The Sanctuary is really a great place to relax, unwind and restrospect. The food is amazing (healthy and tasty), there are lots of books and texts on spirituality, and cute products you can purchase for your home! I would recall it as a great experience!
Janet Pulickel
Decent place for brownies and coffee. Quite cozy, great music, chapel, gift shop and library available
Nilanjan Guha Majumder
A small cozy cafe at ground floor, one tiny sitting area outside too surrounded by plants, at peaceful area beside the main road.
Then you have a souvenir buying area at first floor with a room for playing music, with a keyboard.
And finally a small but stuffed library at the second floor with a beautiful terrace with the sounds of birds chirping.
Very courteous staffs.
One cold coffe with ice cream cost me 150 bucks.
What else do you want? 🙂

The staff are so courteous especially Mac Raymond. He has a warm smile and he treats every customer so professionally. I love his special coffee. Incredible special breakfast, pancakes (the strawberry syrup was delicious) & kheema dosa. Loved the iced teas. I cannot forget the mouth watering cheesecake. I love how they make the food with love here. Saturdays should always be spent in The Sanctuary. Taz James

I've been having my coffee and burgers from Sanctuary for four years now. It's a very peaceful place for someone who's looking for their alone time, very friendly staff who listens to you if you ever need to talk to someone, and their breakfast omlets and pancakes are delicious. Sanctuary has always been the same quiet place with good food and even better ambience. It's worth it to make a day out of this place.
Sukanya Mahanta

"The Sanctuary" it is a cozy and cute cafe located in front of Itc infotech tech park. It is very easy to find as it's on the main road itself.<br/><br/>The ambience of the cafe is very well decorated with the quotations and beautiful drawings. Though it's a small place but it serves amazing menu. I ordered Chicken Sandwich Combo, which consists of Chicken Sandwich + Chips + Coke. All the items were freshly made and the was good. I felt the quantity was little less as per the pricing of the combo. If you are near around banaswadi and finding some place to hangout then this can be a good option.
Food Knight
Ordered the "Santuary Special"<br/>With Frech toast on the side.<br/>This comes with coffee as well included.<br/><br/>It's a pleasure to see the attention to detail given to make this morning meal which they serve every Saturday.<br/>To make things simple, this is really tasty!<br/>The ingredients harmonize well with each other to energize you for the rest of your day.<br/><br/>Thank you Mac and a special thank you to Ranjit who served me.

This is the perfect cafe. Such a cozy place and such sweet staff. I love the ambience here. I have always visited this place for a Saturday brunch. They have pretty decent options and prices are reasonable. They have a gift shop on first floor and a library with kind of open terrace on the second. You can always visit this place. Very warm and welcoming
Ahalya Acharya
This is such a cute place! And reasonable too. <br/>The vibe is homely and relaxed, filled with the smell of freshly brewed coffee and whatever is being made. <br/>We had their Irish coffee, cappuccino, special cold coffee, carrot cake and strawberry cheese cake. <br/>The Irish coffee and the cappuccino were amazing. Freshly brewed and full of flavour, served in random cups (really felt like we were chilling in someone's house). The cold coffee was a bit too sweet for my liking, but I prefer my coffee with 0 sugar. <br/>The cakes were fresh and divine. The carrot cake was soft, moist, and crumbly in the right proportion, and the cheesecake, though different from what you usually get everywhere was yummy! <br/>We were constantly pleasantly surprised by how delicious everything was for the price we were paying. It was filled with regulars and people who were just chilling. It's the perfect place for a casual meeting, or date, or just a solo visit by yourself. <br/>If it wasn't all the way in Banaswadi, I'd go there pretty regularly!
OZ Zoi
Been a few times just for their brownies mm mm mm the best brownies I have had I must say... They are dry and soft inside and delicious! And the chicken cutlets are Yummy and everything is fairly priced.... I'd visit more often :)
Sayantani Dhar
It's a place where I guess anyone will want to go. A place where you can go and chill with your friends and eat good food. It's a perfect place for evening snacks and Saturday breakfast. Chicken cutlet, chicken and ham sandwich and chocolate cake are the speciality there. A must visit for anyone who wants to relax and have delicious food.

