Review The Bean Journal - Guwahati

Supratik Bora
Had a wonderful time this evening at the Bean Journal. It's a cozy place, not too big, with a great ambience. I ordered the Thai Seafood Sizzler and fried ice cream for dessert. The sizzler was one of the best I have ever had! The squid and prawns were delightful! And the fish was so succulent and delicious. I also really loved the veggies and especially the mushrooms. Overall, it was a meal packed with flavor. However, I found the fried ice cream to be very underwhelming. Portion size was too less and taste was honestly really mediocre. It was just a round fried batter with liquid ice cream inside. It tasted soggy and bland. It wasn't worth spending 225 rupees on. Other than that, everything else was great. The service was good. They also had live music which made my evening even more magical. Seriously, I am really glad I was in time for the live performance. I would definitely visit the Bean Journal again in the future.

This is one of my go-to places in Guwahati . In my recent visit, I ordered: Baked Fish, Chicken Parmesan & Fresh lime soda. I simply love the dishes here.. The fish was so soft and perfectly cooked.. Chicken Parmesan was also amazing. The chicken was soft and juicy, and the flavor of the sauce was also great.. Overall, it's a highly recommended place..

Like the vibe of the place...like the food and ambience of the place. Great place to hangout with friends. The food combo are very nice... There is a space to seat outside, there you can smoke also. Asthetic cafe with good musical vibe. Urban retro theme is very soothing
Rimjim Borah
Great food. Great ambience. I tried the Marinara pizza and my friend tried the hakka noodles. Thoroughly enjoyed. I'm not the greatest fan of pizzas in general but this one was REALLY good. And the cafe is beautiful. The only problem I have is the chairs (some of them). They're a little uncomfortable and a little too tall. Hope the cafe owners take that into account. Otherwise, the overall experience was good. Clean and hygienic.

What an awesome experience. Went to celebrate a birthday here and it was the best decision. Ambience is amazing, the staff are too polite and cooperative. Coming to food we definitely don't regret a bit. It's 10/10 on taste and presentation. Highly recommended.

Food was really good. We had barbecue chicken with pasta and fries and butter garlic fish. The later one was too good.
Priyanka Choudhury

