I really like the idea of selling such tasty tea in so much low price. Really happy with the taste of the tea. My personal favorite is Special Masala Tea and in cold its mango milk shake. Great place and probably my new chiya khane thau. Loved everything about the café.

A nice cafe to have tea with your group. The tea tasted good as well. The cup reminded me of old days and having tea at local streets or places.

This is a lovely new tea cafe on a quiet side street in Purano Baneshwar. It has at least 20 types of tea, all sourced from Nepal. Nice murals on the walls and festive string lights at night. Hookah and Momos available. Staff is friendly and the wifi is great. You can come, sit and work.
