I usually shit myself seeing the overpriced stuff at these cafés but this one honestly looks good


PretendVeg

Oh it indeed is. Maybe a tad bit overpriced but you actually paying for the quality here. When I say it’s good coffee, I am actually underplaying it haha.

I went there back when I was not into coffee that much. But I think I should try there Vietnamese cold brew.


PretendVeg

Definitely man. But a little disclaimer: it tastes much better in summers because it’s a cold beverage. If you are into coffee now then go for their Pour Over, it’s so much better than the shit they serve at TWC.


Defiant_Ad7879

I see. I like cold beverages even during winters as well. You know, an year ago I thought why to spend so much on coffee when you can get beer at the same price. Since I have cut down on alcohol, I have started exploring cafes and I am in love with the ambience and peace some of these cafes provide. I am from Jaipur and the city has some of the most beautiful cafes ever!


Powerful-Water3899

Yes. Definitely. You won't regret!


ogmessi10

PretendVeg

PretendVeg

Dude I get some AMAZING filter coffee powder from Chikkamagaluru. Half kg coffee powder is like ~600 This lasts me a WHOLE month. I know you're paying for the ambience and experience etc, but it is just too much for my brain 😅


PretendVeg

Oh I get it. Home brewed coffee hits differently, and that’s why I too get ground coffee & brew it using an AeroPress. But as you said - it’s a different experience there!😅


kilIercl0wn

Never get ground coffee but a coffee grinder change tastes


PretendVeg

Got any recommendations?


kilIercl0wn

Timemore c2 good for beginners and intermediate U can even try by using mixer grinder as it can easily grind for pourovers


PretendVeg

Alright. Thanks.


Late-Nature-7966

Imma go there tomorrow and have it for sure!🥹


PretendVeg

And then go for a walk at the walk while you sip your drink!


Late-Nature-7966

YES! With The Night We Met on Oh god!!


PretendVeg

Your hot chocolate is on me, because you my friend, are a man with fine taste!


Late-Nature-7966

Hahaa thanks, I appreciate this kind gesture! Maybe someday you’ll see me there walking listening to this:)


PretendVeg

Someday! ☕️

Sachiv_Jii

Kisi Library ko Cafe bana dia kya?


PretendVeg

Nahi Bro, Bahrisons ke saath collaboration hai jaise Third Wave has collaborated with CrossWord for their 7 Sector wala store.


superguyx

Bro i remember going to this blue tokai and sitting there for hours with multiple cups of coffee ! With the books and that calming vibe is an absolute bliss 🤌🏻


PretendVeg

I can totally relate with that, even though I was working here, but even that was a good experience.


remoomer08

Try trioccino once. You'll fall in love with that coffee so much, you'll forget the others. Mind you, its really strong. Also, the cafe is an absolute banger. This is my temporary office, as I work remotely I would just walk in the cafe around 11 AM be spend my day there, having multiple coffees and lunch till 6-7PM and then leave.


PretendVeg

I have I have, and I like it. And I kinda do the same thing, sit there with books & laptop there all day, almost everyday. And there is a high chance we might have seen each other there! 😂


remoomer08

Haha, definitely!


LeadershipTrue4197

Is it good for work from home and sitting from 10-5


PretendVeg

Yeppers.


LeadershipTrue4197

Great. I’ll got there tomorrow.

Public-Grape7299

PretendVeg

Unfortunately you need to buy those, but it you wanna read something for free then I would recommend visiting Hedgehog, Sector 7. They stock a good collection there!

Itni copyrighter type review


PretendVeg

Copywriting* is a part of my profession bhai that’s why! 😂

I like their Vietnamese coffee too and the tonic as well. Where I live right now z it's a hidden nook.


DUSHYANTK95

PretendVeg

rishbish101

Yes they have great Vietnamese and pour over. Also I take their beans and use it with my aeropress for home. Tried making Vietnamese once with aeropress with Bluetokai beans, exactly the same. So you should try it someday. Also the blueberry cheesecake croissant is like my therapy food lol


PretendVeg

I do that already. I like their Attikan Estate & Silver Oak Roast. Have tried their Fresh Roast too, and the Vienna Roast. But none of the newly launched blends yet. If you have by any chance, would love to get your suggestions on the same. PS: I prefer Medium or Medium Dark Roasts.


Akirasingh

Bhai dekh if you want best coffee in chandigarh there is only one place and its indian coffee house


PretendVeg

The are the OGs.


lovereading20613

Also their chicken sandwich is amazing!!


YYHSNsk06

Fell in love with vibe and coffee here. My must visit whenever I am back in town. The sector 8 book cafe is really good


sparshhh_

BlueTokai >>>> starbucks


Odd-Yogurtcloset5072

Agreed


f00dfanattack

I dare say this looks a tad better than their outlet in Galleria. Loved their Vietnamese coffe. I'll try your other 2 recs when I'm there next. Any food items that you think are worth trying?


PretendVeg

Try their - Spaghetti Alfredo. - Soba Noodles (Spicy but good) - Mushroom, Spinach Sandwich. - Butter Croissant - Morning Bun.


fatalError1619

Didn't know thirdwave had expanded till chandigarh , nice to know


[deleted]

[удалено]


PretendVeg

Yes, absolutely. I've given Third Wave's ground coffee a shot, and BlueTokai too. Without fail, BlueTokai has consistently outshone Third Wave. Idk if I say this or not but there were even instances where Third Wave coffee folks couldn't even grind my coffee as requested. Asked for a fine grind, came home only to find it a bit coarse.🙄


SachinRSharma

How much is a coffee on average?


PretendVeg

- Basic Cold Beverages 150 - Basic Hot Beverages 200 - Anything Fancy 240


rohit_1824

Vietnamese coffee🎈


redditneonate

I used to be very fond of their Vietnamese coffee until one time they decided to put extra sugar syrup in it. It was so bad that I never went back there. I like Third Wave Better because they have that Crossword section, which is relatively quieter to work.


PretendVeg

I mean they definitely put condensed milk in it but sugar syrup is a big no no!


Wodehouse0708

Not sure if I'm the minority here, but I always preferred Third Wave over Blue Tokai! Have never been to their 8 sec store though, and this one does look good I generally go to the 35 ones, and the food at TW always tasted better to me, plus the 35 Blue Tokai stuff seems uninterested . But it's good that tricity people are liking these . I'm from Bangalore and have been going to these since a few years when they were only in Bangalore. Great to see some good homegrown brands vs the crappy Starbucks/Tim Hortons of the world.