I happened to experience this cozy cafe mainly due to sudden onset of rain in my evening ride back to home. The design of the cafe was also very inviting, with unique designed craft to decorate the walls and tables. The lighting were really apt by not being too bright or too dim. The sound in the cafe was also kept at the levels where you can have conversations properly. The barista also had good choice of songs being played in the background. The caffecino and iced americano were perfectly prepared by the barista. The club sandwich was good. The roll not so much. I would visit again to try other dish that the cafe offers. Like the lasagna and chicken dishes.
Mrimon Guha
The Bean Journal cafe has great ambience with soothing background music that does not fail to accentuate the chill atmosphere. It is a small and picturesque cafe with very decent staff. They have a cute menu book with a range of options from oriental, continental cuisines. We had ordered chicken hakka noodles, grilled shrimp, roman lamb, virgin mojito. They have good portion sizes at prices that won’t burn a hole through your pocket and the best part is everything tasted fresh and fantastic. Must try- chicken hakka noodles!!!
Kritartha Paul Choudhury
I have been visiting the place regularly. The place has a visually appealing surrounding and the atmosphere their is soothing. Somewhere you can have a good time with friends and family. My personal favourite is the mozzarella cheese sticks, a must have snack along with cup of coffee with an extra shot of espresso.
Nilotpal saikia
Everything is good, foods are too tasty, atmosphere is also good with a spacious smoking area for coffee and sutta lovers,
Mehtaz Marin
Really cozy place to hang out with friends. Loved the food. Service was good. Price was reasonable. Would have loved more options on the shakes though. Quantity of the food was good compared to the price. We ordered Double Decker Chicken Cheese Burger, Chicken Dim sum, Chicken Lasagna and a Mocha Frappe. All the items were delicious. The Burger was a must try. Would love to visit again.
Priyam Kashyap
Ordered Grilled Mediterranean Fish and chicken Lasagna. The Grilled Mediterranean Fish was very good. It was served with mashed potato and grean pea puree. Presentation and taste both was very appealing. The lasagna here was one of the best i ever tasted. It was served with two garlic bread. The quantity will serve 3 people easily. Ambience is good for hang out and dating. Staff behavior is satisfactory.
ankur sarma
Beautiful ambience, beautiful cafe, nice service and delicious food. Nice place to hang out with friends. We ordered sizzling Spanish Tango Ginger Chicken which tastes awesome. Would definitely like to visit again to try all other dishes on the menu.
Rohit D Kashyap
We got a latte coffee and butterscotch shake kinda thing. Both were decent. The atmosphere is really great with a nice location. Have 2-3 parks nearby, river side also nearby for a walk after coffee overall great experience.
barsha amarendra
The food is delicious but the service is extremely slow. we waited for more than an hour for the food to arrive, even though there were only two other guests apart from us. The variety of drinks should be innovated in line with the varied food options they provide. Finding the right drink with each dish is a little difficult now.
Subufa Peenaz
I am very disappointed with the bean journal , worst pizza I ever experienced it's tastes like paper
Riya Soni
Cheesy French fries are the most amazing ones . Both indoor and outdoor sitting are available. Ready good food . <br/>
Pratyushdeepta Arunangshu Barua
Loved the food. Bit disappointed that we weren't offered drinking water until we requested for it along with the bill at the end. No glasses were offered. The waiting staff were well mannered undoubtedly, but the service was too slow for my liking.
Gyandeep Bhattacharjya
Cozy place , good behaviour from the stuff, fast service ,good quality as well as quantity ,food is hygiene<br/>happy fooding peeps 😊😊😊
Adrija Shandilya
Simply in love with the place❤️ the ambience, food everything is so good❤️ the francesinha sandwich is worth trying and the mixed chopsuey is divine😍
Gunjan Sharma
This review is based on home delivered food and hence purely in taste.<br/><br/>I heard a lot about this place - good things. So decided to order today. Got chicken lasagna, chicken chopsuey, garlic bread and a chicken burger (originally ordered tuna; but wasn’t available).<br/><br/>Here is the irony. The chicken chopsuey was fabulous in terms of taste and flavour and the lasagna was pretty good by Guwahati standards. HOWEVER, both the dishes that I mentioned has number of bone fragments. Mind you not bones you get in chicken pieces but fragments that are usually from neck and other tertiary cuts not used on steaks or other such dishes. My wife and I ended up getting bone fragments in each bite!!! For us this is CRIMINAL! Clearly a below the belt cost cutting strategy.<br/><br/>Not sure if I will give this place a second try; but will definitely suggest NOT to order any dish that has minced or diced or smaller pieces of chicken. It is a nightmare.<br/><br/>Also apologies for posting half eaten plates of food. I know it is gross; but I am sorry the food itself was gross!
Ivasmita Baruah
A very beautiful, small and cosy place to hangout. They play good music as well. I am quite impressed by their food and the service. I ordered CHICKEN SATAY and a cappuccino. 5/5 for the chicken satay.<br/>One of the best satay dishes i have eaten so far . The chicken was soft, juicy and flavorful served with salad and fries. It complemented the dish quite well.<br/>It had a great time in this place. Looking forward to visit again to try out other dishes in their menu.
Hebol Doley
