The Chai Box Cafe

Things you should know: I. PARKING There's a parking lot to the left and in front of the building. Easy. II. SERVICE & QUALITY They sell chai tea bags, chai tea concentrate, candles and other merch. The pastries are phenomenal and pair well and their drinks, which also taste great! I recommend everything. I've seen the owner offer tea samples to customers if you're iffy with what to choose. III. CAPACITY Seating indoors and outdoors is very slim.

Wow the chai box is so good. We’ve gone 3 weeks in a row, it’s our favorite part of the week! Everything is delish, vegetarian and fresh. Highly highly recommend.

The place was packed on Sunday, but the line moved pretty quickly and we only waited around 15 minutes. It definitely feels a little cramped inside, but their service is quick and efficient. We tried the summer special Hill Station Cloud and absolutely loved the cardamom malai on top. I personally prefer my chai a little thicker, but the flavours were really good. We also tried the samosa croissant, which was flaky and delicious. The best part was that they warm it in the oven to maintain the crunch. Big thumbs up for that instead of using a microwave and making it soft or just serving it as is. As soon as you enter, the place smells amazing. You can really see the effort and thought that has gone into creating the space. Definitely worth a visit! I hope I get a chance next time to sit down there, and enjoy my chai. One thing to keep in mind is that parking can be a little difficult to find.

The food, drinks, and service were all amazing! The staff was incredibly welcoming and took the time to explain the authentic flavors. I will definitely come back for more. I am also not a chai person so I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked their version of it.

I really loved my experience at Chai Box. The place is small, but the moment you walk in, the aroma of chai instantly gives you that cozy, home-like feeling. My friends and I tried a few chai drinks and pastries, and everything was really good. I especially loved the Gulab Jamun Affogato and the Matchai—such unique combinations, and they turned out way better than I expected. The Samosa Pastry was good too, though I felt like it was missing a little something. Overall, it’s definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area. Great chai, unique menu items, and a warm atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!
