Review The Chaiwala - Kolkata (Calcutta)

Dreaming Wizard
Very amazing place to hang out both with friends and alone. Food is very affordable and really tasty. Have been there earlier too and the experience was great. This time too, it was amazing. The ambience is very cozy and nice. Staff members are also very hospitable. Do recommend you to visit here if you're in the area.

It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Foods are also amazing. Specially Choco frappe. Tried a pizza which was also good in taste. Staff are friendly and service was good.
Debasmita Das
Loved the peach iced tea,and garlic bread . But cold coffee was too sweet, served at normal temperature and service was slow. Ambience is lovely and aesthetic. Drinks are pocket friendly. Amicable staffs. Overall good experience in a pocket friendly price.

Food quantity and quality are both equally good... Choco cake Frappe is a must try there. There's a little space crunch problem. Other than that the ambience is also peaceful.
Saurav Modak
The place could do with more space given the crowd that arrive here. I'd suggest a few more couple tables. The service was adequate. Low on staff when I visited. Hopefully that's not the case everyday. The food is oh-so-good! I was a bit skeptical with the prices, but no matter. It was a good investment especially on the pasta and the fish fries that we ordered. I'd recommend visiting this place for the iced teas.

Small cafe but perfectly well decorated. Beautiful Ambience. Sittings are themed like park benches. I recommend this place for morning peoples, who go for morning walk or like that. Perfect for friends, Couples.
Nafisa Ali
Gives you a cozy yet energetic vibe . Loved going there . Would definitely visit soon . Every dish was delicious.

My go to cafe for the past 3 years. The Chaiwala has always been my favourite being just 20mins from my home. Coming to food : Do try their pasta, pizza, bhetki fish fry and chicken wings. Use swiggy dineout for 10-15% extra discount. Service sometimes becomes slow when it remains understaffed. 20-25mins for a dish to serve. Good for a quick meetup :)
Sankalan Biswas
Great food, great prices. Would recommend the buffalo wings and the waffles. Nice little place tucked in a small lane in tollygunge. Pretty nice for hanging out with friends or for dates.

Beginning from the ambience and food to the staff behaviour, the cafe is at its best. The place has a perfect aesthetic decor with soothing vibes of a cafeteria. The hospitality is well managed and the staffs are were courteous. Everything is kept unique and adds to the positive rating of this place. I'm in love with this cafe. The beverages are amazing. They have the perfect sweetness and tangy flavour. The snacks and dishes are delicious. Noteworthy to say the serving style is splendid and the food presentation is alluring. Proper hygiene is maintained and the place is sanitized. The staffs were wearing masks and gloves. Apart from these, the cost of the food is totally reasonable and tastes up to the mark✨. We ordered for honey glazed chicken BBQ wings, cheese chicken sandwich, Oreo frappe and non-virgin Mojito. They have a good music going on with cafe vibe, maintaining the decorum. You must visit this cafe if you love going to themed cafeterias. Its great for a date or a friend's meetup. Aesthetic cafe, affordable and good food! I highly recommend 'The Chaiwala'.

Place is quite small compare to other cafes but well decorated place to spend quality times with friends and family. Many options to choose from, food wise. Pocket friendly. The staff behavior was good but expect much more professionalism from them. We ordered Oreo Frappe (5/5) (Perfect drink to spice the mood). french fries (4.5/5) cheese sandwich (4/5) spanish omelette (2/5) (not that much tasty and also a bit over priced) choco walnut pot cake(3/5)(The taste could be much better but the quantity is sufficient for 2 person) Food Decoration is very good.The place is affordable and can be visited for casual hangouts.My attention were drawn by the pair of salt-and-pepper shakers on our table, custom made and shaped like a pair of logs. Overall my verdict is that The Chaiwala is a decent place to indulge in some fresh and flavoursome cafe food and goodies. Some item may disappoint, and also staff behaviour but others totally make up for it.
Beåuty Raj
Finally visited this place. Loved the ambience and the interiors. The staff were very friendly. The burgers were just perfect. The soy honey chicken wings were finger licking. Perfect place for some eve adda with friends with light music and awesome food. Will definitely want to visit it again. A � to the guys who are running this place.