I along with some friends happened to be here at a very unfortunate time. The coffee machine was apparently broken so we couldn't get our coffees. First disappointment! Second, they informed us so late that we finished our food and waiting for the coffees, hopeful that they would be good, turnt sour. And after we settled for teas, they weren't the greatest. Greek Pizza base was too tough, and French fries with liquid cheese we ordered were good. Overall out of 5<br/>Taste: 3<br/>Service: 3 (server was mannered, just that late information from the kitchen upset us)<br/>Value for money: 3<br/>Ambience: 4 (chic and modern)<br/>
Jita Hazarika
The Bean Journal serves the best Lasagna I have ever tasted. A little expensive place but great ambiance and a perfect place to hangout.
Nomnom24x7
One of the coolest cafes in the area. We tried their sizzlers which was one of the best we've ever had in Assam. The Lasagne was satisfactory. The pastas were less in quantity compared to the price. Overall a good place to have a good time with friends/family.
Plabit Medhi
One of a kind of place in guwahati with a peacfull and cosy ambience.food is awesome..we ordered sandwich with fries and pasta with garlic bread.price a bit high.apart from food the interior is beautiful
Guwahati_food_blogger
The service as well as the food was not good at all... worst experience ever... overpriced... A single sizzler cost a whopping ₹400 i.e., (the Lebanese Lamb) and after paying that you will still be hungry....
PLABAN PRATIM BHUYAN
I decided to check in on rainy Sunday over here with my friend and Dan was satisfied 😊 with the kind of food and service they provided.. So coming to what I ordered here was, mozzarella cheese sticks, juicy chicken meatballs, chocolate bowl, and kiwi 🥤 smoothie . I have provided the pics also. The cheese sticks were very tasty and very much cheesy and I loved them. The meat balls were not that much tasty but still better to make up your mood. Now the kiwi smoothie was not liked by me as it tasted like some syrup. The best part which everyone must must try was the chocolate bowl with a little hot chocolate. It was an ice cream with hard dark chocolate in it along with some liquid hot dark chocolate and I simply loved it's taste. So do hop in there and try these things.. I have posted the pics for you here
Priyangka Mahanta
I am very impressed by the food here.. we ordered pork stuffed balls & Francesinha & chocolate bowled ice cream ... the pork stuffed balls was yum 😋 & francesinha which a sandwich 🥪 was also good.. small place but enough place to sit and hang around with friends & the staff are responsive .. a must try place ...
June
WHT a place. You should visit if you are in Guwahati and if you have a taste in the continental / Mediterranean cuisine.<br/>Try it all. Surprise yourself 😀
Chayanika Med Hi
Not up to the mark.the quantity of the food is very less n its too costly.but the taste is good.but if you want to full your stomach then u need heavy bucks
Gautam Mohan
Lovely ambience and good service. Decided to go for Italian and ordered a pasta, and some garlic bread. Fantastic presentation and equally good food. Only issue was a large number of mosquitoes inside, apart from this it was a great experience. will definetly go back.
Munmi Choudhury
Everyone should try chocolate bowl for once atleast... Again i want to suggest mozzarella cheese sticks which is really best of everything... 😋😋😍😍😍
Juhi
The place was good to hangout with friends n the ambience was good too I have tried dumplings n drinks which was nice mostly I loved my drink that is blue lagoon for me it was perfect the taste was up to the mark
Raunaq Jain
What the Pho ? <br/><br/>Tbh what really chezzed me off about the dish was the not the lack of the dish being anything close to pho but the sheer laziness of the cafe. They basically threw in a handful of rice noodles into some pre made gray broth and served it to us. <br/><br/>For 250 the least they could do is try to make something close to an authentic pho.
Banashree Barman
Nice place to spend time with friends.. had lots of funn.. food was really tasty.. Had Spanish chicken sizzler, pizza and virgin mojito.. Staff was nice.. Nice atmosphere
Debashree Deka
Couldn't upload a pic of the food and the Ambience of the cafe because I ordered the food home.. Anyways I won't talk about the Ambience as I didn't went.But I would like to write about the food I ordered Baked fish and Marryland Chicken.. Which was not at all upto the mark..not an average though..it feels bad to write bad remark but for the betterment of the food I had to write.. the quantity was very less according to the price.A huge disappointment.. because heard a lot about this cafe but my 1st experience didn't went well.. Would like to taste some other items in future
Swatideka11
Though it's a small place yet it has a very beautiful charming ambience. Coming to food it really satisfied me, specially the tendor lemon chicken and also the grilled satay. Regarding the service I pesonally think they should increase the employee for a better and quick response to the coatumers.🤗
Deepti Agarwala
The French fries loaded with mayo cheese sauce, is a must try. Their coffee both hot and cold, is very good. Tried the strawberry smoothie and veg stroganoff, which was very tasty. Pizza was good, though the crust could be crispier.<br/>Ambience was good and staff were polite and friendly.
Zwngthie Basumatary
It's been a while I went there. The food I'd say was fine. The place is a bit small n seems congested. But you can put it up as an option to visit if you want to, considering that place overall scores an average.
Wandering Foodie
Beautiful place and extremely humble management. I had a green tea and club sandwich and both were worth the money. The ambience is very photogenic.
Sangeeta Kalita (thatcravingfoodie)
Went for a quick evening snack one day. Its a small place divided into an outdoor seating/smoking area and then there's a space inside as well. Well lit and cosy.<br/><br/>Had a chicken pizza and a dessert. The pizza we ordered was TBJ special pizza and dessert was recommended by the waiter called cookie glass shot. The pizza was not extraordinary. Very basic, thin crust pizza. Dessert was a dissapointment. Diabetically sweet. We left it halfway through.<br/><br/>They took 45 minutes to bring us just these two dishes. How dissapointing! And they said that they just had one oven to cook due to which our pizza took time.
