The Roastery Coffee House. ( Cafe )
From the creator's of the very popular Coffee Cup at Sainikpuri here comes another place which apparently is the pet project of the owner Nishanth and his fiance. Located in a Villa at Rd #14,Banjara Hills this is already a popular place thanks to the setting which beautifies the experience.
My first impressions after the visit yesterday night was it is a place which is still blooming before it becomes the place the owner's have envisioned. But they have started basic operations with all the necessary things like Coffee, appetizers and a few select mains. They apparently source their own coffee from choicest places which makes them a must try here.
I tried the Cinnamon Latte while my friend tried the Blended brownie Cold Coffee both had a very strong coffee flavor which was very refreshing, but there was no flavor of Cinnamon in it but going forward I'm sure they will get it corrected. Then we tried the 'Cheese Onion rings' which was very crispy and filling as an appetizer, was served with the BBQ sauce.
Was recommended to try their Chef's special Mac and Cheese which had 4 different kinds of cheese and extra grated Parmesan as a side. For a Purist, they would love this bland , cheesy and perfect M n'C. I added the smoked BBQ sauce and loved it, would have loved some garnish or paprika powder on top for the visual appeal. The bread that was given as a side was awesome.
Never seen a Mushroom sandwich before anywhere and we ordered one which was served with Garlic Mayo and french fries as side. Very filling indeed.
Good things: Lovely Coffee smell when you enter and nice engaging things to spend a lot of leisure time.
Cons: Space is too small and already getting crowded.
Work in progress: The Reading room in first floor which will give more space to play with. The coffee roasting machine which will come soon
Not to miss: The Chess board, the lime and mint water and of-course the coffee!
With the pricing being very value for money, I'm sure it will be a place which will always be thronging with people.
