β β β β β After long time, I went to Coffee House alone with one of my friends.. Thought we will recollect our old memories.. But sorry to say I was totally Disappointed.. And this is only due to very bad Coffee House management...
First of all it's no smoking zone.. But lots of people are smoking setting nearby without thinking about others and no one tailing them. More over there is no Ashtray in the table and the floor is full of ashes.
Hight of everything is..When all people are seating and taking food and all ceilings fans are on, cleaning stuff are cleaning the floor with dry broom ... ? all ashes are flying in the air... It was horrible..
Last point I want to mention, the quality of food is very bad except Coffee and bread toast. I know quality comes with price. But I am asking the basic which very much comes with in this prices.
We may say that this place is for the student and they can't afford more.. But what ever they are spending, they deserve batter quality and environment...
And it's very much possible if Coffee House management spend some time for this rather than the money...
It's my request to all the visitor to keep the place clean... ?

β β β β β Place of Nostalgia ?
Place of british ruled architecture. Attraction is waitersβ unique white dress & unique cap.
If you opt for a highfi cafΓ¨ this is obviously not for you; but if you wanna explore ancient India specifically ancient Kolkata and old memories with homely environment this place is for you. Food quality isnβt so good.
Must explore once in life.

β β β β β I visited the place on a Monday afternoon, it was packed up, only few tables were available and they soon got filled while we took one.
Coming to the food. It's utter disgust. It's overpriced, not tasty and not even warm. I ordered a chicken cutlet, and a chicken sandwich. The former cost INR 85 and the later INR 75. The price is not the factor only if the taste justifies it, but it doesn't. The sandwich is only shredded chicken with little amount of butter, and not even properly salted. The cutlet was the worst. It was just a big piece of potato and veggies stuffing coated with a earth crust size layer of breadcrumbs, if you are lucky you can find 4-5 chicken pieces which is also not tasty. With all this disgust, add the fact that it was not even warm.
The waiters are very weird, one waiter usually takes a table and serves them (this is very normal), but here one waiter will take 3-4 tables and if you mistakenly don't give your order (maybe because you are still deciding on your food) the first time he comes, he will take the the rest table order and will return only after bringing them food. You have to wait until he returns, because no other waiter will take your order even they are free. There is some understanding between then I guess, they mark tables and no other waiter will take your order. It's disgusting.
I'm very disappointed, I gave the extra one star only because it's nostalgia for many. I don't recommend this so called Cafe.

β β β β β As usual it was very crowded. You will have to wait for getting a table. The service is good. U can smoke inside also. Food price is reasonable.wheelchair accessibility is not there. Very narrow circular stair. No parking facility available. Mostly college students are there. Roads are very congested.

β β β β β The ambience takes you back in time.. The crowd is a mix from students to old people..
Tried the basics- Bread butter toast and egg sandwich and the cold coffee..
The thick shake lovers might call it watery but those who loved that Mcdonalds cold coffee will get nostalgic..
A must try for the ambience, super cheap rates and easy and short menu to choose from..
PS- Opens from 12 noon to 8 pm
Cheers..

β β β β β Iconic for a reason!
I think the vibe, the feel, the history and heritage of the place is what makes it faultless despite certain faults.
Come here for a blissfully slow, simple time, it's like if time stood still in the best possible way!
Coming to coffee, i think their infusion aka black coffee is better than their regular hot coffee. Avoid the fish kabiraji, it was weird. The butter toast was lovely, definitely try that if you like simple toast! Onion pakoda was also average.

β β β β β Coffee house could not maintain its great legacy and heritage which it had once upon a time. Now the food is worse than ever and the specialist which is coffee is far more worse. Just a good space to enjoy and gossip in a heritage atmosphere ,but there is no proper maintenance and the restaurant isn't cleared or cleaned properly. They literally don't have 90% of the items on their menu.The coffee tastes like ??...

β β β β β Simply come here for the atmosphere and history.
Nothing should be eaten here.
Cold coffee was a letdown. It was cold water that had been sweetened with a pinch of coffee.
The fish kaviraji was satisfactory.
Despite the fact that there is a no-smoking sign on the premises, I observed people smoking right beneath it. ??