Sankhadeep Saha
A cosy place in da heart of a busy place..this place is a revelation amidst chaos.. Reasonable pricing..homely environment and witty decor..the place speaks for itself.. The only recommendation is introducing "bhare cha" and that too within 20-25 bucks price range.. Only den it would be a proper tribute to the Kolkata chaiwala.. and would justify the name and essence of the place..
Amrita Guha
The place is nice with a good ambience and pocket friendly food price. The staffs are really nice and polite and provides good service. I would recommend this place for people who wants to have a quick bite and spend a good tine with friends and family.
Hemon Ghosh
The chicken krunch was lip-smacking, and the mojito was shizz. One of the best and funkiest cafes in tollygunje, worth visiting this wonderfully decorated place. Definitely gave me the goodvibes. ����
Priyanka Piu
Maast place for hangout with lods of food fun...must visit ..Nd abt the staff...they r really very kind ...too good food with too good ambiance..
Prattusha Nath
One of the best cafes I have been till date. Try going there on friday evenings because they arrange for a stand up comedy show by wonderful young people. Very well decorated and you can feel a tinge of the funkiness, to be precise the presence of colourful bottles, painted kettles and huge clocks made it very interesting to look at. Food and service was excellent. We ordered for a sandwich, a grilled burger, french fries and an icecream scoop. The best part is that the food is inclusive of tax and very pocket friendly. Definitely worth visiting. �

Yesterday was my first time at #TheChaiwala. Learnt about it from the newspaper. Loved the ambience! #ChocolateSmoothie, #ColdChickenSalad and #ChickenPopcorn were our orders. We were famished and I devoured the food!! Loved it! The best part is it is at a walking distance from my place. And, am happily ditching my old #addajoint for #TheChaiwala. P.S. Indian songs would have added the missing charm! Folks to be precise!!
Tannu Agarwal
Dear owner of the cafe If you are reading this review then lemme tell you that what ever you are today is because of your customers and what ever you will be tomorrow because of your reputation of the same cafe.So stop being in so attitude that you are the only one person in Kolkata who owns a cafe. How ever you will be infront of your staffs the same way they will also be behind you. Onethk i must tell yu(the owner) that yu must learn from ur staff how to treat customers..
Debarati Roy Mitra
loved the food the ambience and the choice of music. the staff was really warm. absolutely recommending it to everyone looking for some good experience �

মোটিভেশনের জন্য ইউটিউব এর কি দরকার? মন খারাপের জন্য দাওয়াই এর-ও প্রয়োজন কই? যখন ফ্রীতে মোটিভেশন পাওয়া যায়; না, খাবারটা ফ্রী না, কিন্তু প্রত্যেকটা ডিশ ডিলিশিয়াস, আঙুল চেটে নিতে ইচ্ছে করবে। কিন্তু প্লিস চাটবেন না, আর চাটলেও হাত ধোয়ার অজুহাতে একবার বাথরুমটা ঘুরে আসবেন। বাথরুমেই পাবেন গীতার সারাংশটা। সত্যিই তো, মন খারাপ, ফ্রাসটেসন থাকতেই পারে, কিন্ত অ্যাতো ভালো খাবার আর আরো ভালো সার্ভিস র পর ওই মনখারাপগুলোকে বরং ফ্লাস করে, ড্রিম-হোপগুলোকে নিজের কাছেই রাখুন সযত্নে। আর রেখে দিন এক্স-এর সোয়েটারটা-ও, আর পুরোনো ফোনটাও, বরং ফোন করে সোয়াটারটা ফেরত দেওয়ার অজুহাতে না হয় একবার ঘুরেই আসুন না "চায়-ওয়ালা"।