Jnanesh Deka
I visited this restaurant during the days when it began but always forget to pen down my review for this pretty place. The location of the cafe is just really perfect. Just by the roadside this cosy cafe provides the best food in the area. The cafe is so well organised and lit up that it gives you a positive vibe to your soul. Totally neat and tidy with a modern touch, this cafe would definitely touch your heart. You may have tasted a lot of shakes all around. But very few places offer shakes like they present. They are really thick and delicious. On your arrival to the place you will not be allowed to waste your time to wait for the menu to show up. The prices are pretty decent and not on the cheaper side. The behaviour of the staff was really warm and cordial. All the items that we ordered were awesome and of different level, look and taste. Do give this place a visit and i am definitely planning to visit the place soon again. The review is definitely short but yes i want you all to just have a glimpse of the place. You will definitely not be disappointed.
Swarnankita Ray
i am very liberal n adjusting person and a food explorer and never ever wrote a negative review for any place but this time i was bound to write.. the decor of the place along with the ambiance is truly praise worthy but the food is just like a veil of continental name with the most basic n cheap food in disguise.. the potato dish which i uploaded pic was only mere boiled potato with its peels on without any sort of seasoning or even mere salt...just the plate was decorated with lettuce which also were not seasoned along with some cheese over it.. even at home wen we boil potatoes we atleast put salt over it..if we pay so huge sum just for mere boiled potatoes its useless to go to such places..even the marinara pizza was average n i m never going there back nor i m recommending any of my related person
Indrani Konwar
interior is amazingly designed very eye-catching. not too spacious but ambience is perfect to hang out with friends. staff are polite and service is good too. very good menu to try on oriental and continental flavour. taste of food is worth every penny.
Saptami Saikia
Super cute cozy little space, I must say. The best part is the lightening and the ambience, but mind you the place is too small, it can accommodate only approx 6tables i guess..<br/>The food is good.<br/>Price is reasonable.<br/>The place is easy to locate.<br/>The service is good too.<br/>Overall an average experience.
Neelakshi
I loved how friendly the staff is and also the food is top notch. The feel of the place is something beyond words,so calm and soothing. I enjoyed my time and the sizzler.
Rebika Singha
After reading many good review I visited this place n truly speaking am not disappointed to be there. Environment of this place are pretty cool n just love it.. I had sizzler which is delicious but if quantity can be increased it will be great one.. just love with desert..
Panchi
Overall an average experience. The ambience is good. Like the seating arrangements. Friendly staff. Quantity of food is very less. Taste of the food was okayish.
Rishabh Bezbaruah
The service at this place has deteriorated. Also, gone are the days when it had a quiet calm ambience. Sad to see such a good place become so bad.
Priyakshi Goswami
Small nicely-done café by the street. They have a smoking zone but no separate parking. The menu design was amusing as they stuck to the name of the place and designed the menu in the shape of a journal. The staff was helpful and active. The food was good, whatever we had tried. Most of the items are assortments/platters which is quite favourable for customers, although many items we asked for weren't available. Hope to visit the place again someday.
Cindrella Kashyap
This place looks really pretty. The interiors are great and the colours are bright and chic.<br/>The price is a tiny bit on the higher side but I really loved the taste.<br/>Ordered chicken lasagna, fried chicken dimsums and latte.<br/>The lasagna had a good amount of cheese and the chicken and everything was really well balanced.<br/>The dimsums were really really good. They were definitely one the best ones I have ever tasted. And I loved the sweet and spicy sauce along with them.<br/>Would definitely like to pay a visit again and try more items from their menu.
Shreya Choudhury
The food and Ambience is amazing. The menu has a huge variety to choose from.<br/>The food, is genuinely amazing and the staff is quite friendly.
Adarsh Raj
Amazing place. Surely an underrated cafe in the city. A must visit place. Clean and hygienic. Good staff and fast service. Cool hangout place for all type of audience. Ambiance is great with nice lightings
Ashmita Vaidya
This place deserves a visit. Interior decorations- 5 star.<br/>Food quality- 5 star. Staffs behaviour- 5star. Prices are though high but its worth the food they serve. And they dont take much time also to serve your dishes.
Pratiksha Sharma
The food is great, less oil, perfect taste. I ordered a vegetable crouquette, mocha brownie and one chicken dish, none of which failed to impress my taste centre. I was so glad to finally find one cafe with great veg cuisine. The service was absolutely on time and I might say, before that. Very appealing interiors. Very polite service. I could go on and on but rating them to the fullest shall do the rest of the job! Thank you for the great experience. ❤️
Sweta Biswas
Ambience is really good. The staffs are very well mannered and well behaved. The food is also good too. It's a nice place for hangout with friends.
Raj Bhuyan
Great ambience and very diverse menu.  The Open Burger is a must try.  We loved this place!! We have yet to have found a place to compare in all of Guwahati.
Niharika Saikia

