Barista Coffee Co. Ltd.

Being at 33 Nehru Kutia in Malka Ganj puts us right in a spot where there’s always something happening. It’s an old part of Delhi, and the building has that classic feel that you don’t really see in the newer developments. We spend our days around the smell of ground beans and the sound of the milk steamer. It’s not a quiet office environment. There are always people coming in and out, some in a hurry and others just looking for a place to sit for a while. We aren't trying to be anything other than a local spot where people can get what they need. The staff here knows the regulars by their usual orders, and we don't bother with fancy titles or corporate talk. We just focus on keeping the machines clean and the counters wiped down. Sometimes the power goes out or the internet acts up, and we have to scramble to fix it while customers wait. That’s just part of being in this neighborhood. We like the energy of the students from the nearby university and the older folks who have lived in Malka Ganj their whole lives. It’s a practical place. We don't have a grand vision; we just want to make sure the next cup is as good as the last one we poured. It's often noisy with the clatter of cups and people talking, but that is just how we like the atmosphere to be.
