This was the first time I visited Cha bar and i would say it was the best experience at CP for me. I am definitely going to visit it again. The ambience is just perfect. This is an Oxford bookstore and also a cafe. We tried hot cappuccino and a cold coffee. It was good. The price was good as well. Best experience ever.

Cha Bar has a lovely ambiance and is heavenly for the bibliophiles. We ordered "Platter of Chips with Dips" and "Truck Driver 100 Mile Ki Cha". There was no platter but a small bucket of fries that had soaked in the oil. They were not fresh and the instant frozen fries were used. Tea was okay-ish and nothing extraordinary as well. The vibes are nice but the food is not worth it. Kind of overhyped!

I visited this place very recently. The main motive was to read some books and to enjoy my day. But, it wasn't possible due to heavy rush (may be that was Sunday). But I enjoyed by delicious food dishes. I had ordered basil pesto vegetable panini sandwich and pasta. I pleased by sandwich which was very hot and toothsome (Thanks for extra, free potato chips 😀). Efforts of staff members are admirable. Only, one thing they are not offering is charging port. Ambience of Cha Bar is really good. I like blue grey color contrast. Next to this Oxford store is accessible. Plenty books, hand made diaries and some gift options are avilable here. You can buy a book from Oxford store and enjoy your reading in Cha bar. Note: Your personal book is not allowed here. If you are carrying any book, then you need to submit at the down stairs. And you can collect at the end.

A lovely place to visit with friends and family . In morning there are limited options, there is a specific column in the menu for that. Best time to visit is noon till midnight also this place is crowded so you may have to wait around 15-20 minutes at least. Great and happening ambience as well as the hospitality there. Staff is really polite and provides you with the best they can offer. There is issue of parking so try to go in a Metro or cab there. A great bakery as well present in it also. A lot of options to try. Overall a great experience, you should go for pizza as well they offer a great taste. Definitely worth going again

Its a decent, cozy, and warm(poor ventilation) place with overpriced food. I think the main attraction is Oxford bookstore else the food? Pasta (arabiata) tastes sweet, pita bread is just plain uncooked dough. Cha bar, could have been much better.

This place has a vive good food with good ambiance. A place full of books. You will find all kinds of books there. Even taste of food is so good we liked the pasta and ice tea. Prices are not so high. Overall a good experience.

I really like Cha Bar’s ambience and location, right in the middle of Oxford book store. Love the pasta’s, pizza’s and all the hot and chilled teas.

Cha Bar, located in the heart of Connaught Place within the Oxford Bookstore, is a hidden gem for bookworms and tea lovers. I often visit there with my friends, this is a charming tea café, and I must say it left a lasting impression. The interiors of Cha Bar are simply beautiful. The space is tastefully decorated, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The shelves adorned with books add a touch of literary charm, making it the perfect spot for a leisurely afternoon of reading and sipping tea. The cutlery at Cha Bar is top-notch. From the elegant teapots to the delicate tea cups, every detail is carefully chosen to enhance the tea-drinking experience. The attention to detail is commendable and contributes to the overall enjoyment of the visit. But the highlight of Cha Bar is undoubtedly the menu. The range of dishes and drinks on offer is truly impressive. Whether you're in the mood for a classic masala chai or an exotic herbal infusion, Cha Bar has you covered. The teas are brewed to perfection, with a depth of flavors that is truly satisfying. The accompanying snacks and bites are equally delightful, with a variety of options to please every palate. The service at Cha Bar is attentive and friendly. The staff is knowledgeable about the teas and always ready to provide recommendations based on your preferences. They create a welcoming and relaxed environment, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. In conclusion, Cha Bar in the Oxford Bookstore Connaught Place is a haven for tea enthusiasts. With its beautiful interiors, great cutlery, and a delectable array of dishes and drinks, it offers a delightful escape from the bustling city. Whether you're a book lover or simply looking for a cozy spot to unwind, Cha Bar is the perfect destination.

