Cafe Coffe Day

We’re tucked away in Pushpa Nivas. It’s in Parabadi Ni Pole, right in the heart of Shahpur, Ahmedabad. This isn’t one of those big, shiny Cafe Coffee Day outlets you see in a mall. It’s more of a local spot where people come to grab a cup of coffee and sit for a bit. The address, 2373, is in an old area with narrow streets. It gets quite busy around here, especially in the mornings when everyone is heading to work. We do the usual coffee things. We aren't trying to be fancy with latte art or anything like that. Just good, hot coffee for the folks living or working nearby. The building, Pushpa Nivas, has a lot of history to it. You can feel the age of the walls. Sometimes it’s a bit cramped when too many people come in at once, but we make it work. We’ve been serving coffee here for a while now. People know the name, but they come for the convenience and the fact that we’re right in the neighborhood. It’s noisy outside with the traffic and the street life of Shahpur, but inside it’s a bit calmer. We don’t have a big staff, just a few of us making sure the pots are full and the place is tidy. It’s a simple life, really. Just coffee and conversation in a part of Ahmedabad that hasn't changed too much over the years. We are just here doing our job every day for the locals.
