Roast & Toast

Our little shop is located in Hissar at the P.W.D. B & R Colony. We are at Shop No 6 and 7, which isn't a huge space but it works for what we do. Being near H.A.U. Gate Number 4 means we see a lot of students and university staff walking by every day. Some of them stop in for a quick bite or just a drink while they talk about their classes. The colony is usually quiet in the mornings, then it picks up as the day goes on. We spend a lot of time just keeping the place tidy and making sure the inventory is stocked up. It’s not a polished cafe like the ones you see in big malls, it’s more of a local hangout. The chairs are simple and the menu is stuff people actually like to eat daily. We get the dusty wind from the road sometimes, so we’re always cleaning the counters. It’s a bit of a routine now, opening up early and staying until the evening light fades. The neighbors know us, and we know which students are cramming for exams by how much tea they drink. We don’t have a big team, just a few of us making sure things run okay. It's just a regular spot in Hissar where you can sit for a bit without any fuss. We like being near the gate because there's always something to see.