This cafe is basically built inside the Oxford bookstore, it has a great ambience and is student pocket friendly. We ordered Falafel hummus with Pita bread and the veg snack platter, followed by basil pesto, baked cheesecake and hot chocolate. Food was very delicious, especially pesto and cheesecake were too good to resist. Highly recommended for evening hangouts & dates.

One of my fav place in the entirety of Delhi. Mashed within a cute book shop (Oxford) and serving more than 100 varieties of tea and nice food which is also economical. The place buzzes with youngsters and young at heart alike and the service and the people who serve are amazing.

You'll never guess where Cha Bar is! Located inside the Oxford Bookstore, Cha Bar offers an elegant and rustic vibe to it's diners with only a handful of serving and kitchen staff. Their menu features a wide range of beverages, especially Chai, and hence the name. They also serve an ample variety of continental and Indian appetizers and desserts to accompany your Chai. We ended up ordering a Ginger tea which could've been a bit stronger, but we really loved the Masala Chai and the Blueberry Cheesecake! Overall, Cha Bar offers a haven to the avid bookworms on a shopping spree in Oxford to have a quick read.

Pathetic service. I have never experienced this kind of bad behaviour by any staff at any other cafe. They took too long to make just a cold coffee. We had to remind them so many times. Seriously unprofessional staff. Milkshake tastes very bad. Never gonna recommend this place.

So here comes my favourite breakfast spot in central Delhi. Cha bar which is pretty amazing and beautiful place especially for book lovers. I love the ambiance of this place. And yes food also. They serve best food in best prices. Their coffee tea everything is amazing. Much much recommended place

Nice small place for brunch or quick bite. It's inside Oxford bookstore and they have very good collection. Ambience is very nice. The best part is the service team, they are dedicated and cheerful. The food is nicely prepared and tasty.

One of the best restaurant/cafe in Connaught Place as well as in Delhi. Tucked inside the Oxford Book Store, it has a wonderful vibe. It gets a bit crowded in the evening but the wait times are not long. There are scores and scores of different types of teas and brews you can try as well a large number of side accompaniments like burgers, pastas, pizzas, sandwiches and cakes. Excellent service and reasonable wait times. I've been here so many times. Prices are also very reasonable. One of the best options for a date or a chill time when in Connaught Place.

Near gate no.5 Rajiv chowk metro station. Coffee was just 70% ice ans 30% coffee..Food is okayish not that great there was not much of ventilation the air conditioning was not working and it was very crowded. If you're a book lover the Oxford library is great to search through. I'd recommend it only for hang out with friends over chai and books nothing much.

Just went for evening tea while taking a stroll on CP, service is very slow even though all the tables are not occupied and they have around 4-5 staff for this narrow cafe. The menu is really vast and detailed with a plethora of teas but the normal ginger tea itself is served in the tiniest aesthetic cups filled three fourths of the way, not worth the price per cup IMO, also non existent ginger flavor. I am not sure if we can ask them to customize the tea, I didnt try, but I wished I could ask for the ginger tea to be made strong with less milk and sugar. Would not be visiting this place again, there's a Chaayos nearby as well. Ambience is great, love the light fixtures, it is really narrow but it is connected to the Oxford Book store so you will not get bored while waiting for your teas to arrive, we went to the bookstore, browsed, bought a book and sat back down before our tea was served.

This is very nice place. In cannaught place this place is far much better in comparison to CCD, Starbucks like. You can spend here 3 to 4 hours and can have a lot to eat. Cha Bar have a very big menu. Walnuts cake, Vanila and strawberry 🍓 shake is my favourite. There is a lot to eat. Must go there.