Nice Name. :) This is what attracted me to the place. Plus all the plants outside the cafe ! :)<br/><br/>The ambience is very cozy. Very very cozy. It's a small place. I love the peaceful vibes that O get when I enter some places. Can sit here for hours together.<br/> Feels very homely in a different way.<br/><br/>Food - Didn't try much. Had a veg burger with coke and have no complaints at all.<br/><br/>Service - Yes, good. :)<br/><br/>Visit this place if you need to relax, lay back, need peace of mind or just wanna be alone. Love this place. :)<br/><br/>RECOMMENDED (IN BOLD) - Their Home Made Chocolate Fudge ! Best I've ever had !
Jitesh Dembla
A homely place run by nice people. They have a chappel kind of a set up inside. Sadly they shut at 8 pm and are shut on Sundays I think. Chicken cutlet was yum and so was the cappuccino.
Sandeep Das
Decent place for breakfast/ brunch. Good Burgers, hot dogs and tasty sausages. Loved the ice cream with Pancakes were awesome..cooking is done besides the counter . Nice homely food. Lovely , smiling and welcoming staff. However serving time is slow and lots of flies if one sits outside..
Rachel Rose Dsouza
My most favorite cafe in Bangalore. The ambience rightly captures the name Sanctuary. Whenever your feeling low, just check in to Sanctuary, uplifting Christian music, extremely friendly and courteous staff, the best chapel where you can truly feel the Spirit and Peace of Christ and a cute gift store. The chicken mayo sandwich is my favourite. God bless you guys!
Amritha Samuel
One of my favourite places to spend a quiet evening. I've been visiting this place since 2009 and little has changed since then. The food is simple and tasty, though slightly inconsistent at times. The sausages and brownies deserve a special mention. They also have a library/gift store upstairs.<br/><br/>The service is always quick and the guys than own and run this place never fail to put a smile on your face. I'd just like to say, I appreciate what you guys do. You really do make an impact in the area.
Mahima Shanker
So after college, we were craving for cake and a friend suggested this place. It's pretty small and cosy. They've put up cute decor since it's almost Christmas. We ordered a strawberry cheesecake, carrot cake and rich chocolate cake with a scoop of vanilla icecream. The carrot cake was marvellous❤ and the chocolate cake was pretty normal, the cheesecake didn't taste like a typical cheesecake but wasn't that bad.<br/><br/>Ambience-3.5/5<br/>Food-4/5<br/>Price-4/5<br/>Service-3.5/5
Shreyank Gowda
A decent hang out place. The staff are extremely sweet in the way they handle their customers. They provide magazines and books to read for time pass. Coming to the food the cheese cake here was extremely good. The fries were decent. However the chicken burger seemed too bland, could've had more of a flavour. However overall a very nice place to visit!

