In terms of bites, the café is serving some delectable continental cuisine and Chinese cuisine along with their in-house coffee blends and mocktails.

Partners Pratik Agarwal (right) and Abhishek Singh said: “We decided to open a rooftop café in this area because Tangra lacks good F&B outlets that go beyond the quintessential Chinese fare. Since the area consists of many residential complexes, so we decided to contribute a cool hangout spot here for the public. We are serving continental, Chinese and Indian cuisines along with our special coffee collection and pancakes which are made in-house.”
