    One of my most favorite tea cafe in the country! You walk in to a beautifully decorated, small Cafe and get floored by everything there. Needless to say, tea is of top quality. We ordered white tea, double flush and hot lemon tea. We also ordered the roasted garlic cheese sandwich and margherita pizza. Both of these were so delicious that the taste still lingers in my palate. The price is quite reasonable too.

    So we went for an outing few months ago and we choose this restaurant to have something to fill our tummy. From the outside the appearance was appealing so we decided to go inside to look for the variety of choice this restaurant was offering. With our surprise we found that this restaurant has a lot of items in the menu, then we ordered pork sausage bacon ham salami and egg. This is actually a breakfast, now you can say why so heavy breakfast? That's because this breakfast is very popular in Darjeeling where people loves to take heavy breakfast in the cold morning to cope up with the cold. Sausages were soft filled with meat, beacon was shallow fried with pepper, salt etc. but it was soft too perfectly cooked that can be easily torn apart with fork and spoon. Egg was half boiled so it becomes easier to dip the meat with the juicy yolk. It was very tasty, we would love to try that once again. Not so spice dominant rather perfectly balanced. Overall ambience of the restaurant was quite and nice and we liked it. Interior decoration was just amazing, you would feel like sitting at Darjeeling. We wish to visit there once again and would like to try more item's ❤️❤️

    Impressive place when it comes to ambience and feel, not so much with the food and service. However, if you know what to order, you’d come out fairly satisfied with this place. I enjoyed the breakfast platter more, but learnt that the pizza here is better given a miss.

    Took a quick stop here for a cup of tea - recommend by my brother. This place is a cozy one - not very prominent from the street outside. The ambience looked nice although it was empty at this time of the day. Music was great - in fact most of my fav music were playing in the background. There is a space for open mic as well. I will be back here for more later on and update this review.

    Brilliant place with great food, occasional live music performances, and a great interior decor. The different kettles will definitely attract your attention as well as the photos adorning the walls inside. A cool and hip new place in Kolkata to hang out with buddies and close ones.

    Really loved this place. We went for the breakfast and it was totally upto our expectations. Best thing I liked there was mushroom sandwiches. Lemon honey tea was also good. Ambience is really cool and staff behaviour is also friendly. Totally worth it giving it a visit.

    The pizza was really yummmm but me and my friend was highly disappointed with the white tea and the mango dhake. Wasted our money on both of them. Moreover we gave order for premium tea they gave us exotica which was way pricey and really it was plain green tea not even a good one. Please correctly take orders hencefoth. The ambience was nice and the decor too.

👍👍 Recently visited this place and trust me, it was worth every penny. The ambiance was great. We had Mutton Chello Kebab. The kebabs were very juicy and tender, I couldn't stop drooling! The egg yolk was runny and just perfect. The rice portion had a nice fresh smell and all together it was magical in...

😐 Simply come here for the atmosphere and history. Nothing should be eaten here. Cold coffee was a letdown. It was cold water that had been sweetened with a pinch of coffee. The fish kaviraji was satisfactory. Despite the fact that there is a no-smoking sign on the premises, I observed people smoking...