There are several outlets of the chaiwala at Hatibagan, Southern Avenue and Tollygunge.<br/><br/>🟢 AMBIENCE: The ambience of this place is good and quite. But price is little high but taste of the food is yum yum as well as the presentation.Its also good for couples, quite place so will get to spend some quality time. Place is small , cozy and quiet.<br/><br/>🟢WE TRIED---<br/> ✨ Raspberry tea<br/> ✨ Burger 🍔 with🍟 fries<br/><br/>Must visit for some hangout with friends or with ur lover😉
Subhosree Marick
Have been to both the outlets at Southern Avenue and Tollygunge. Good place for couples as it is quite and you will get to spend quality time too. Food is also good and you won't burn a whole in your pocket. Small and cozy inside with good ambience.
Sudeshna Sar
Definitely try pasta here..with coffee and ofcourse the sandwich.. lovely ambiance.. great service..

I have visited Chaiwala quite a few times, the ambience is very good and pleasant, staff behaviour is also friendly. I ordered 1 double Chco-chip frappe, 1 oreo frappe, 1 Honey BBQ Wings, 1 Chicken white sauce penne and 1 Nutella burst pan cake. Both the frappes were not bad not good also. Overpriced on the basis of taste, but the three main dishes were very good and tasty. Honey BBQ wing was quite differently delicious, chicken white sauce penne was quite good too along with the quantity. Two people can easily feed on it snd last but not the least the nutella burst pan cake was quite delicious and heavy. As a chocolate fan I can suggest this dish to be my personal favourite. Overall experience was quite good. Food was tasty, though a bit pricy.
Ankit Das
The ambience of this place is very nice. But price are really high, not much pocket friendly and taste of the food is satisfactory but their presentation is top notch
Debangana Dey
My one of the favorite cafe ❤<br/>I love the ambience of this place so much.. And their foods are also extremely good. I have visited this place several times and I would love to visit this place again and again.. You can easily get to this place with your friends and spend a beautiful time.. <br/><br/>And moreover in this lockdown period they are maintaining high precautions.

The Chaiwala, Tollygunge WAS one of my favorite places in town to have a nice hot cup of chai. Their ‘Chaiwala Special’ chaa which came with complimentary rusk biscuits, I believed had the most amazing aroma and the perfect blend of milk and sugar to kick away your Monday blues.<br/>We’ve visited this place multiple times pre lockdown and have always had a good time, hence my friend and I decided to go down to this place to have our favorite tea recently as we got a chance to step out of our house for some work and I must say, we were thoroughly disappointed.<br/>(Not just with the tea)<br/><br/>Okay, so this is how things went on<br/>At the entrance, after the usual thermal check and applying sanitizers on our palms, the lady asked us to close our eyes. To our not so pleasant surprise, she sprayed Savlon on our clothes and I wouldn’t be exaggerating if I say, we literally were bathed in it from our upper to the lower half of our body.<br/>I understand these aren’t usual times and this could be termed as ‘precautions’ but, consent.<br/>We should have been informed and asked before doing the same, I might just have my own reservations about applying antiseptic on my clothes.<br/><br/>What was contrastingly weird, is the fact that they circulated the same sheet of paper on every table for the online menu, doesn’t that spoil the whole bathing purpose?<br/>Nevertheless, we ordered what we came here for, but alas, the taste wasn’t the same anymore. It tasted too milky and didn’t have the same smell or the taste that it used to have.<br/>After a while, we ordered 2 more cups of it, which were slightly better but still wasn’t close to how it used to be.<br/>Also, there were no rusk biscuits this time.<br/>(Okay, cost-cutting. Accepted)<br/><br/>Now comes the billing part.<br/>In the bill, they’ve added a ‘COVID Special Service Charge’ of Rs. 50. <br/>Again, I know these are difficult times but a mandatory Rs. 50 on every bill isn’t something that could be justified here.<br/>The lady came in with the pin pad machine and asked me to insert the card for the payment which makes me touch the pin pad(if hygiene is what they’re looking for) and in the end, we were asked to dump our plates and glasses inside the garbage bag while leaving.<br/><br/>The point here is, Rs. 50 might not be that big of an amount, but I couldn’t find an inch of the service aspect of the ‘service charge’ that was mandatorily levied on our bill.<br/>It would have been great if they justified the amount.<br/><br/>Being generous in giving it 3 stars for this experience, a 2.5 would have been perfect
Ritusree Raha
I have visited here many times but after lockdown it's my first time i'have visited. They are maintaining every safety measurer as per the govn. Clean and calm ambience. But as per their portions they should reduce the price li'l bit.. Otherwise everything is good. Staff behaviours are also appreciable. Overall good experience except the price..
Nayana Saha
Well i visited this cafe few mnths back and really loved the ambience.The cafe seemed bit small but cosy, distinctive& idiosyncratic wooden interior😍😍In and out sitting available. So Ordered Chicken Schezwan Penne Pasta worth Rs175 and for coffee paid Rs150 (excluding GST). Well-Maintained quality and quantity✔✔ The perfect balance of flavours in penne was really appetizing😍😍 .. 5stars seemed less to demonstrate my emotions towards this cafe☺☺.. Would definately recommend my viewers💯✌. Worth Your Penne♥️♥️

