Slow service in the evening

34 guests wrote about waiting, mostly 6–9 pm. Look at evening staff and how orders move from counter to table. Cold brew is the wait people write — pre-batch Saturday evening.

  • The room+92 mentions92%
    Easily the calmest place to work in Besant Nagar.

    People write about the light, the seats, and that it is calm enough to sit.

  • Filter coffee+76 mentions90%
    Best filter coffee on this stretch.

    The plate they name. The wait is the leak, not the coffee.

  • Desserts+64 mentions91%
    Tiramisu for the table. Don’t skip it.

    They share it. Tiramisu and brownie keep the evening ticket.

What annoyed guests

Fix these
  • Weekend evening waitworse68%
    Waited 25 minutes for a cold brew on a Saturday evening.

    Direct driver for lower stars on Saturday evening. Worst between 6 and 9 pm.

  • The bill feeling highworse61%
    Good coffee, but ₹300 for two cups adds up fast.

    Two filter coffees at ₹300 adds up. They are not asking you to become cheap.

  • Parking73%
    Found parking right outside on a weekday, which is rare here.

    Two-wheeler crowding on the weekend. Weekdays they find a spot.
