Welcome to **India Chai**, a vibrant little café nestled in the heart of Brigade Road, Bengaluru, where the bustle of the city meets the comforting aroma of freshly brewed teas and delectable snacks. Located at No 185, Deenas Complex, this charming spot offers not just food, but an experience that resonates with the cultural beats of Bangalore.

India Chai specializes in a delightful selection of teas that flirt with your taste buds. The star here is undoubtedly their Masala Chai, a quintessential Indian brew that combines spices with robust tea leaves, creating a symphony of flavors. As Shrikar Raj Manne beautifully puts it, it’s “strong masala tea” paired perfectly with a soft, sesame-encrusted bun that’s deep-fried to golden perfection, making it a mouthwatering delight.

For those who crave something a little different, the café also offers Cold Coffees such as the luscious Caramel Cold Coffee and enticing Tiramisu Cold Coffee, perfect for a warm afternoon. And don’t miss their selection of refreshing Mocktails & Mojitos, including the Passion Fruit Mojito—a true summer delight!

The ambiance at India Chai is cozy and inviting, with a perfect view of the lively Brigade Road. Whether you’re there for a casual meetup or a quick snack between shopping sprees, the laid-back atmosphere encourages relaxation and unwinding. Logesh Joshi noted how the vibe adds to the charm, making it an ideal spot to soak in the city’s vibrancy. While a touch more cleanliness could enhance the experience, the overall inviting nature of the café overshadows minor imperfections.

Food lovers will appreciate their crispy Spring Rolls, which perfectly complement the aromatic teas. A favorite combo among patrons is the masala tea paired with Chicken Momos. Akhil Chandrasekhar praises this duo, insisting it's a must-try to beat the heat with a ginger, lemon, and honey concoction!

Reflecting the essence of a true chai spot, India Chai values its customers and strives to create a friendly environment. A Sravan Kumar shares his experience of savoring various delicious snacks, highlighting how the kind staff makes for an overall delightful visit. If you’re ever in the area, Shraddha Bhowad recommends that you don’t leave without trying their famed ginger chai—it’s a decision you likely won’t regret!

In summation, India Chai is not just a café; it’s a sanctuary for tea lovers and snack enthusiasts alike. With a menu that is thoughtfully curated and an atmosphere that embraces the spirit of Bangalore, this café is a must-visit. So next time you find yourself on Brigade Road, step in and treat yourself to some of the best chai in town! You’ll be glad you did.

Visited India Chai at Brigade Road for a client meeting and loved the amazing vibe. The view of Brigade Road added to the charm, making it a perfect spot to soak in the happening and lively atmosphere. The tea was good, and the place had a welcoming feel. However, a little more cleanliness could enhance the experience further. Overall, a happy place to enjoy a break while watching the bustling city life go by. Would definitely recommend for a casual meetup or a quick tea break!

Perfect quick stop in a busy road !! The teas, bread pakodas, masala maggi, banana cake .. all that we tried on a busy saturday evening here were delicious.. Especially the bread pakoda.. it was totally unexpectedly crispy and tasty.. We had ginger lemon chai and masala chai.. We enjoyed both of them.. The owners and staff are much cordial and friendly... Overall a much recommended joint here on Brigade road.

This is a small cafe overlooking Brigade Road. Just like the cafe, the name is also straightforward - India Chai. I got a big tumbler of Ginger Chai with less to nominal sugar. The Chai was fantastic. It was strong, yet not tart. I loved it. They have a lot of snacks on their menu. I did not try them, so can't comment on that. Do try the tea though, you won't regret. The cafe staff is very helpful. They gladly obliged my less sweet tea request As far as the ambience goes, they could do with a bit more cleanliness. One can easily paan spits in one of the corners and a bit of grass on the legside is full of litter. All in all, this could be my go to place for my end-of-the-working-week headche cure.

India chai is located exactly in the middle of Brigade Road. Seating facing towards the busy streets of brigade road. They have a long list of tea and make everything freshly after the order..
