Tea Junction Cafe & Lounge Menu by Natasha Jain

Down

Memory

lane The Tea Junction Café, as the name suggests, is rightly located at a T-Junction, adding character to the cafe. The passion for tea resulted in a spectacular structure, the exterior which depicts a Tea-pot when viewed from any angle. A close encounter and an eye for detail, will unleash you to yet another well thought-of and colorfully adorned glass frames that showcase a huge alphabet “T”. Go on… take a look around you! With just over a few years of its existence, the Tea Junction Café has served more memories than tea itself. A hush ambiance, cozy sofas, free Wi-Fi connection and good music, makes for everything from a sweet valentine date, to a loud high school reunion, to a business meeting, to an awareness campaign and anything and everything that can be accommodated to help our customers unwind and have fun. Open all day, the Tea Junction Café is indeed a favorite haunt, which boasts of a homely vibe and attracts many with its romantic and communal feeling. An ideal place for the light hearted, you can immediately associate a gathering with some harmless gossip. Gossip, eventually leads to secrets and secrets bring out the skeletons from the closet, making our café echo with chitter-chatter. The café has witnessed and continues to be abuzz with the young and the old, who come to relax and spend long hours unwinding with their favorite cuppa. So be a part of the Tea Junction family and join us in our endeavor to make this café a place away from home!!

“Come, let us have some tea and continue to talk about happy things.” – Chaim Potok

If you are a tea or ‘chai’ lover like I am, I think you will agree, coffee drinkers have it easy! There are a million good coffee places ... but it really is rare to find a good tea spot that’s a cafe/ lounge too and not a roadside cafeteria! Prices are affordable, the food was great, service was quick and the ambiance/decor was just perfect. I am definitely hooked and will be a regular visitor. – Candy loved your g e k a to han to t place lace m p d o r o f t o c p Perfe ate!!