Chao Paul Borpatra Gohain
Simple n sexy place to be. Food is really good. Tried pork steak and i fell in love with it. Interior is quite awesome. Recommend all for a must visit.
Chandan Jyoti Choudhury
First of all the ambience is great. .loved the way menu is being presented, in a "journal" manner, mentioning details of each dish. .adequate pricing. .so, a must a visit cafe cum restaurant. .
Raktim Engti
Nice place to hang out with friends and family. The food served is fresh with a good taste of food. But the quantity of the food is little less compared to the price I suppose. Thats the only demerit I found. Othsrwise the cafe is very impressive, alongwith good interiors and everything.
@boss_panda22
Had my post birthday celebration at this place.... Was a good experience but not at its best, though!<br/>The prices were too high from the normal cafe rates, talking about the food it was just above the average margin....
Twinkling Star
The food was awesome.. and service was good too... I liked the ambience.. low music ..cosy place... I have given 4 stars coz there is always room for improvement... Going again... 😃❤️
Jyoti_singh
Awesome place to hangout... A pizza lover should definitely visit this place.. because I personally love this place... Interior was good.. ❤️😍
Papia Bhadra Roy
The cafe is little yet very soothing place to be and spent tym with your dear ones..service was good,staffs were polite and generous what I extremely loved is the food that we orderd and their taste that turned out was super delicious got one glass cookie shot ,guys do try this its mouth watering you will like to have it again and again,veg dimsums fried were served very hot,also the star food was lasagne its alluring and hell tasty their menu actually does justice also their presentation was on top.
Anurag Adhikary
Ordered Mediterranean burger,chicken steak and machiatto. Burger was okayish,steak was small in portion with the garlic breads smaller than rusk biscuits and the machiatto coffee which was supposed to be flavoured with chocolate had more of a flavour of bournvita. Decent anyways. Average overall or maybe i was expecting more.
Priyanki Nanu Ku-Koi
Am soooo satisfied.. i'll recommend to visit this place. U'll get a cozy ambience with delicious food. The staff is so friendly n well mannered.
Ruchika Phukan
One if the best cafes in the city. The ambience was cosy, the food was great. The servers were very polite and service was quite fast. I would surely visit the place again.
Debasish & Raginee
◆Really disappointed with what we were served as you all can see in the picture,...<br/>.<br/>Also we really got pissed and felt being cheated when they denied the 15% off they gave us from the GUEST LOYALTY PROGRAM, DISCOUNT CARD during our last visit (Take a look at our Stories), which clearly had validity till 31st of December.. The staff were also not at all cooperative and had no explanation for the exact reason of the cancellation (of the offer)...<br/>.<br/>◆Btw, in the positive side we also ordered The Chocolate bowl, a Burger (Chaddar Cheese) and a Mixed sauce Penne Pasta which honestly tasted quite decent... Overall a weirdly sore experience!!<br/>Follow us on Instagram at @food_in_a_bowl
Antara Khaund
I walked in to The Bean Journal and was instantly taken by the cosy ambience. It's a nice little place to spend an evening in, over a cup of coffee. The menu was diverse, to say the least, as it had dishes from varying cuisines. First up came the lemon chicken which was cooked well and with flavour, however it did not have any essence of the lemon, whatsoever. The hasselback potatoes weren't bad, although they required a lot more of cheese and sour cream to balance the flavour. Of the mains, the gnocchi wasn't cooked as well as it should have been, it was hard and just appeared as a lump of dough sans any filling inside. The white sauce with it, however, despite the irregular consistency, tasted quite good. Finally the chicken parmigiana did not have enough cheese, but the marinara sauce was well done. On the whole, it was a good attempt with all the dishes and I believe a second visit would be on the cards to see if there has been any redemption. The point where this place lost out is in terms of its service, which was terrible, to say the least. A little attention here and there would go a long way.
Bristi Sonowal
The ambience n the decor of the place is good but the quantity and the price of the food did not match at all.Though the food tasted good in was served in very small proportion.<br/>Ordered Chicken Maryland and lasagna for main course.The chicken Maryland was very creamy and tasted good.But the lasagna was too cheesy for me.<br/>Also in dessert we ordered chocolate bowl.It was served in a glass .This presentation of the chocolate bowl disappointed me a little as I was expecting it in a plate as shown in the zomato pictures.<br/>I liked the service of the place.The waiters were polite and well mannered.The food was served quickly also.
Deepanka Bora
I liked the ambience and the foods are tasty. The menu is presentable. Location wise ok . Interior is simple but uniquely made it . Over all it was nice place for the hangout purpose.
Himakshi Bagaria
Decent place to sit and hang out with friends. Soup and salads are better than the shakes and sandwiches! You can sit in or out, either was the sitting arrangements are simple yet comfortable.
Chandramita
Visited bean journal on 27 october.<br/>Small yet good interiors and well maintained.<br/>I ordered Mediterranean spicy burger which was really spicy and great in taste.<br/>Coffee and latte was okay<br/>Tuna mayo sandwich was yumm the tuna fish was well mashed.<br/>Grilled cheese rolls amount was good .
NABAJYOTI SARMA
Lovely ambience and delicious dishes. Pork ribs with barbeque sauces is simply wow and most recommended item. Other items are equally good..
Dipta Kantha Bora
Interior of the restaurant is nice. But foods are so expensive and not that tasty. We tried some dishes and we were really not satisfied with the food quality.
Tanisha TasneEm