The Sanctuary is a quiet cafe located on the Banaswadi main road, close to the ITC Infotech building. If you are looking for some quiet time, all by yourself eating some burger or grabbing a quite bite that has a homely taste to it when you are around this area, then Sanctuary may be the best fit.<br/><br/>The decor is minimalistic, with white walls, simple seating, with some potted plants around. You could also sit on the top floor balcony, outside the library, its even more peaceful and charming. <br/><br/>The service is normal, pricing is very reasonable, and the staff is polite and courteous. I have made a few visits to this place, read a book for hours together until the closing time of 8.00pm in the evening, which seems early in my opinion.
Eva Peter
Love the place here. Calm. Just opposite my office. You get nice coffee and tarts that are home made. Cute boutique upstairs for getting gifts for friends and family. Very homely.
Jyothi Varne
This cozy little cafe is tucked away from all the main road traffic opposite the ITC Factory.<br/>We first noticed it. when we wanted to go to D'Souza cafe in the next road<br/>The cafe has a warm feeling to it, with a gift shop and a c hapel at the top.Brownie seemed a little stale to me and the my cold coffee literally felt like sipping the instant coffee powder out. Their chilled drinks need a lot of improvement and a little lively decor would do to
Vivek Nair
I loved the place absolutely. It has got a divine feel to it. Awesome coffee and sides. What I loved most is the collection of reads they have on the tables.
Jennifer Pinto
One of the nicest places in Bangalore...they have a lovely gift shop on the first floor with some simple gifts and they also have a chapel/ prayer room there. On the topmost floor they have a beautiful collection of books, they have library membership and soul nurturing reading material. Great place for peace, quiet and a good time. Its not like your usual noisy coffee shops with loud crazy music. Its a place you can meet with friends and actually have a meeting or a conversation. Its meant for an ADULT./MATURE crowd and discerning connoisseurs. The staff are friendly and polite. Of course if you act over smart and loud and pretentious, then no one really cares for it...but be nice and they'll be nice to you. They're always smiling. If you're looking for a jatpat breakfast and snack, then time to hold your horses and cows!!! Its a laid back lovely place where a family can enjoy. For jatpat, please head on over to a darshini..
Lopamudra Rao
Racist pigs!! We had to wait for more than 45 mins for our simple order of an omelette and fried egg to come through but the firangs on the table next to us, who came after us, got everything in a jiffy!! Shitty service. Over promising menu but most of the stuff is not there. Quaint little place and all that but their attitude spoilt my Saturday!! If there was 0 rating I would give that...
Grubster
Pretty cosy place! Not the best coffee in the world but okay for a meeting or two . Would come back for sure. Also in the neighbourhood where there is a scarcity of cafes
Tanmay Amar
There are some places, where the ambience is so great that it completely wins you over, this is one of them. Laid back, charming, genial and quaint. That about describes the place. It has fairly simple, Spartan furniture. Some pleasant colours are added in. There is an abundance of staff. There is something endearingly old world about this place, and is aptly named.<br/><br/>I went on a Saturday morning, on Saturday they have a special breakfast menu. The food was quite decent, they fumbled with my order a little, but were very apologetic and nice about it. I liked my keema dosa. I followed it with a chicken cutlet and a chocolate milkshake, which were both decent as well.<br/><br/>The staff was very polite, friendly and courteous. Prices were quite reasonable.
Mac Raymond
On every Saturday morning, from 9-12, there is English Breakfast.Amazing menu with a lot of love put into it. I love the sanctuary special, it is called the mother of all omelettes, with everything in it... Onions, tomato, mushroom, chicken sausage, cheese and served with a portion of baked beans and a cup of coffee.
Pankaj Salaria
Ok place to pass by nd have a gud quick bite coz I always liked to eat such items but they are more of nonveg food wch i dont eat much, not even twice a month so i didn get many options to go often...
Irene
Go here just for the ambience! <br/>Can't say much about the food cause I haven't tried much. <br/>The iced tea is basically the Lipton ice tea or tastes like it. <br/>But its a nice place to just relax and spend time. :)
Ssheema16
Awesome chicken burger! :D :D :D
Chirag Dehal
The price range is low, really low. Then again the menu is very precise and does not offer many choices, the decor is pretty impressive the library as well, their Saturday breakfast is something to come for again and again. Favourites- Their Chicken Burgers
Shruthi
A nice and a cozy place to hang out with your book or just to meet someone. The menu is limited which is a drawback and so it the closing time. Which is about 8:00pm. Its a self service cafe with a polite staff.
Puja Majumder
Well if you are looking for some quiet time by yourself, then The Sanctuary is the perfect place. It's basically a cafe cum boutique cum library. The ground floor cafe basically serves burgers, sandwiches, mock tails, cutlets, coffee, ice cream and a variety of cakes. We tried grilled chicken sandwich, chicken burger and a grilled veg sandwich. With the limited option, the food was average with nothing very great about. But the second floor balcony outside the library ( yes they allow you to go there ) just takes your heart away. Do give it a visit with time on your side. If for nothing, I can just sit there watching life go by.
Jim Frazer Henry
The place known for quietness! Love the ambience and black coffee n home made recipe! A delight to the taste buds
Ryan Dias
Quiet little place right on the main road. Perfect for a pit stop from work, or to work, depending on what time you work of course! Really sweet staff, dirt cheap prices, attracting mostly the neighborhood teens and college goers.<br/><br/>At 55 Rupees, the chicken burger is the closest to a homemade burger you can get in this city. Great place for a quick bite, alone or with company. Coincidentally, also ideal place to relax, unwind and pass your time if you've nowhere to go.<br/><br/>Recommended - Chicken burger & special cold coffee
FoodieHall
Really quaint little place tucked in the hustle and bustle of itc. Really good cakes and bakes- brownies and carrot cake. Also heads up for Saturday morning breakfast!
Ashutosh Kumar Singh
