Best cafe in Ichalkaranji, hands down. Only downside is the service time, everything else is awesome. The best place to hangout with your friends. Pocket friendly, tasty and awesome ambience. We tried below things, 1. Tea n Bun maska This is the best part of the cafe. The fresh bun covered in butter n sprinkled with black n white sesame seeds is just perfect combination. 2. Paneer Paratha Just wow. Freshly made, good stuffing, crisp n tastes awesome with side dips - chutney n pickle. 3. Dahi wada Spngy wada with sweet, tangy n cold dahi is soothing in hot weather. 4. Daal Baati Its different, filled with stuffing, freshly fried baati, tastes good. Daal is freshly made n tastes awesome.

The whole cafe is a very different and peaceful vibe. It is one of the best places in Ichalkaranji for group hangouts. The place is very small, but the ambience is good. This place comes in the top 3 places in Ichalkaranji, which has the best cold coffee. They have a variety of tea options, which are great for tea lovers. Seating is uncomfortable as there are wooden furniture pieces for sitting, very uncomfortable. Overall, it has all that a cafe needs. I definitely recommend having cold coffee!

I used to go daily here such nice place to hangout in the evening with friends. I love their tea especially rose tea it is very awesome. I've tried almost all the dishes here I've loved all of them and they are very good at making pav bhaji. They have very nice way of sitting you can sit inside and outside too. You can enjoy the evening scene beautiful sunset while having a tea.
