My all time favourite place. Shanti Da is a sweetheart . Ginger honey tea and chicken platter. It's a perfect place for adda and evening hangouts.
The ambiance is mind blowing .... a bookshop containing good collection of Bengali legendary authors, feluda theme everywhere, friendly staff ... just awesome. The food is very good. Especially the Mexican spicy hot chocolate and chicken steak
We ordered capachino, cold coffee and brownie.The taste of the cold coffee was too good. A ideal place for hangout with friends.
Nice decor 👌
Overall ratings: 4/5
We ordered lemon honey tea and cold coffee to start with...the tea was good bt the taste of the coffee was very pale without any taste...then we ordered fish fry and fish finger...both of them were good nd the tartar sauce served with that was awesome too...i regularly visit here and i would love to visit again and again!!
The breakfast platter is delicious. Had also tried the sandwiches which were equally good. A good affordable breakfast place
This place has a lively vibe. The art, decor, ambience everything has a bengali touch. If you are pure bong and a Feluda fan then you must try this place. It's a nice place to spend you evening with friends. A place that worth a try!!
A nice place for food lovers... Ideal place for hangouts with friends. Good food quality, nice decor.
But One thing we dislike that is Air-conditioners are not working properly may be it is for too much crowd.
This place gives out soulful vibes through its art decor and artsy look. When I first went to this cafe, It was an amazing experience with friends. It has now become a tradition for me to visit there. I love to have the meat platter with earl grey. They have a wide variety of tea and coffee menu which is a plus point. You can read and work here. The outer space is one of the main attraction to chill out with friends. I am missing it today so much that I came back here to write the review. #seeyousoon #abarbaithak
Food is awesome. You can just be there, read a book, sip into coffee and unwind. If you are going there for the first time, try the meat platter and drinks. If you are not a fan of experimental menu, don't try Ghuntghutiya drink. Affordable price point.
P.s, the staff can behave a bit rude, due to the rush.

Ambiance really great to be with the crowd was awesome Food delivery was fast the table boy or the people taking orders could have been more courteous shakes were good to go with but the platter seemed to blow up our mind with this great taste
Meat ball platter
Chicken stuffed with olives and potato
Shakes were good to go with
We went there on a saturday evening during unlock phase.Sanitization protocol is followed by all the staffs and the customers.We went upstairs as there were some other guys sitting in the downstairs. So we were told to maintain the social distance. They have a large variety of snacks, teas and pastries. This is situated just at the opposite by lane of jodhpur park where the durga puja is held. Behind lane of palli mangal samiti or eedf. We order a non veg platter, a smoked barbeque sandwich and an assam flavoured tea. Everything was good. The non veg platter had a poached egg, salami, ham, garlic bread, sausage and some mayonese. The barbeque sandwch was very different than other regular sandwiches.It had a smoky taste in it.It had some french fries with it.French fries are mostly loved by all.Coming to the assam tea, it was very nice. We really enjoyed the meal there.The staffs were polite and well behaved.The ambience is classy. Recommending this place for its ambience and good food.
•This place has an aesthetic touch to it.
The ambience was so attractive.
•There were a lot of books. If you are bookworm you will love this place.
•Apart from food you can also purchase things like coffee mugs and all.
•I had ordered chicken peri peri pizza and a cappuccino.
• I loved the pizza so much.
•And another thing i want to add is that the service and the staffs were so nice and well behaved.

This has been one of the OG book cafes in Kolkata. Situated in Jadavpur, this place gives off a strong Bengali vibe with all its collection of books, cinema posters, vintage decor and an old typewriter.
There are pretty and photo worthy corners all over the place and the slightly elevated 1st floor gives off a heritage house feeling.
But there are a few negatives that cannot be ignored,
1. The place is lacking maintenance, the furniture is worn out and chair-tables are tripping.
2. Service is really slow. Our simple cappuccino came about 25 minutes later and the pizza took forever.
3. The service is sloppy and looking closely this place is pretty dusty now.
The food was okay and nothing mention worthy. Please look at the maintenance part as that is the priority here.
Delicious delicacy of food the rice one taste was different but with really a good combination and the fish grill was also good..... drinks were filling also if u have a sweet tooth much try 👍🏻
The food was very good and the quality is excellent. The place has a nice ambiance. Price point is in the middle. It was quite crowded on a weekday evening. The place has a very amicable vibe to it. It boasts a collection of books on its shelves. One can read and work while spending time with one's friends and family while enjoying their fantastic menu.

Good place to hangout. One of the famous cafe in south Kolkata. Am visited this place recently. They have both inside and outside sitting area. They have upstair sitting area also but it’s for group only informed me by their one of staff.
🌿Food is delicious but not pocket friendly
🌿Ambience is homely like there Cafe Name
🌿Staffs are good but should be more polite.
🌿All over experience is good.
We chanced upon Abar Baithak while looking for a cafe near South City Mall. The food was really good and was totally approved by my kid. Ambience was good with books to read while waiting for the food. Much recommended.
Really a great place to enjoy food with adda. Its more of a get together vibe here with some good collection of bengali and english books. The place is spacious also with 2 storey building. Food also is really good. Overall the atmosphere is good.
This is one of my favourite cafes in kolkata. I can't remember how many times I went there. If you love Feluda you'll love this place too because this is a Feluda themed cafe. And the food is also amazing yet budget friendly.
Both outdoor and indoor sitting is available. You can also read some books while enjoying your coffee.
Highly recommended!!!!!
It's a pleasant and quaint cafe with great retro and aesthetic interior, has books that go great with your cup of joe. Has outdoor and indoor seating, you can smoke outside while enjoying your beverages and food. I sat on the first floor, the service was a bit late, the servers weren't making as many rounds as they should have been but it was understandable as it was quite busy there (they were very polite and sweet). The cafe is not all that expensive if you're planning on splitting the bill, if you're going alone then it can cost you around 200-400/-. We had the thin crust barbeque chicken sausage pizza and it was a 3.5/5, the pizza had ample toppings but lacked in taste. The barbeque flavour wasn't there it was quite bland. The place is comfortable and cozy. It's a fully cushioned big diwan kind of seating with few tables also there (only on the first floor). All things considered I had a decent experience and would visit again.
I love this particular place totally because of it's theme,ambience and some particular dishes..
Some of them are in frame -
All Meat Platter ( Chicken sausages, Chicken salami, Pork Ham Bacon, Egg Poach and Cheese Toast)
Chicken Platter ( Chicken sausages, Chicken salami, Chicken Ham, Egg Poach and Cheese Toast)
Americano
Cappuccino
Moccachino
This is a nice place. The Ambience was good. I specially liked their sitting arrangement of th first floor. The book collections they have is really very good. The food we had was also very good, we tried some fish fingers, fish fry and a virgin mojito, all of them was really very good.