Few months ago visited this cosy cafe which is located near tollygunj. <br/><br/>It's a small but beautiful cafe with a seating capacity of 16-20.<br/><br/>We ordered Cheese sandwich ₹90 <br/><br/>Honey Bbq wings ₹190.<br/><br/>The items were superb.
Nisha Chatterjee
Perfect place to go over a coffee date with your loved ones, the food was good I would recommend to order the special chaiwala coffee it's just awesome
Rikita Mohanty
An absolutely lovely place to spend time.<br/>We ordered mixed sauce penne pasta chicken, white sauce pasta-penne veg, spicy cheese sandwich, oh! Oreo and dark desire.<br/>My personal favourites: <br/>||Mixed sauce penne pasta chicken||<br/>Amazing taste, full of chicken great sauce. In short: Perfect.<br/>||Dark desire||<br/>If you are a chocolate lover, you will definitely love it. The dark chocolate ice cream with chunks of chocochip is just amazing.<br/>Also, very affordable. <br/>Amazing ✨
Titli Mukherjee
If you want snaky items withing pocket friendly amount visit the place with full of activities that u get to see. Try out the place.

This restaurant is really a gem in this area. Even I would like to say that among all the cafes, this is one of the best. Ambience was quite good. The behaviour of the staffs were so friendly. Come to the main point, food. Trust me, it is just woowwwww!!! I think I have tasted the best choco walnut pot cake in this place and it is huge, easily can eat by 2-3 persons. Along with that, the sandwich was also good in taste. Compare to the food and their quality, I would say that their price is relatively chep than other cafes. Overall my experience is fantastic. I think that I will go very soon once again.🙂
Priyanka Bhattacharya
Last night I ordered a cold chicken salad (my all-time favourite from chaiwala ) and it was yum.<br/>Recommended 👍👍
Rima
The waiter requested for a review so politely that I couldn't ignore. It was my 2nd visit so obviously I liked the place. Easy to locate, chilled out ambience, well crafted menu and the nice behavior of the staffs. Both times we had honey ginger tea. Ham, egg & cheese bake burger was worth mentioning. Also try honey BBQ wings.
Rima Ghosh
I loved the cold chicken salad. Must try..
Ankesh Ranjan
What a place!!!! My first experience here but I have never found such a cozy and cool chai adda...will recommend everyone to try...honey lemon tea was awesome...thnx..
Sayan Mitra
Located at Tollygunge, 7mins walk from Mahanayak Uttam Kumar Metro Station. The ambiance and decor is beautiful. And the place is quite pocket friendly as well.<br/>.<br/>Coming to what we had:<br/>Oreo Shake: Both quality and quantity was perfect Loved it. Recommended!<br/>Fries with Chicken and Cheese: It was simply amazing. Highly Recommended.<br/>Tangy Mustard Chicken Burger: Very much disappointing. Not at all Recommended!<br/>.<br/>Overall had a good experience!

