At Desire Instant Chai, you will discover a mesmerizing array of beverages and quick bites, featuring local favorites and a variety of tea blends. Sink into a chair and savor their famous Desi Masala Chai, a robust and aromatic brew that will awaken your senses with each sip. Don’t miss out on the Elaichi Chai, steeped to perfection and kissed with cardamom – a classic favorite that evokes feelings of comfort and nostalgia.

The real magic, however, happens when you explore the café's Short Eats.

If you’re in the mood for something different, the menu boasts an impressive line-up of drinks, from Hot Chocolate Coffee to Detox Kahwa, and even revitalizing Nimbu Pani perfect for warming afternoons. Each drink is crafted with utmost care, ensuring that what you sip on is not just palatable but an experience in itself.

Step inside and you’ll find a welcoming atmosphere that encourages relaxation – soft music fills the air, making it an ideal spot for a casual catch-up with friends or a solitary moment of peace with a book. Shridhar Shinde describes the staff as “kind” and noted the “good smile,” reflecting the heartwarming service that makes every visit special.

In the evenings, the café becomes a bustling hub where the air is filled with laughter and conversations, creating an inviting ambience that keeps customers returning.

Randomly came accross this cafe a month back while buying some stuff for my home in Ghatkopar. This places serves Tea, coffee and snacks. Rates are very very reasonable for the quality, taste and hygiene they provide. You might have to wait a lil longer if you order for snacks, but the time you would wait for is worth it. They freshly prepare the snacks after your order. In snacks, I had ordered for upma and Kanda Poha. Sitting area is not to large but good enough. I hope they open their next outlet in Marol, so that I can be a regular.