Well, 5 stars to this place for its tasty Food. The environment is quite nice. And the food as I said its way too good. The price of few many items are quite affordable. For its taste, it's justified.The cheese sticks (I forgot the actual name) is way too cheesy and tasty and quick affordable snack. I love it! The price of the pasta, I believe could have been little less. As the other items are quite affordable and good. So the price of the pasta should also go abit down too. Overall,<br/>My experience there has always been wonderful.<br/><br/>
Arpita
A calm and beautifully decorated cafe. Ordered fruit punch, kiwi smoothie and sangria, pork steak, chicken steak, hassle back with potatoes, and Greek pizza. The quantity for chicken steak wasn't upto the mark seeing the price of the item and the hassle back with potatoes could have been better. Nevertheless, had a lovely evening with my friends.
Mamon Dutta
The sizzler was one of the most disappointing dishes I've ever had anywhere lol. The grilled open burger was delicious. The creamy mocha brownie, though overpriced, is worth a try because it looks and tastes good.<br/><br/>Food: 3/5.<br/>Everything else: 4.5/5.<br/><br/>
Jyotirmoy Das
Quite a few cafes have popped around my home, so trying them one by one. Its located from a walking distance so dropped in a rainy evening to catch up with an old friend. Sitting area is divided by a glass wall into two zones which makes it easy to choose where to sit if the talks get loud with a group. We sat for nearly 2.5hrs as the interior ambience was very assistive in having a nice conversation.<br/><br/>We ordered cappuccinos, lemon teas, fries & tried out the corn dishes. The servers were attentive & service is pretty quick. The quality & taste of the food and beverages were quite good. Its not an extraordinary nor a let down experience and that is where it actually shines. We had a great time chatting, eating, drinking and catching up without any noticeable shortcomings. Its one thing to do a few things in the best way possible while failing in other parts & quite another to be just good in all the areas, which this cafe is. Its definitely on my repeat visit list. <br/><br/>Summarizing:<br/><br/>Pros:<br/>+ Food Quality & Taste<br/>+ Reasonable Pricing<br/>+ Location & Ambience<br/>+ Fast Service<br/>+ Clean Washroom (big plus)<br/><br/>Cons:<br/>Nothing major so I’ll nitpick.<br/>- Playlist (songs on repeat >.
Bikash Dhal
Ambience of this place is nice , but staff needed to be educated to take advice from customers , Ordered cappuccino it was watery . I told the waiter but he was laughing. With bad experience with coffee didn't ordered anything. For me coffee lovers should stay out of this place
Nandita Das
One of the most popular cafe from the town. Heard a lot about this place, so decided to visit it once. And to my expectation, I find the place very peaceful, amazing interior, good music and everything was on except the food. Can improve with their quantities and taste!!
Nashiya Afshan
I'm in love with this place. The food is amazing. One of ""the best" cafe in the city. Ordered lasagna, Lebanese lamb sizzler, choco frappe, fries, the bean journal special dessert, maryland chicken and brownie. The food was up to the mark and I had a great feast. Worth recommending it to others. Believe me or not!
Adiron Baruah
The Bean Journal has bèen a new found for me and has never dissapointed ever since. Been there a few times and now i feel i can be judgemental. The best about this place is good food and excellent service. The Chicken Maryland together with the smooties are must try. Cheers to the management for the urban rustic decor and for cleanliness.
Vivek Choudhary
Not a nice place. Taste is below average . There was two ants crawling on my plate . The burger was the most horrible burger ever had in my life. Also the smoothie i ordered was the worst smoothie ever . WORST EXPERIENCE
Prakhenjit Barman
A great place to have coffee and true mediterranean food. Also great to find a wonderful setting with pine wood which gives the feeling of some place in shillong. Service is also good.. A placr to spend time with both friends and family.. A must try for people who have not been there till now. We had pork ribs and chicken pasta.
Kundan Roy
A good cafe to have a good time with frnds.had pina colada,white sauce pasta and pizza.pizza was bad...but i liked the pasta and the pina colada drink...the ambience was good although the place is small.service was average
Anindya Bikas Dutta
Well, I have been here twice and I think it is recommendable to anyone heading out for a good meal and some good time.<br/>The interiors are posh and well-maintained- that's the first when they blow your mind. Thumbs up to you guys.<br/>Food- I haven't tried the oriental dishes as of yet but the Mediterranean menu promises a lot and delivers too. We had Lasagna- a bit mild on taste but good, and The TBJ special Pizza- this was nice and colorful too! As for the drinks, the Fresh Lime Soda wasn't quite upto the mark but the Cold Joe was awesome. For desserts, we tried The Cookie Shot and The Chocolate Bowl- both equally delightful and should be tried.<br/>Service- Well, it was quick and amiable, so there is little regret here.<br/>Cheers to you, guys!
Nibedita Upadhyai
M in love with the playlist of this place... the ambience and set up is quite cozy and comfortable... the service and staff is great.. the food was within budget. Overall a good place to chill with your friends or loved ones😎😍
Sweta Mahanta
We ordered Hakka noodles, chicken lasagna , pan fried Momo, chicken pasta and bread.<br/>The lasagna was really delicious. Momo was bad. Hakka noodles was okay. Pasta was good too.
Rohan Sen
We went there with my friends. The ambience was great and the food was superb. Just felt that the quantity was a bit less. Overall a must visit if you want to try continental food.
Sandipan Barthakur
Located diagonally opposite to the Ugratara Mandir, this place came up sometime back and is a hit with the masses. With a perfect cosy ambience, calm and peaceful vibe, the place is perfect for spending some quality time. You can indulge in conversations while sipping on coffee or have your pick from the varied menu. The ambience and decor is beautiful - astutely done seating arrangements, both indoor and outdoor completes the setting. Go for it, if you want to indulge in serenity.