❄️ Feeling cold??<br/>Focus on a cup of cappuccino and beat the shivering bites in a sip !! Here's presenting a lovely cup of cappuccino.<br/>.<br/>.<br/>❄️ From: The Chaiwala ( @thechaiwala15 is a small but popular cafe at tollygunj. It is very near to indrapuri studio and a 5min walk from mahanayak uttam kumar or formerly known as tollygunj metro station)<br/>❄️ For : 90 bucks
Sayan Chatterjee
Place started off good, but after my recent visit, I am not at all satisfied. First of all, special preferences are being given to actors where one person is occupying a table of 4 but 3 persons are being told to adjust or place is full. Ordered normal tea, where they use clay cups like local tea shops, except they keep on reusing the same cups. The cup we were served in smelled like public toilet. Overall, not at all satisfied. Just a suggestion to the management, treat all your customers in the same way, it's not only the so called celebrities who are contributimg to your profit. Don't hope to visit again anytime soon..
Anjali Prasad
Brilliant service. Will visit again for sure.
Shinjini Bhowmick
Their service and menu is good but a wait staff did not understand our order and hence it lead to sone inconvenience.
Rima Chatterjee
According to me this is one of the best cafes in South Kolkata.The food is worth the price and the ambience is just too good.My favourite dishes from Chaiwala are:<br/>Bacon Tornado Burger<br/>Fried Bacon<br/>Soy Honey Chicken Wings<br/>I just love to visit this place whenever I get time❤️
Spandan Sarkar
Service was best here and so as the coffee and sandwiches. Awesome decor. It was a feel-free experience for me. Location wise good, reasonable rate. Worth a second visit for sure.
Pubali Paul
What a great ambience!!<br/>My day just got better with the hot chocolate!(100/-)<br/>On the spicy side,we had American hot wings(185/-) which was again a big hit.<br/>And lastly the chicken popcorn(140/-) which had 25 small pieces with mayo🤤and sauce.<br/>Loved it!!!<br/>Oh I'm coming again!!
Jibhe Jol
Chaiwala …sounds good. This outlet of the chaiwala is situated at very near to indrapuri studio. 5 minutes walking distance from tollygunge metro station…on the N.S.C.Bose road. Ambience is so good and friendly.<br/><br/>We tried…<br/><br/>Honey and butter pancake<br/>Honey tossed chicken wings<br/>White sauce pasta<br/><br/>Enjoy!!
Ausmita Sarkar
Loved the white picket fence, and beautiful wall art! The coffee and cookie was the standard deliciousness you get at every chaiwala outlet. The burger was slightly disappointing (especially considering the price), the fries not as crisp as I would have liked. The place setting looked slightly more cramped than the other outlet. Other than that, a good place to spend a while.
S T A L U K D E R
Good location but the space is small. Tried cheese tomato corn sandwich and masala fries, both of which were not up to the mark.

Jahnabi Saha
Have visited place quite a number of times. The ambience is nice but the discussion is very small. There are comedy show on Fridays and the cafe remains crowded. The chicken mozzarella fritters tastes good and is served with some great dips. However the drinks are very sweet even when asked to make less sweet. The masala French fries taste good. The price is moderate. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating options. Good for spending time with friends.
Natasha
We'd heard a little too much about The Chaiwala, and hence made our first visit. It is tucked into Graham's Lane, a small, cozy cafe with quite remarkable decoration. The food we ordered came in sumptuous amount. The quantity was excellent, a little too generous than what I'd expected, but by the time we had the dessert, it was time to doubt our goodwill about the place. The brownie and ice-cream that we ordered- the brownie was undoubtedly stale, and tasted nothing good. It was indeed, very underwhelming to end the meal on such a disappointing note.
Swapnaja Roy
We ordered hot chocolate and fried chicken sausages.. the hot chocolate was really delicious .. it had a really rich taste without any form of dilution whatsoever .. the sausages were a bit on the salty side but overall dipped in mayo it tasted good.. the ambience was extremely warm and cozy.. the staff were very courteous .. I'll recommend this cafe if u want to have a cozy evening out with your loved ones

The place is amazing, in a small area it has covered alot. The service was quick and food was tasty. I would surely like to visit again!

