We visited this store on a weekday for lunch just before it rained, so it felt very cool and gloomy that day. The decor of the restaurant was really rustic and chill and we saw many people sipping their coffee and typing away on their laptops. The place just gave us a very relaxing vibe, like a place where writers come to find inspiration; or to get their dose of caffeine.
We ordered a breakfast platter and a chai latte to share. Sad to say, we were under-whelmed. Although the photo looks kinda inviting, the taste was not that good. I felt the dishes were poorly seasoned and the taste could be improved very much. What I did like was the thick slice of bread. It was the type of bread I enjoyed very much and it seldom get’s served in restaurants. The chai latte was just acceptable. I felt it could have been spiced just a tad more for a better kick. It kind of tasted a little too milky instead.
Overall, it is a great place to spend some time reading a book and meet up with many friends because they actually have a huge sharing table. I would visit this place again if I were close by.
