This place is so awesome! I love the chai options my favorite is the Kashmiri chai which has such a rich creamy velvet flavor and its slight pink color. I also like the masala chai that has great multi flavor profiles that go with the spices. I could go here multiple times and never get tired of trying all the drink options they have. I highly recommend coming here for either a date, quick drink grab or a relaxing sit on the couch to work on your laptop. Plenty of seating options and they have board games and such to play if you have time to chill and want to sit back and enjoy. The service is always so friendly and welcoming. Definitely a 5+ star rating for me.

The atmosphere is very calm and welcoming. The staff are very nice and easy to talk to. I always have a great time coming here, there’s never a dull moment. The spot is a secret gem that has slowly become an ultimate chill spot!!!
I had such a lovely experience at this café! Their chai selection is truly something special—beautifully balanced Indian chai with comforting spices, and a fragrant Arabian chai that’s rich, smooth, and wonderfully aromatic. You can really taste the authenticity in every cup. Their latte is just as impressive—creamy, perfectly crafted, and made with real attention to detail. It’s the kind of drink that makes you want to slow down and enjoy the moment. The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. If you’re a chai lover or a coffee fan, this café is definitely worth a visit! ✨☕
If you are looking for a chill out spot with your mates or trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of the office then this is the place for you. The interior is fantastic! The awesome wall art gives this spacious cafe a warmth. The beanbags, comfy sofas, barstools, tables and chairs caters for every mood. The Tea House is a versatile space wether you are chilling or having a meeting with your colleagues. If that wasn’t enough then there’s more! The games dotted around are a wonderful touch. The giant Jenga caught my eye but unfortunately we had to leave on a long drive home. Shoutout to Sid for a lovely conversation about the concept of this unique place. We ordered Karak Chai, Kashmiri Chai, Oreo Milk Cake and a Pistachio Milk Cake. The drinks were amazing. The tea was made with freshly ground spices so we could pick up all the warm notes of the flavours that were blended to perfection. The cakes were delicious. Looking forward to coming back for more.