Beautiful Collection of BOOKs at oXFord book store which is attached to the dine in place. Interior is Nice. Staff are polite. Place is a big hype. Food was tasteless. Cold Coffee was extremely sweet and watery! White Sauce Pasta was tasteless.we didn't order after this, even though we were not full. And Left from there Oxford book store is good to get Pictures clicked and the Cha Bar is a good place to waste your money.😅

I have been going to this place for over 7 years now and this place never disappoints me. What more? It's a cafe inside a library. They serve a lot of variety of tea and the good is amazing!🤌 It is not noisy/loud there so it's a good place to have good conversations.

Place is nice for short meetups with friends over a cup of tea or coffee. Interior and book stalls added flavors to location and for getting good clicks there. Food items are good in taste and on pocket. I like chicken sandwich and samosa the best. The only issue I found is that place is very crowded and if there is a meetup of more than 5 people then it will take time to get 2 tables together and to combine them. For more updates.

The atmosphere was Nice. As it was a library cafe. There was a huge collection of books and the food was nice too. The staff was polite. But the books there were on MRP and not worth to buy from there as you can find the same books online at much discount. Although a nice place to visit.

Latest visit 2023: the service is still poor. There was a single person taking all orders and serving food. They took quite a lot of time to get our order ready We had the passionfruit bubble tea, which was good enough, nothing special. The hindustani veg burger was good, the bun was very thick. And we had the falafel platter which was the worst falafel I've ever had, it was super dry. Small sitting area, very crowded, poor service. The staff forgets to get your order but adds it to the bill. Food is nice though, the vada pav is a must try. Service and staff need improvement. Love the chocolate truffle they have.

It's a good place. The prices were pretty budget friendly and it is located in the Oxford Bookstore.

I and my bestie went to have lunch at Cha Bar and all over it was a good experience. The combination of cafe and bookstore together is what we feel is the best combination. We ordered a total of 4 items. Ice Lemon Tea - Tasty (4.5/5) Falafel With Hummus - Delicious (5/5) Paneer Tikka Pizza - Cheesy and Crispy (4.5/5) White Sause Pasta - okay (4/5) The only problem was that it was overcrowded and way too much noisy. Maybe we went on a Saturday so we got too much crowd. But apart from that everything was good and beautiful.

Char Bar cafe cum Oxford book store, situated on the outskirts of Connaught Place near Barakhamba road is a perfect place for all the chai lovers and book worms. This place has delicious flavours of chai and amazing breakfast options without burning a hole in your pocket. The ambience too is great and one can relish some moments of peace after work or can be accompanied by friends/family. Although it’s competitors Chaayos and Chai Point are all nearby 😂 but the oxford book store and cheap food here makes the difference #chabar #barakhambaroad #connaughtplace #chailovers #oxfordbookstore

Best for tea n snacks. Widest range of tea from regular to most premium categories. Must visit

only cha

I don't know why people go there, earlier it was peaceful place but from last two years it is one of crowded place that no one can imagine, like a school class where teachers used to say fish market 😆. Again I had worst ever tea that one can imagine.

Food is really tasty and yet affordable. The ambience is really peaceful. They sell books and at the corner there is a cafe. You can enjoy food and then shop some amazing and creative items like handmade bags or notebooks. A paradise for book lovers

Simply put, a nice warm cozy place for good food and bibliophiles, getting a share of best of both worlds. The place is located within Oxford Book Store in CP. We tried 3 items on the menu and all the items were good to go! Chicken Sandwich, Peach Ice Tea, Red Velvet Cake The food was on point and delicious with generous proportions. The menu is extensive and offers good food at really competitve prices, can be said econimical and not heavy on pocket. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area and looking for hlod quick bite. They also offer quick indian snacks like Samosa, Cutlets, etc.

