The concept
A neighbourhood hangout.
Chai Kadé is a compact neighbourhood hangout with chairs outside, a short and confident menu, and a counter that does drinks properly.
The focus is on three things done exceptionally well: fresh drinks from scratch, honest food at accessible prices, and a space where people actually want to linger.
What to try
The house favourites.
A short menu, done properly. These are the first things people come back for.
The pricing principle
Premium feel, accessible price.
< Rs. 1,000
A juice and a snack. Always.
