    This is a collaborative project between India and Japan. Management students from Japan come to India for their project and they manage the tea-coffee store and they introduce many unknown facts about the Japanese companies and based on their hospitality their project get graded. Here the IIT people having valid ID card can get coffee and tea free of cost thrice a day. Coffee quality is really good. They provide TajMahal dip tea.

    This cafe located between the lecture complex is always busy with many students visiting this place to have a free serving of tea/coffee or juices. Although free, the quality is top notch. The staff are ever so polite and warm. It's always a pleasure to interact with them. This cafe also has become a place of gathering where students relax especially after lectures or during lunch breaks.

    The Best Coffee Shack of Insti Some students come to classes and on the way have coffee, while most of the students come to Lecture Hall Complex for SHIRUCAFE 💕 itself and got to classes for attendance. Also, the SHIRUCAFE staff greet their customers heartily

    I have visited this cafe 4-5 times. The cafe is providing free tea, coffee, and juice. You just need to register yourself with your IIT Bombay identity card. The people who serve the drinks are exceptionally nice. I don't come much because it is free.

    Free tea, coffee and juice for IITB students and staff. A nice place to spend some time. Gets crowded occasionally. The orange juice tastes like tonic, but the coffee is really good. Mango juice is also good. There's enough space to sit and talk with friend. The people at the cafe are very friendly. One has to register online to have a drink.

Also, you get to interact with the Japanese students who serve the drinks. They're fun to talk to and you can get to know a lot about Japanese culture from them. Best part is the drinks are fully free, without any charge. The cost is borne via advertising and sponsorship of Japanese companies.

😠 Extremely EXTREMELY crowded. Those waiting can start by scoring some vit D outside and slowly sweat their way to the damp of about 300 diners inside, letting off steam under the first fans Bombay saw in the 60's (50's or 70's??). If your group numbers less or greater than 4, get ready to adjust like...