Few weeks ago I visited this outlet which is located at the heart of New delhi - Connaught place or commonly known as CP. The outlet has a beautiful hall fully dedicated to showcasing love towards books. Behind the hall is the outlet which hardly have 50 60 covers. Not much of a seating but perfectly defines cha bar. I had 2 different types of ice teas (blackcurrant and peach one ) peach one was good but the blackcurrant one needs a major revamp. I ordered pizza also which taste okayish but could have been better. The crust seems little dry and the toppings were not properly baked too. Still it was manageable but do take this point into consideration. Overall experience was fine but food could have been better. Just give little attention and maybe you can see some miracle ;)

Lovely place with great budget! Must try: Drinks-Bubble tea, Green tea, Cold coffee, Cappuccino, Chai. Food- Pizzas, Shwarma Wrap, Breakfast Combo, Fries Basket, Cottage Cheese Sandwich, Samosa Sandwich, Pies. Sweets- Almost Everything Available. Not so good: Pasta, Burgers.

This is the best place to relax , reading books enjoy with your family and friends. And their food is very tasty like mouthwatering 🤤😍.

Ambience is good, Food is good and pretty affordable comparing to other restaurants in that area, also it is inside the Oxford book store, so for those who love books, its a good place to spend some hours

This is the place for bibliophiles! Spending few hours at this place is worth. The food served at the cha bar is quite good and easy on the pocket. The dining spacr is bit congested but you'll get a table of you've patience. Staff is polite and service is good.

Nice place to relax with friends and family. The cha bar blend tea and mint iced tea tastes really good with bun maska. The french fries were crispy and the Margherita pizza was also good.

If you are lucky you will get a place to sit on Saturday evening. it has an unmatched energy of any cafe I have encountered in sometime, the space filled with chatter and cups clinging. The staff is quite attentive and swift in fulfilling the order. The food is reasonably priced. I loved the fish and chips here. Do try!!

The place is very nice, feels like a library with in-built cafe, the food is great and is very pocket friendly, thay have various books and also have some stalls having jewellery which supports a noble cause. The service was quite fast seeing the amount of people there were. I loved the place visit again soon. Just one advice add some good thick shakes to the menu. The place has not discounts on any of the apps(Dineout, Magicpin, Eazydiner) but it's very pocket friendly

Good ambience but not spacious. The Oxford library outside is also beautiful. Even the gaurd their was very humble. Food is average. Service is also not good. chocolate boat is recommended. Lovely ambience and the crowd is also fine.

Ideal place to have conversation with your friends over shakes or chai. It's a book lovers cafe and is paradise of books. Have a collection of English novels along with diaries, memo pads, fridge magnets, junkies, etc.

Cha Bar is the first Tea Cafes of its kind. It had first started in Kolkata. I had always seen this cafe from the Oxford Bookstore that I visited a couple of times which adjoins it, but I could never actually visit this Cafe and experience the food and the atmosphere. When I first visited and opened the Menu, I was surprised by the wide and diverse variety of tea offered on the menu, and that's when I realised that it is 'Cha Bar' for a reason and not just a fancy name. It also serves small nibbles, coffee, summer coolers and other food items. I liked the vibe of the place. The staff is nice and polite.I also liked the food items available and surely want to try some day. I had only had the Bubble milkshake which was kinda disappointing keeping in mind the innovative way it is served. It was just average, ofcourse there is this excitement and curiosity to burst and taste all the flavoured bubbles. Nevertheless I want to visit the cafe again and try other items on the menu.

Chicken tikka pizza was bland Pesto pasta was extremely low on salt, seasoning could also not save it Bubble Tea was okayish-nothing great, we tried the passionfruit flavor Ice tea was nice

The ambience is amazing, location is great, I tried Cardamom Tea, not that good. Fish cutlets with French fries was good.

This cafe is very good to spend with friends and families, the structure of this cafe is so interesting. Even the lots of books available in this cafe as well as a vast variety of snacks like Cardamom Tea, Fish Cutlets, Lamb Meat Balls & French Fries etc!

Love this place. Its a calming place to amidst the city crowd. Have a sip of your favorite cha which they have a vast variety of with some delicious snacks. I loved the lamb meat balls.

