which was yum.

If this rating was just for their ambience, i would definitely given a 5 on 5. It has a very rustic ambience that justifies their image of a French Cafe. Warm lighting and a very cozy place with some very nice hand-picked books to read while you sip on that coffee. The menu could have had more novel options when it comes to food. Nevertheless, the chicken salami and olives pizza that we tried was yum. The prices are the biggest let down. For an occasional visit, it's a great place to chill out in.

It's a great place. The ambiance is great and is located at a really popular location. The menu also has great options, has a variety of drinks and bites in Vegetarian and Non vegetarian. The food is more European taste, on the sweeter side. Definitely not spicy. The coffee options are great. All this definitely has a high price to pay.

Located on the main arterial road of Panaji you can miss this’s place. It’s near Kala Academy with parking just across the road. The cafe is a quick brunch and coffee destination and a very good one to. So if you are in panjim and wanna have some nice tasty tidbits and coffee and this is the place. Sandwiches are just okay. They need to change their menu a bit n make more interesting perhaps. Cold coffee was good though. Menu is limited but one can still choose from . The upper sit out is interesting with novel interior. Road below looks beautiful from the arched window. One can spend time with books too. Also the prices were on the higher side. Doubt I'll be returning when there is Cremeux and Pastry Cottage close enough.

Pizza, desserts, mocktails, cupcakes, sandwiches, gourmet coffee, books, guitar, comfy seating, cozy atmosphere, warm service ! Wow ! So many things under one roof. Black vanilla absolutely lives upto the word cafe and cafe culture. All the food and drink items are tasty, service is fast and nice. There is something magical about this place which will drag you inside every time you pass on the road next to it. That rustic wooden name board has some dark, black secrets which hypnotists their customers and makes them come back again and again! Cheers for the best cafe in panjim !

What a sumptuous, satisfying brunch experience. I ordered one portion each of pancake with fresh fruits and maple syrup, stuffed jacket potatoes with Goan sausages, bacon delight, And the salmon sandwich in panini with sun dried tamatoes . This was a greedy over order for 2. This order would suffice for 4. I loved every bite of the authentic, home cooked style of food.

A cosy little cafe set up in an old Portuguese house made the Goan in me so happy 😍 Black vanilla has a perfect set menu for a filling breakfast & fulfilling brunch. The quality of the food and the portion is just perfect. Tried their English breakfast, pink sauce pasta, bbq pizza, mixed seafood salad, waffles & some beverages. Pink sauce pasta is my personal favourite & a must try when you are here. Overall I had a great experience here. This place is going to be in my brunch options list. fantastic food, great location and great vibe, while still maintaining the heart of the venue.

A small and quiet place. Very nicely done interiors and cozy lighting. Needless to say amazing for dates :D. A lot of couples here! There's a high chance you'll not find a place to sit because of the limited seating here. As far as the food goes, it's pretty good! The burgers were filling :). Good choice of beverages (non alcoholic) too. All in all you'll find the rates are overpriced. But with the ambience in here, and the cozy interiors, you'll definitely have a good time and won't mind anyway.

Excellent place for good food and coffee . Don't serve Alcohol. Surprisingly affordable prices for the quality of place . Will return for more meals.

Great food great coffee. Bang on the main road and yet so easy to miss. Parking can be an issue but you should find space across the road. Good sandwiches and pizza. Good coffee. Although They are a little tight on space. Staff is effecient and not intrusive. Overall a great place for conversations

Good place to spend time and have a nice chat. To be honest I liked their older arrangement. Which was like am ordinary Cafe. Upper floor was all sitting arrangement and down it was all cooking place etc. Now it's more like shop rather than eating place. Still it's nice and decent. Service is good and coffee here is awesome as always. There are some minor changes in menu I guess. We all change with time, they also did. Now we just don't know how convenient that change is! I will surely visit again and edit my review. But I highly recommend you to visit this place. Best place to spend time alone, doing your work, sipping coffee.

If you think this is the same old black vanilla then you’re wrong. Please note this. The look is pretty much the same but it’s no more the cafe you knew. As the name says it’s a gourmet store now. Got no cold beverages. Tried their grape delight which was a fermented drink. Don’t take it if you aren’t a fermented drinks person. Had their brownie with ice cream. The ice cream wasn’t so great but ya the brownie was good and chocolatey. But as a gourmet store it’s one of a kind. Will get what you won’t get in other places

Horrible experience. Limited seating capacity and menu which is exorbitantly high (Rs. 150/- for cold coffee which tasted like watered down milk after a few minutes) and staff needs to invest in earing aids since orders aren't processed properly. Staff is also ignorant and doesn't apologise for such mistakes.

They have a good selection of cheese that you can pair with wines. Everything was very fresh. You can do your shopping for that fancy saturday date night at home while they brew your cappucino :)

Coffee The coffee here was really good, they serve Lavazza with a cookie. Ambiance Interiors are great, it's very artistic in here. One could sit and work as well from here. The only problem is if 2-3 tables are occupied it's gets a bit too loud. Location It's right opposite Kala academy. Could be quite tricky to find parking though. Overall its a great place!

A cozy and fancy cafe located in the rush life of panjim city. The ambience gives you a soothing feel which makes spending evenings at this cafe an ultimate option to relax. They have a variety of food options. One of the most recommended beverages would be cafe mocha. Though it's pricey, you'd surely love you at least vist the place once. Their thin crust pizzas are also a great option to choose. While snacking could be fulfilled by their muffins and croissants.

Wow. It was great. The music, gooey cake the deco(Christmas), service. One of the best in town. But while entering make sure have enough in ur wallet. Food is delicious and the ambience is perfect. Must try it.

My favourite New York cheesecake that I ever tasted was from here. They also offer various other pastries, snacks and coffee. Do visit, if only for the cheesecake😋^

I would have loved to give 5/5 stars but i am slightly disappointed with this cafe as they don’t allow guests to use washroom even to wash hands. Due to Covid its must. The food they provide is very nice. Quality and quantity is great. Good ambiance and and good staff too.
