Directions

A no-frills, old-school South Indian coffee house in the Fort area that serves some of the best filter coffee in the city at prices that feel almost anachronistic. The idli-vada combo and the strong decoction coffee are the reasons to visit. The setting is spartan and seating is communal, but that's entirely the point — this is authentic, unpretentious Mumbai.
