    It was a quite nice spot to hang out with friends and family. I went there with my friends for the hi-tea buffet. Nonetheless, the buffets began serving at 5:30 rather than 5 pm (the hours were 5pm–7pm), most likely due to the fact that most guests arrive later than expected. Everything was satisfactory but not quite enough. I was let down by the nachos, though 😕. However, the location is great for capturing photographs 😄Nice experience all around 👍🏻

    Went there for the first time. I had a wonderful time as the place was very relaxing. But yeah to enjoy it, I had to climb the stairs and passage was more like a bhool bhulaiyan type. The food was good. I ordered chicken chowmein and matka chai...I loved the candy shop inside ...didn't miss rafaello 😊❤️

    Average place & average food. Might be good for quick bite. Took 30 min to serve. We ordered Club-sandwich, Fry Platter, Desi Bun Kababs. Average taste & eatable. Only chai was upto the mark! We went in evening, so music scene was not ready at the moment, otherwise i believe you can enjoy live music. Environment 4/5 Food 3/5 Service 3/5 Value for Money 3/5

    Retreat club / koyla chai is the best place to relax and have yummy food. You order paratha or fast food or fo for a desi food you will never be disappointed. They have amazing tea menu which most of the chai places can't beat the taste... Today I had Turkish toast kabab what amazing taste it had just like the ones we have it in Turkey 🇹🇷.

    Very impressive and loving atmosphere with dedicated staff. The pool site was very charming . We had Biryhday Party over there. A serene view of the pool attracted our children very much and the area was reserved for our family that ❤ made our hearts 💕 happier ❤ . A dinner and family feasting the first time we really enjoyed. Highly Recommended for Family 👪

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting Koyla Chai, a remarkable restaurant that left a lasting impression on me. From the moment I stepped foot inside, I was captivated by the unique atmosphere and delightful offerings. Koyla Chai's speciality lies in their method of preparing tea on coal, which sets them apart from other establishments. This unconventional approach infuses their tea with a distinct flavor and aroma that simply cannot be replicated using conventional gas stoves. In addition to their exceptional tea, Koyla Chai offers a wide array of delectable items such as sandwiches, fries, and refreshing drinks. The menu caters to various tastes and preferences, ensuring that there is something for everyone. I particularly enjoyed the perfect balance of flavors in their sandwiches, and the fries were crispy and seasoned to perfection. It's clear that the chefs at Koyla Chai take great pride in delivering high-quality and delicious food. One aspect of Koyla Chai that impressed me greatly was the thoughtfully designed waiting area. It was comfortable, spacious, and exuded a warm and welcoming ambiance. As I made my way to the rooftop, I was blown away by the stunning views. The special seating arrangements provided an opportunity to dine while taking in the breathtaking surroundings. It was truly a remarkable experience to enjoy a meal amidst such a picturesque backdrop. For families, Koyla Chai offers a delightful surprise—an inviting swimming pool for kids. The children can splash and play to their hearts' content, adding an extra element of fun and excitement to the dining experience. Moreover, the presence of a candy shop within the restaurant added to the overall charm, making it an ideal spot for families with young ones. One of the highlights of my visit was the daily performances by talented singers. Their captivating voices filled the air with beautiful melodies, creating a soothing and enchanting ambiance. It was a joy to listen to their performances while savoring the delectable food and enjoying the company of friends or family. The combination of great music, delectable food, and beautiful surroundings made for an unforgettable experience. In conclusion, my visit to Koyla Chai was nothing short of extraordinary. From the unique tea preparation on coal to the mouthwatering food options, the restaurant truly offers an exceptional dining experience. The comfortable waiting area, rooftop seating arrangements with breathtaking views, and the addition of a swimming pool for kids further elevate the overall experience. The presence of a candy shop and the daily performances by talented singers add an extra layer of charm and entertainment. I highly recommend Koyla Chai to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience that delights all the senses.

    I used to love Koyla Chai, they had amazing taste and really hospitable staff - Now they're just focussing on earning money and they've lost their path. I went there on the 25th of December, they charged 150/- for an entry because of that snow show for kids. (even though, I didn't want it) I just wanted to dine in for the food, but they charged 150 per head for an entry, then their manager asked us to sit on a very congested table and said I will move you guys on comfortable one in 5-8 mins. The order had arrived after 30-35 mins but he didn't switch our table. The food was so below average that I can't tell. Their pasta was PATHETIC, their burgers and sandwiches were average and cold. IMO they're only surviving because of their vibe and they've pretty good singers.

    Good open sky cafe .the vibes and the ambiance was pleasant .There was a good variety on the menu . The problem was the mosquitoes and poor stairs which can make elderly dizzy but overall a great place to go out and chill. (ps they did say the elevator is to be installed)

    Good restaurant at Bilawal chorangi Clifton Karachi having choice of continental, pakistani, BBQ and general food items. Paratha, omelette, tea are the specialties. Roof top live music is an added recreational activity. Overall good experience

  • 2/5 Tasneem T. 4 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    Honestly the food is overpriced and very average tasting. Service is so slow and lazy. At first they served us masala fries when we order garlic mayo fries and we paid same. When we complained about it they said "yeh aik hi HOTA hai" atleast correct food should be served. Next they gave us soup which was literally cold we gave it back and got it exchanged for a hot one. I think the atmosphere and vibe is amazing. Live music is entertaining and it's a great place for pictures. There's snowfall, gorilla lounge, Christmas decorations, candy shop on 1st floor. Overall place is great but food and service is not worth it. If ur planning to go there soon I must recommend you to take a quick bite and only order starters and less food. Rating dishes I ordered Korean chicken : must try! 9\10 Karahi mutton : 4/10 Biryani chicken : 5/10 Fries : 7/10 Soup hot and sour : 7/10 Alfredo pasta: 5/10 (too much oregano)

    Worst experience. When we reached the place at 9am the seats and tables are not cleaned. Food we ordered is late. Taste of breakfast is below average. The special matka chai is an average chai there is nothing special about it. The only good thing about the place is you can take quality photos and it is well decorated.

    Tried the Matka Chai and Matka Kulfi. Both were superb. Service was extremely slow. Their goal may have been to have us listen to a minimum of 21 live songs before leaving :-p

    The staff is very cooperative. The staff responds very quickly to any feedback provided by the customer which I liked the most. Environment is pretty cool. The female singer sings really well, and the best part is that you can request any song of your own choice and she'll sing it for you right there (If she remembers the lyrics 😉😉😉). Highly recommended for Family as well as Group of friends.