Food was lovely and so was the ambience.The staff needs proper training to attend tables though.they were couteous but was disappointed coz had to keep asking for water....Either they have a shortage of drinking water there or glasses arnt available ..either way ..that was d only thing which needs to be looked after..<br/>else i am sure willb visiting it again for the food..👍

One of the best place for hangout with friends. Certainly a great ambience. Also a separate smoking area is there. We trieded grilled chicken burger and the Kung Pao chicken there which was okay. The only reason I'm deducting 1 star is because of the taste of the food. Otherwise everything thing else is perfect 🍷

A very cozy place to be , staffs and services are good as well.about food, we ordered a pork Steak, lasagna, khao pad we also ordered two drinks one is pina colada and another one was blue lagoon... The pork was very chewy and hard the price is okay comparing with the quality and quantity of the food.

The reason i have given it 3 stars is completely based on the ambience, the concept of the place and with a sole promise to never come here again. First of all, the food was confusing.<br/>Like VERY confusing.<br/>We ordered a veg burger. A simple, veg burger. And when the word "Burger" comes in, in the most sanest of sense, three things are definitely there- buns , patty and additional choices according to taste.<br/>If you are still confused, here's the emoji 🍔<br/>What WE got, was a big, oddly-rounded smothered in melted cheese thingy with fries on the side and coleslaw(i hope that was coleslaw) on our plates. On closer inspection, I saw no patty.<br/>Like what?😱. A burger with no patty?<br/>Yeah shocking.<br/>And on asking the waiter about it, he was confused too. So he went inside, asked the chef and returned back saying that the patty was inside. Maybe they are taking an innovative approach to the burger i thought but i was SOOOO wrong.<br/>What I got was a melted cheese covered, large bun that was filled with some kind of a oniony-cheesy filling that somehow had A VERY close resemblance to Lays onion and cheese flavored chips yet was so confusing to a whole new level.<br/>It was NOooooooo burger.<br/>No. Na-uh. Nada. Not At All.<br/>The flavour was really, really, really rich that after two bites, you are done. The slaw was okay. The French fries was the only thing that I liked out of that whole disaster served.<br/>The drinks, I would say it was good. The dessert was also fine.<br/>The service was okay-ish i guess? I mean there were not that many people and it was also not that busy, still it took a good time to get our orders.<br/>Points for the ambience though and the way they decorated the place.<br/>Overall, you can give it a try and judge it for yourself. After all, to each his own. Cheers.