The location and the indoor ambience of this cafe is absolutely comfortable and soothing. Also not to forget about the amazing mouthwatering dishes they serve. One of the most favorite dish of mine has always been the Honey & butter pan cake.<br/>To know more #follow @what_next_to_explore (Instagram)<br/>

As I was searching for a good place around Tollygunge, I stumbled upon this place and looking at the rating and reviews of this place, i decided to give it a try. This is situated in a small lane near tollygunge. Upon entering the place, the wooden seating and quirky decor kind of intrigued me. The menu card had amazing options to choose from and each dish was described vividly . We ordered two cappuccino , white sauce chicken pasta and chicken burger. The cappuccino came in no time accompanied by a cookie . I loved the cappuccino.<br/>White sauce pasta was an absolute hit for me. The sauce was perfect and the pasta was cooked right too.Burger came with a serving of french fries. The patty of the burger was juicy and flavourful. Overall all the items were great in taste. The staff was very welcoming and service was super quick too. Looking forward to my next visit.
Sayantani Ghosh
The most likeable thing about this place is the generous behaviour of the staff. Apart from that the food served was pretty good and we were filled upto the brim. But the prices were a over the top for a coffee shop to have.
Adityavikram Roychowdhury
5 minutes from my home<br/>This place has become a regular joint<br/><br/>The food is very nice and the ambience is also soothing<br/>The staff is also polite<br/><br/>Would recommend everyone to visit

Oishi Dasgupta
I've been here a couple of times but never got around to reviewing the place. The quality of the food has only continued to improve since. The portions are adequate and the staff is always checking in on our needs.
Poulami Biswas
This is a wonderful small cafe situated in the bylanes of "Tollypara " One minute walk from Indrapuri studio. As one walks in one is sure to find people occupying tables from different walks of life and they are not just the cafe loving youngsters but also office goers who loved some old Kolkata evening adda over a cup of tea or cappuccino and some sandwich.<br/><br/>As I walked in with my friend, a very courteous service staff warmly welcomed us showing the seats. He was with us through out our ordering and guided us about the pricing and portion accordingly.<br/>As we got little inclined towards the name of the cafe we ordered for one full pot Darjeeling tea sufficient for two people. While we were seated on the wooden chairs and admiring both the tea and the decor, we ordered for a Grilled Cheese and Chicken sandwich with added mushroom. One can clearly understand from my pictures that one portion is more than sufficient for two people. It had chicken chunks, bell peppers, onion mushroom cooked nicely to add cheese and thereafter grilled with oil brushing all over it.<br/>Next was the showstopper of the evening the Penne pasta in Cheese sauce with Chicken and mushroom. On request for customisation they added extra cheese and the mushroom. The pasta was sufficient enough for two of us. It had carrots, bell peppers, onion and served with dry Rosemary dressing and coriander for decoration. This is another pasta joint in the city for the all the pasta lovers. The taste was so heavenly that we licked the bowl to utter embarrassment.<br/>To finish we were highly impressed by the hospitality, the ambience and of course the food. There are two elements of the service which was extremely cute, were the small log shaped salt and pepper bottles on the table and the bill holder which was a straw box.<br/>Would highly recommend this cafe for its pasta. Surely coming back again.<br/>Wish them all the gastronomic success for future! Price break up:-<br/><br/>Darjeeling Tea *2= 120 (60 each)<br/>Cheese Mushroom and Onion Sandwich=140 with added chicken=50<br/>Chicken Cheese Sauce Pasta=250 with extra cheese cube=30 and added Mushroom=30<br/>Total=620 + GST(15+15) =651
Amrita Bandyopadhyay
Awesome ambience..polite behaviour of service people...good quality of food..overall vry good...cold chicken salad is a must try......😍😍..
Aparup Chatterjee
I ordered mashed potatoes and chicken cheese white sauce pasta. Just want to know how a person shall have those on road without cutlery. Their reason of not serving is avoiding plastic, which is good, but what's the other option in place of that. You guys are pretty expensive therefore you should also take care of these things. Not expected.
Poushali Dutta
Good ambience with finger licking food and smoothies. It is one of the hatke cafes in this city. We had chicken wings, burger n pasta and all were yummy.

