Cafe Coffee Day

We are based in Erandwane at T Dasarahalli 123. This location is a bit tucked away but people seem to find us anyway. The coffee machine is the loudest thing in the room and it’s almost always going. We have some old sofas that have seen better days and the tables have rings on them from too many hot mugs. It’s a place where people come to sit with their laptops for hours or just stare out the window at the Erandwane traffic. We don’t bother people if they stay a long time. The smell of burnt milk and roasted beans is everywhere. Sometimes the Wi-Fi acts up and we have to restart the router behind the counter, which is always a bit of a hassle. We keep the sugar packets in a little plastic bin that never seems to stay full. It’s not the most organized place in the world, but it has a certain feeling. The staff here are mostly young people working through their studies. We wear these black aprons that get stained with cocoa powder by the end of the shift. In the evenings, the lights are dimmed a bit, not for style but because some of the bulbs burned out and we haven't climbed the ladder to change them yet. It's just a spot to get a drink and sit. We usually sweep the floor right before we close the door for the night at eleven and head home.