About environment and vibes A good place to chill with friends and if you like to read than definitely worth a shot. About food Although the food experience I had wasn't satisfying... Price & All is good but worst tomato pasta experience i have ever had.

All time favourite place to enjoy coffee and ambiance is very good sweet fragrance in the atmosphere. Not to costly and taste is good. Must try once you won't be disappointed. I never found so many varieties of tea under a roof. Maintaining the covid precautions. I loved it.

A very gud place to hangout with attached Oxford book store . Food is gud and pricing is also well. Little crowded all the times and sittig can be improved, otherwise vibes are real gud. About food lot of varieties of teas available an my fav is cutting tea. Go there must visit place.

Perfect place for book readers n hanging out with ur friends at the same time

A little beautiful cafe located in N block along with Oxford book store inside. We ordered bun maska, cottage cheese sandwich, thandai and raspberry iced tea. Everything was good except the iced tea which was too sweet. A nice place to hang out with friends especially for books lovers.

Amazing place

Poor service

Nice place for hangout in cp

Lots of good tea flavors

A good place to hang out, but very slow services. No one is available to take the order, and then if you place the order u have to wait for another half an hour to get it. Pleaseeeeee make your services fast and quick as no one like there food to come late. And for sure am not coming back here any time soon. Worst experience anyone can have in matter of the service.

Nice

Cottage cheese sandwich in very nice sandwich

Awesome 😎

House next door with homely snacks.

Amazing place to hangout with friends. Highly recommended.

Certainly one of the best places in CP to go on the first date if you want a classy and pocket friendly date. Varieties of Tea plus the food is amazing..been there so many times..

A must visit place, preferably during evenings because of the ambience and lighting, the food and tea were okayish but yeah the ambience along with the OXFORD bookstore will surely catch bibliophiles attention.

Great bookstore but the food has been disappointing lately

Nice atmosphere

Poor cleanliness and hygiene. Food was fine.

Had a great time with my friend here.

Ambience is real nice with the book store

Service was too Good also food

Nice place to go with friends, nice food. Will recommend. :)

great dude.... great deal with a great feel

Food was so cold

The place is good for spending time. They have a library with variety of books to read from. The menu is also vast with a variety of chais to choose from. The ambience is good too. Milk shakes snacks are must. The only problem is the place is usually crowded with lots of people. Sometimes you have to wait to get a table and even after ordering it takes some time for delivery. Nice concept. Budget friendly place.

If you are a bookworm and a coffee addict, you would not find a place better than this!

They offer you wide variety of ice tea and snacks and black current is worth trying. As a book lover i really appreciate the place and one can sit , read books and enjoy the vibes there.

I have been to this place n number of times. Every time I tend to like it even more.

No quantity and not tasty.

Food's good and at a reasonable price.

Nice place but it was too crowded which is not helping the pandemic situation.

Very good place, always come with alone.thank you Coffe nice, pasta super nice, price also nice, waiter also nice. Gg good place, come again. fo

Peaceful ❤

I didn't like the food. The pizza I ordered had green chutney on it.😂😂 Shakes and cold coffee were nice. The food they surve you can make it in your home.

Yum non alcoholic drinks, very decent and elegent place.

Must try I love it Pocket friendly

Good place for books n cahi lovers

Nice place but too crowded

Quality and quantity has decreased drastically after covid. The chicken club sandwich were bland and filled with extra mayo. Fish n chips were bland as well, no tartare dip was available with it.

Didn't like the pasta much but chai was great. Great for having a conversation with your friend over a chai and books.

Pretty good & budget friendly restaurant in the heart of Delhi. Must try their Samosa Sandwich & Hot chocolate and also chocolate pastry. Not recommend their pasta as it's average. Overall a nice place to hangout with your special ones & if you're a book lover and do this place a visit.

A very good ambience, moderately priced food but the taste of pizza could have been improved. Overall, was provided with good service.

