This place is run by a bunch of women. It is a quite place in the terrace of an old bungalow. I went there for breakfast. This is a purely vegetarian place. Their homemade pan cakes were really good. The service was very fast. There's also a shop with trinkets, clothes and showpieces beneath the restaurant
What a beautiful place. Sweetest serving people. Ambiance is something to look out for.I would recommend this place and suggest one should visit the place for breakfast. One of the nicest places in Pondicherry.
Very friendly and courteous staff. The place was calm, green and very relaxing.
I recommend morning breakfast lunch or evening tea at the place will be relaxing
One of the best cafe I've been to in Pondicherry. Recommended to me by a friend. Kasha ki Asha is a gallery cafe run by local women and features a gallery of local handicrafts. The place is quite and humble. The two page simple menu itself speaks of their simplicity. It doesn't have much to offer but whatever it offers is simply out of this world!!!
This place is quietly tucked away in a quaint corner in white town. It is managed by very nice women who made us feel completely at home with some really good and hearty breakfast. The menu is pretty standard. We loved the waffles and Spanish omelettes. A lot of things on the menu were not available and that was a bit of a let down. Nevertheless it was a good breakfast experience and would surely recommend this place.

We were pretty quick to find this place after scooting around Pondy for a couple of days. The no frills ambiance of the place was a big draw for us and it was quite welcoming to just fold up your legs and enjoy a good meal.
Chapathy and Dal, Onion Dosai, Chips and chutney, a glass of fresh apple juice and an apple pie, we were all set to doze off at the drop of a hat. On the contrary, we didn’t feel bloated, and yet full to our heart’s desire. The big plate sized chapatis and dal was as simple and tasty as it could get. The dal was slightly different from what we generally have in the western part of the country, but we ain’t complaining with that amazing taste. We were surprised to see that our order of Onion dosai had 2 dosas, instead of the regular one. The dosa batter seemed to be fermented so well that the dosais turned out to be light and easy on the stomach. Absolutely loved the chutneys that came along, but found the same dal instead of regular sambar. As we indulged ourselves in these dishes, our smiling lady attendant got our chips and chutney and left us speechless.
Chips, as mentioned in the menu were regular sized papaddams, but they didn’t mention that they would serve……. 20 of them along with the chutney. With all our might, we managed to eat about 7 and had to wrap up the rest. Meanwhile, the idling and pulpy apple juice was just correct with its sweetness. In all its probability, they let the natural sugars of the fruit do all the talking, which made the juice refreshing. In all our times eating at different bakeries, restaurant or dessert parlors, we never saw an apple pie of that size. It was so perfectly baked that apple had just the light amount of crunch left and the grid arrangement of pastry on the top made sure that the pie didn’t turn heavy.
Some of the dishes are on the expensive side, but most of the them came with good portion sizes, which justified the prices. The point of foremost importance at Kasha ki Asha is, that it is run efficiently by a handful smiling ladies. The arts store cum rooftop café is artistic at the ground level and casual at the top. There’s no fancy air about the place and everything still looks appealing. It takes immense amount of effort to run around with a tray full of plates and climb a flight of stairs “n” number of times in a day. The homely feeling that you might want outside your home can be achieved here at KKA.
Thumbs up to the ambience and the friendly staff.
This restaurant is on the terrace of an old bungalow.
A nice place to relax and have a well organized lunch.
This place is great for a nice leisurely lunch. It's situated on the roof of a beautiful old bungalow that has an interesting collection of clothes and trinkets on the ground floor.
All the food is fresh and healthy, with a focus on great ingredients. The black bean burger was hearty and flavourful with a crunchy salad and some homemade bread. The Indian enchiladas were very healthy and light. Fresh pineapple juice was pulpy and delicious.
Definitely worth a visit if you're in Pondy!

I had bookmarked this place as a must visit on my next trip to Puducherry. Although I was running short of time, somehow I was able to squeeze in my visit to this place on the morning I was leaving! My visit was pretty quick but was enough to tie my strings to it for a regular on all my future trips to Puducherry. This gallery cum restaurant is very structured and is a royal treasure to the eyes, if vintage soothes you. The display by itself qualifies as an exhibition. The apparels, artifacts, paintings just about everything in this place very inviting. The humble interiors and the extremely polite and well-trained women servers of this place, are enough to uplift any sort of day you are going to have ahead. I was amazed at the simplicity yet the meticulous hosting mannerism adopted by the ladies working there. One of them was polite enough to tour me through the entire place and also informed that every Saturday they have live music and also serve alcohol only on that day (mark your calendars if your weekend is in Pondy).
Great ambience. Very friendly staff. I really liked their message on their menu. However I felt it was a little pricey. Nonetheless, a great experience overall!
KKA had some amazing salads and desserts option. Portion was just enough for two. The ambience is perfect and staff extremely courteous. Must visit when in Pondi (White town)
If you want to be woman in power, then empower other women - Nina Shaw. The above quote can be related to this cafe run by a bunch of smiling ladies.. Sweetest serving people.. Way to go..
The place is very neatly maintained.. This is old residence (or bungalow) which has been turned out to be a place of business.. When you enter you will find trinkets, clothes and showpieces for sale and the restaurant is located on the terrace.. Ambience is something to look out for..
We had 'Indian Enchilada' which is a hot chapati filled with lentils and salads with some cheese sprinkled.. We enjoyed the food and ordered some chocolate pan cakes and Vennila icecream.. Pancake was loaded with chocolates and truly homemade..
Though the prices of the food is overpriced I didn't bother to pay for it as we spent a quality one and half hour chatting and enjoying ourselves.. Service time was fairly good.. I'm likely to go back to this place and spend some time..
Hidden gem. We had an excellent lunch here with fresh juice. Their covered roof terrace is a perfect place to enjoy the shade on a hot day.
It's a small place located at the corner of the Surcouf Street in the White Town.
The Ground Floor is a boutique and the rooftop is the restaurant. The place has live performances on Saturday evenings usually.
The menu is very limited, though they are delicious.
The restaurant is a good place to hangout with friends or visit solo and enjoy the live performances.
A much popular cafe in the white town , will recommend to go if you are r
Traveling in august month as they have live music and concerts. Comfortable place to enjoy your coffee and juice
Nice space in beutiful post colonial building with bamboo roof 🌞 the food selection could be a bit bigger. Great life music every Saturday is a MUST to keep the music alive 😍
Kasha ki asha has all women employees. Rhe restaurant/cafe is on the terrace. The staff greets u with a lovely smile. I ordered pancakes which was served with home made orange jam n honey. I loved it.
A very serene, chilled out place on rooftop of a house, the staff is very courteous. The place is run by a bunch on women...who make some good fusion food. There's a shop with trinkets and showpieces beneath the restaurant. Every Saturday they have live music ( and also the only day they serve beer ). You can go sit and spend some good solitary time there. The menu is limited but will satisfy your taste buds.
Food- 3.5/5
Ambience- 4.5/5
Service-4.5/5
Great place for breakfast. Nice ambiance.
Laid back cafe as part of a gallery. Served by a bunch of women. Has some interesting fusion dishes. You can stay there as long as you want. When you want to leave you can just go down and the bill will be ready. Very well located close to the central part of the city. Has coffees snacks and some juices too. But it is not a place to go for a quick snack. The servers will come only when you call them.