I had to wait for some one for couple of hours, so walked into a nearby cafe after searching in zomato. But it turned out to be a great experience in this small junction.<br/><br/>I ordered their special tea, which comes with two complimentary toast biscuits. It was mild strong, perfectly sweet, milk is on thicker side.<br/><br/>Though I was not hungry, still my greed towards trying new places won and ordered one double decker grilled chicken burger. House made juicy chicken patty was amazing to taste. Barbeque sause was the winner along with the melting cheese. It's looks so appealing while served with ketchup and french fries.<br/><br/>Wooden seat was comfortable, but good music was missing and the noisy staffs were too loud with their gossips. They were good with the knowledge of their menu, also suggested me to had in between smoked pork & bacon sandwich, all meat sandwich, tangy mustard chicken burger or bacon tornado as they were most ordered by the loyal customers.<br/><br/>I am happy with this smart cafe, definitely recommend..<br/><br/>Rating: 4****/4<br/>Address: 6/1/2 Graham's Land, N.S.C Road, Tollygunge<br/><br/>#spoonsnforks #diariesofdru #eatwellbewell #ভালোখেয়েভালোথেকো<br/>#am2pmfood #panchphoron<br/><br/>#foodphotography #foodporn #foodie #foodgasm #foodblogger #kolkatabuzz #kolkatabloggers #kolkata #kolkatafoodie #kolkatafoodbloggers #kolkatasutra #kolkatafoodlovers #sokolkata

Awesome food,staff here are very polite and courteous and dynamic and I really appreciate that they all attended customers with a heart warming smile...<br/>We tried their Cheesy Chicken Sandwich,Grilled chicken burger,Soy Honey Wings,Cappuccino and lastly in dessert Choco Walnut Pot cake.<br/>Taste -<br/>1)Cheesy Chicken Sandwich was filled with boiled Chicken shreds,Bell pepper,Mozerella Cheese, Mayonnaise..It was Creamy and tasty as well non spicy but as I am a spicy food loving person so for me it was just a casual Sandwich..They served with a dash of sweet tomato sauce..(3/5)<br/>2)Grilled chicken burger contained slices of onion, tomato, ice berg lettuce,Cheese and a chicken patty ..They served it with fresh fries and dash of sweet tomato sauce.. French fries tasted as of frozen one available in market..Not made freshly..(3/5)<br/>3)Soy Honey Wings contained 4 chicken wings nicely cooked in soy honey sauce..The garlic slices tastes awesome in that sauce..(Most recommended)(5.5/5)<br/>4)Cappuccino was thick, creamy and delicious frothy cappuccino ..Served with a cookie..Tasted delicious..(4.5/5)<br/>5)Choco Walnut Pot Cake contained chocolate walnut cake cooked in pot,served hot with cold vanilla ice cream on top,and a dash a chocolate sprinkles over it .And most importantly above which a choco-coffee reduction was poured ....Which take the dessert to another level up..(Most recommended)......(10/5)<br/>Ambience (5/5)-It is situated in a bylane , ambience is nice, decor is beautiful...They have both indoor and outdoor seating arrangements....<br/>Staff (5/5)-The men were nice ,polite and well behaved and friendly.....<br/>Expense (4.5/5)-Not such Pocket friendly but value for money...

