Ashvita is more renown for it’s art gallery than it is for its garden cafe… but for those of you who haven’t bin there, you’re missing something. Unlike most “orthodox” coffee shops, Cafe Ashvita is located away from the noise and hustle-bustle of the Chennai streets. The atmosphere is very calming and it makes an ideal place where you could go to catch up with friends on a sunday evening!

Choose the garden only if you’re sure you can cope with the heat though

The walls as you’d expect are filled with paintings.. most of which are “modern art” which might scare you if you stare too long

Anyways.. getting down to the eatables! What you get here is more or less what you get everywhere. A decent selection of starters, sandwiches, pastas, beverages and desserts.

The starters have the usuals.. paneer fingers, onion rings and the like.. nothing much to write home about. Ashvita offers a decent selection of sandwiches.. ranging from the Chilli cheese toast (Rs 35) to my favorite- the Schezwan Paneer Sandwich (Rs 65). Theres a wide selection of non-veg sandwiches too..I’ve been told that the Crispy Hot Dogs are out of this world!

There are around 6-7 varieties of Pastas to choose from. I would highly recommend the Fettuccini with Butter Garlic Sauce (Rs 75) and for you non-herbivores the Rigatoni with Italian cream sauce
which is served BBQ chicken strips is a must!

Beverages is where Cafe Ashvita really specializes! Theres a HUGE list to choose from, ranging from Iced/flavored teas, “Chais”, Coffes (Cold and Hot) .. all priced very moderately!

Ashvita offers a decent choice of fresh and canned beverages too.. including coconut water and coconut lime!! Canned juices include the regulars – apple, orange, tomato, guava necter, cranberry etc ..

And for you addicts, theres Pepsi (normal and diet ) , 7 Up.. (YAWN!)

And to end a wonderful evening, get their yummy fudge brownie!

Cafe Ashvita is the kinda place you don’t go to to eat, you go there to meet! Even though its located in the heart of the city, that little distance away from the main road makes a world of difference.. the peace and quiet is most certainly welcome!

Cafe Ashvita is located at 11, Second Street, Dr. Radhakrishnan Salai, Mylapore.
