Cafe Coffee Day

We’re located here in Bangalore, Karnataka, right here in the middle of India. Most people know the name Cafe Coffee Day, but for us, it’s just our daily workplace. We spend a lot of time grinding beans and making sure the milk is fresh. The smell of coffee is everywhere, which I don’t mind at all. It’s a place where people come to hang out or do some work on their laptops. We have a few regulars who come in every single morning for their usual cup. It’s nice to see familiar faces. The city of Bangalore is always on the move, and we are right there with it. We don't really do the whole corporate talk thing. We just focus on making the drinks and keeping the place tidy. Sometimes we run out of a certain cake or the blender starts making a weird noise, and we just have to fix it and keep going. It’s a simple setup, really. We’ve got chairs and tables and some decent lighting. It gets loud when the students come in after class, but it brings some life to the shop. We like being part of the community here. It’s not about being the best, it’s just about being a place where you can get a decent drink and sit for a while without anyone bothering you. It's usually a bit of a mess behind the counter when we get a big rush, but we always manage to clean it up before we close.