I have been going to Chaiwala for over three years now. Funnily enough, this has been my favorite place to hangout with my boyfriend, still is, always will be. It's almost as if we never want to visit other Cafe's.<br/>The service has surprisingly maintained consistency over the years.<br/>And for broke souls like me, it's a great place with pocket friendly food. Like you can have a good meal for two under 300 INR if you know what to order.

If you are wondering where to go for the first date or you're meeting a friend over coffee and some finger foods, this place is the SOLUTION. Since this place is quite near to mine, I visit there often. <br/>Some of their best: American chicken wings( you'll want more. Also, its an addiction, trust me😂)<br/>Every burger worth a try. <br/>Waffles are my favourite and tiramisu coffee is just a bliss with the mouth-melting cookie! ❤️

It's a cool place actually ! I really liked the ambience. The food was decent though, not finger licking good. I didn't like the long wait times although i understand it takes time to make good food. What I loved was the dessert actually. It was the hazelnut pot cake(I'm bad with names so can't remember) it's a must try. Go and have some nice food and a great time with friends !

This is my second time here and I again loved the food and ambience. The staffs were also good. I am in love with this place. Price is also low according to the quality and amount of food. Absolutely in love with chaiwala.

A bit difficult to spot location wise, this cafe offers good pasta and some extra good iced teas. The place is however cramped up and the staff response is usually very slow. However, there is a table outside for people who like to have their tea/coffee while smoking.<br/><br/>USP - This place hosts comedy nights (possibly on weekends).

Have been here thrice. One of my favourite cafes in Kolkata. Food quality is also very good. Pocket friendly as well. I have tried their Penne pasta in Mixed Sauce, Penne pasta in Cheese sauce, Cold chicken salad, Cheese tomato and corn sandwich, Choco walnut pot cake with icecream, Oh! Oreo and a Mojito (don't remember which one). Both the pastas were too good. Salad and sandwich were also good. The cake and Oh! Oreo were yummy, feeling like having it again while writing 😛. I didn't like the Mojito much, it was okayish. Very well behaved and cooperating staff. Will obviously visit again, as it is located very close to Tollygunge metro.<br/>Rieth Swagat Ghosh<br/>Piyali Samanta<br/>Poulami Samanta

Went for a quick food here and I didn't expect the experience to be so good. Me and my friend ordered Pasta. Chicken white sauce penne and Chicken mixed sauce penne. Both were fantastic and the behavior of the staffs was also very satisfying. I would recommend this to everyone. Located just opposite to the Indrapuri Studio at tollygunge.

Since Chaiwala was 2 mins walk away from my flat, this used to be my almost everyday’s adda place and trust me, food is yumm. My favourite was the hot chocolate and I can go there anytime for that. A must visit place.

Visited this place pretty long back and tried their chaiwala special. Really liked the quality of the tea, it’s aroma, the flavours. The place is very small but with cozy ambiance. the Sandwich served was also good. Overall liked this place and looking forward to visit again

This is my second time visiting this place and a first on writing a review.<br/><br/>Without much ado, let me jump right into the food section. The items we ordered:<br/><br/>1. Apple Synder Mocktail- We started off by ordering this mocktail. Though the taste isn't different from that of those sparkling apple juices, it does feel refreshing after you have a sip on a hot summer day.<br/><br/>2. Spicy Cheese chicken Sandwich and Egg Cheese Sandwich- Perfectly grilled sandwiches with the right amount of spice for the chicken one and cheese for the egg one that would satisfy anyone's hungry tummy.<br/><br/>3. Chicky popcorn- Finger food served with ketchup and mayo.Not much to say.<br/><br/>4. BBQ chicken wings- Again not much to say. It was okay.<br/><br/>5. Fiery Spetnaz Burger- The best one on this list. Filled with ample cheese and the right amount of spiciness this one was an absolute treat.<br/><br/>6. Belgian waffle with ice cream and maple syrup- Honestly thought this would be the cherry on top and it was until I found out that the waffle was too soggy for my liking. Otherwise I liked both the presentation and taste.<br/><br/>Overall the food managed to fill up my tummy and at the end of the day this is the only thing that matters :)<br/>
