This quaint little bookstore located on the roof top of a little house at the end of a little street off Queen’s Road in downtown Bangalore is the definition of “A Hidden Gem” and will make it fall in love with this beautiful city as much as Cubbon Park or Lalbagh Botanical Gardens will. Definitely check it out and plan to spend a good few hours there. They even have a small reading corner for kids and also serve food and drinks.
Ambiance is great and They need to improve a lot on food and beverages(since their main focus is books). It was average. I’ll surely visit again to change the review and to see if they have improved. Couldn’t find books i was looking for. I would rate 3/5 for books. 3/5 for food. 5/5 for ambiance.
Champaca Cafe is my favorite place in Bengaluru. If you’re a reader, it’s a must visit spot. You can buy coffee and snacks and sit for hours. However they charge extra if you use your laptop. The prices are affordable, and the place is super cute with a unique vibe. Reaching here can be a bit tricky since some roads are blocked but it’s definitely worth a visit. 10/10 from my side.
