This coffee shop is not your typical run of the mill . The atmosphere here is airy, delightful and picturesque. The coffee is exceptional and there pastries are delicious, their banana strudel is divine. Definitely worth giving this place a try cause it just might be new little escape.
We decided to get some dodh pati tea to go on a random weeknight. The place only had a few customers so was hoping it would be a very pick ip for me. I ordered the tea and after 2-5 mins the staff was like dodh pati will take 10 mins to be ready we can give you the evaporated tea (Called Chawallah Chai) which should come out relatively quicker. They lied and i waited for around 10-15 mins for the quicker option which was presented. It didn’t stop just there. Their fancy to go cups didn’t close properly and on my way home some of the hot eat spilled all over my car. Hoping after all that nonsense the tea would atleast be drinkable, but we were wrong it was really bad. Safe to say we won’t be returning. Beware to goers.
We visited during soft opening (Eid al-Fitr). Customer service was great, Kashmiri (sp?) chai was fresh and tasty, made to order. Girl at the counter was nice and explained some items to us. Being non-muslim, I am happy to see more islamic culture in our community.
