    Staff & management will act over smart. Service was pathetic. They will offer you discount and then will force you to pay Service charge to cover for it. Will tag this as Expensive place comparing the services and behaviour.

    Nice corner cafe ... popular in teens for hukka and in ladies for kitty parties. Food was very good... the chief chef prepared the pasta and that was awesome. Beer was chilled. Waiter was over friendly but slow in billing.

    Worst experience. I had expected good quantity according to the high prices they have mentioned, but it was such a disappointment to see the quantity, as if they were doing us some favour. I had ordered garlic prawns, they served 8 tiny prawns, for which I waited for 40 mins and which didn't even take 1 min to finish. And which cost me about 700 bucks😤. Won't recommend this place unless you need ambience.

    We were traveling from US and looking for a clean place to eat and stay .. luckily we came across Cafe Meraki where it wasn’t only clean but also had fresh organic farm produced food cooked to perfection and customized to taste.. The food made us curious to stay here longer and luckily they also had a villa for stay which was clean , big , cozy and the best part was the view from balcony.. The service was prompt and on time.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT… dont miss the chance to enjoy farm produce organic food and an experience of living in beautiful majestic hills

    Pathetic experience, worst food, super slow service.. Better to eat at home rather going there.

  • 4/5 Ashutosh K. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a very set up that they have made. The ground floor AC was working but not the 1st floor's. The food is good, one should try the crispy corn in snacks for sure.

    This was for second round of drinks after an earlier round elsewhere. Cocktails were decent- not awesome. But definitely affordable! Starters were quite decent- mushroom and tandoori broccoli were good. Music is loud at the top. Ground floor is much better.

  • 1/5 Sanchaita L. 1 year ago on Google
    Pathetic service! The staff took more than an hour to deliver noodles. The food was below average but overpriced. Not worth it at all.

  • 5/5 Sanya V. 2 years ago on Google
    It is a perfect place to casually hang out with your group of friends. Food is good, hard drinks and soft drinks are both available. Service is quick. The view from inside the place is also nice. Staff is polite and the ambience is peaceful enough to have a chit chat. Lunch and dinner times are busy here

    Small place but good vibes, service and food is very good. Location is also one of the best in Lajpat Nagar. Could have been better if they had more variety in drinks.

  • 1/5 Arushi 8 months ago on Google
    AWFUL SERVICE To begin with, I wouldn't give a SINGLE STAR had that been an option. 1. This is the place to utterly defy the meaning of significance of INDEPENDENCY. I had an somewhat horrible AND LAUGHABLE experience at this place. The server very conveniently hold off to serving my drink to me, and uoon asking the reason for delay, I was told literally that they assumed and were waiting for someone to join me. So apparantly single people should be faced with SUCH ABSURDITY if they wish to enjoy going to a restaurant or Cafe alone. So, if yiu are a someone who likes to treat yourself kr enjoy going to places alone, stay clear of this place. This place has a very nice serving policy for single people which is as per my experience, is to delay their order.

    Awesome atmosphere and foods . They have good spread of food and drinks. Service is fabulous and they have veri big screen so we have enjoyed a lot while watching India vs SA cricket match on giant screen. Apart from that Mr.Gaurav (Manager) is very Generous and up to the marks on thier services and ensuring guests have enjoyed the most while helping to ordering foods and drinks etc. A big five stars 🤩🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

  • 1/5 Yeshall F. 2 years ago on Google
    I enjoyed a few drinks and snacks on a weekend. But as soon as I had paid my bill and waiting for my cab, I was told the table was reserved and so asked to leave. Extremely discourteous behaviour when more than half the cafe was empty.

  • 3/5 Nishtha V. 2 years ago on Google
    Meraki cafe & bar is situated in Defence colony near Moolchand flyover. The place is visible by road. The cafe allows smoking inside and have a varied range of drinks. Though you are advised to ask the availability of the drink or food you want to order because some items were not available when I visited with a friend. The staff is polite and courteous. The ambience is fine.

  • 5/5 Piyush G. 3 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best Cafe I have visited in Delhi. The food was delicious & the staff was really well behaved & managed. I had a great evening with a special person. The location of this cafe is one of the best in South Delhi. It has a very large parking space available in front of it. Anybody who visits delhi must visit this cafe in one of the best localities in South Delhi. You shall also ask for board games & Uno etc from the staff to enjoy your evening with your friends. I would again like to appreciate the Quality of food being offered in the cafe. Everything was so fresh and served really hot. The presentation of food by the chef was also outstanding.

    Last night visited this place. Amazing vibe. Washrooms were clean. Tables were sanitized. Rooftop area was beautiful. I loved the food. Veg and non veg both platter were super delicious. Drinks and sheesha was also available. 10/10 ❤️ must visit.

  • 5/5 Kriti K. 2 years ago on Google
    Had an amazing experience here. I ordered honey chilli potatoes, soya champ and a pizza all of them were super tasty. Love the ambiance as they have a live music on Wednesday's where Prateek Oberoi performs and he's truly a star. Enjoyed my evening to the fullest.

  • 5/5 PRASOON P. 1 year ago on Google
    Really liked the ambience and the first floor vibe was good with a really large screen. Food and drinks were good and that too with a reasonable price.
