I'll say though, the location is very weird. Not the address itself, but how it's basically like entering someone's home in a middle of an established colony. This ain't a place that's in the forefront of a main road or a popular street. As for what I ordered: 1) Orange Squash: ₹75. 2) Cheese Stuffed Chicken: ₹360. 1] I did ask the waiter to add less ice, so he did, and this is the product. Honestly, it doesn't taste bad. You can weirdly taste the freshness of orange in it, not the artificial kind. I'll say, though, for ₹75, this is a bit steep, but on the other hand, you do get it in a glass with a glass straw. So overall, get this if you come here on a hot summer day. I'll say it's better than a regular Mojito. 2] I wanted to order roast chicken, but I was told it doesn't have chicken breast, but rather only a chicken leg piece (in my opinion, not a drumstick, but more like the leg piece you get in biryani). So I ordered this. Honestly, I don't hate it. For the price, it's decent, and I'll say it's value for money. Though I'll say the cheese here isn't the best quality, the sauce that came by the side tasted weird. But on the other hand, the herbed rice tasted really good, even with my jammed nostrils due to a cold. The chicken tasted between good and great, and the veggies were alright though.

Recently visited the cafe that Red House in Ballygunge, it's a perfect mix of old and a modern city vibe with great finger food and very refreshing drinks, you can enjoy an evening snack or brunch with your loved ones and spend some really good time. What I enjoyed the most in this place was Fish fry, Mutton chop and BBQ chicken pizza. Overall the cafe is very pocket-friendly just take Rs. 600-700 and you are good to go. Definitely recommend this place

If you’re looking for a good cafe with old Calcutta vibes and a cozy ambience, this place is a hidden gem. From vintage furniture and soft jazz to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, every corner whispers nostalgia. It feels like stepping into a slower, more graceful time — perfect for long conversations, reading, or simply unwinding. The service is warm, and the charm of the old-world décor truly sets the mood. A must-visit for anyone who wants to soak in the spirit of old Kolkata, one sip at a time.

Small place with 20+ seats offering a mix of Indian and international cuisine. The menu presented to us didn’t had all items on offer probably because of low footfall. We ordered coffee and fish with lemon sauce. Both were fine. Overall, satisfied. May be they will work on their menu (print a new one with available items only instead of forcing customers to scan a big menu with lots of unavailable items. Covid is gone so instead of data hoarding schemes, do some real work.