The setting was beautiful. But the food didn't tasted that good as I thought it would be. Ordered a pizza, iced tea, lemonade and mozarella sticks. A bit overpriced if looked at the quantity. The pizza base felt like a bread topped with cheese and other toppings.

What's good in this place- only the ambience.<br/><br/>What's not good- server's behaviour, food.<br/><br/>Tried- veg greek pizza(horrendous with no seasoning) , chocolate cup shot( glue type chocolate with thick cover).<br/><br/># a vegetarian.

It's all about quality of life and finding a happy balance between work and friends and family.<br/><br/>Try the salad, coffee & pasta.<br/>Good thing among many.

The food is great, so is the ambience. It may be a little overpriced but the taste it delivers makes it worth every penny spent. The only thing I found a little weird was that they were charging extra for packing which is barely found elsewhere.

Ordered pork steak ( comes with garlic bread etc )<br/>Got a BURGER PATTY instead! A steak is big chunk of meat sliced across the bone ( some may not have the bone ). i asked the waiter how long would the steak take to get ready , he replied 10mins, so I became skeptical already, but I presumed maybe they have it ready already. A steak is usually grilled , sometimes pan fried... What I got what something else entirely. Veggies were basically 3 vegetables.. the carmelized apples were so poor I didn't even eat them.. only good was that the garlic bread tasted nice!<br/>Please don't market your minced meat patty as "steak" .<br/>Really disappointed.

This place is so beautiful. It's got some really eye pleasing decorations .. Coming to the food we ordered stuffed pork balls , grilled chicken open burger , chicken mayo sandwich . All of them were delicious . The burger and sandwich is served along with fries and salad . Didn't like the salad though. Burger is sufficient for one person .<br/>Great ambience ..

Visited the cafe today, the set up and ambience was awesome, different from existing cafes of Guwahati.<br/><br/>Coming to the service, we were dissappointed as it being a full running restaurant no serving was done and when asked to serve, a taunting tantrum was thrown upon that it is a Self SERVING Restaurant, which it isn't. So the servers need to go for some basics hospitality classes.<br/><br/>Finally - The Food. I ordered a choupsey which was indeed nice and different. So thumbs up 👍but again the So called speciality Freak Shake failed to impress us as it was purely tasteless and it contained more water than milk,which gave a watery feeling rather than of a shake.<br/><br/>So its a mixture of pros and cons. But please say no to the freak shake. We also ordered that by reading the tag "Speciality" but trust me it isnt.

I went to this place after some recommendation by a friend. It's a nice choice for relaxing and chilling out. The 'Pad krapow moo saap' is a quite pleasant Thai dish. But the chopsuey wasn't crispy enough and felt more like some gravy noodles. Though the price is little high but the quantity served makes up for it.