Yeah...for hanging out in fancy bar....that also in CP....It is nice and affordable....and book Store is there too...so if anyone love to read it is no peaceful...❤️

Loved this place. It's inside the Oxford Bookstore thats makes it popular among people who love to have tea-coffee while reading. Cha-Bar serves you with varieties of tea from Darjeeling and snacks. The cost is so minimal and food is so filling. I loved the Green Apple Soda. Ambience gives a look of old British restro at country-side.

Beautiful cafe. Lively ambience. I personally liked the vibrant colours inside the cafe. Variety of Books and other stationary items. Tried Cold coffee and Black current smoothie and it was served the best way. They only accept cash or card online payment is not available here.

Good ambience and reasonable food. Overall good experience

Presentation and taste of the food was simply superb.The beverages were really refreshing. A perfect place beside the bookstore.

An affordable place in CP to have beverages and snacks. They have a wide variety of teas and coffees to choose from. The place was crowded when we went there. Peach iced tea and wrap were average. Their pasta and cold coffee were good. The place is small and the staff is usually very busy.

I visited this place first time with my special friend the best place for meet greets food was decent like the coffee and pasta which I tried also iced we're also good those who don't want to have any thing they can go with iced tea also pizza . Enjoy 💖🥲

This is my go to place for coffee and when I want to spend some me time. Its a heaven for book lovers and I totally recommend this place.

It is an awesome place. You can buy books from the bookstore. You can't read books for free there. The cha bar was awesome, their sandwiches were yummy. Though they don't have a lot of options in food. They do have a lot of tea there, different kinds. The pizza was also really good. It was thin crust.

visited here number of times. the place is good for good with friends and even office colleagues. their presentation is good. but they have one bad point that you have a wait for your turn for 15 mins.

Located in the outer circle, CP, this is a great place to hang out with friends or loved ones, take a quick bite while in CP. Also, a nice place for book lovers'— the oxford book store is just adjacent to the cafe selling several genres of books- from fictional stories to kids' comics to history. Had samosa and tea (plain milk and Assam tea with sugar). The only downside was that there was no water in the washroom.

The ambiance is really nice and its a oxford book store... The basil pasta was lacking salt in it so i didnt like it much But the chiken tikka pizza was tasty , but portion size was small it had just 4 slices. The juice was refreshing.. especially the blackcurrant ice tea.

Budget friendly and nice ambience. Best for breakfast. Basil pasta sandwich and basil pesto pasta is just great. Although the alfredo pasta is not worth it. Ice teas are perfect.

I ordered a peach bubble tea A veg Ceaser salad Basil pesto sauce pasta Food was average as per my pallet This place has beautiful ambience and a wide variety of books that you can read and buy Loved the ambience It is inside Oxford book library The staff is very hardworking and helpful

It is located inside the Oxford bookstore with a cool and serene ambience. Great place to sit and enjoy with friends. I quite like the variety on their drinks menu and the flavors were soothing as well as everything was present in just the right amount. Usually a good place to hang out after exploring the book store and for me it became a place of sharing similar interests with fellow booklovers.

The place has very good ambience and setup with the book store right across the wall. But the good things end here, extremely rude staff with no help if someone wants to even charge their laptops or mobile phone. There were multiple charging points but none of them worked. It would have been good if they considered a customer's plight too.

The place is nice because it's right inside the Oxford store. So very good for bibliophiles. But apart from that, it's very crowded and finding a place to sit in the weekend is quite hard. Food was good. It's mostly affordable and worth the money. I personally won't recommend the Chicken Shawarma though. They have an extensive menu of tea though so tea lovers can definitely check that. Service was good and staff quite helpful.

A good place but it could improve drastically. Some food items are good but some are really bad. The staff is courteous enough and the service is good but the atmosphere is not good at all. It has too many tables in very less space and there is too much noise of people talking, sometimes you can't hear the person sitting right in front of youproperly. The drinks are good and the price is reasonable.
