Country Roads Restaurant & Service Apartment - Restaurant in Pune - Pune, India

Country Roads Cafe, Wanowrie (Salunkhe Vihar road) The place is absolutely beautiful and cozy, with loads of character. Comfy sofas, bright warm lighting, loads of wall hangings, quotes, a huge world map and most importantly, a colourful painting of their golden retriever, Bruno. Whom you can meet at the cafe, if he's not asleep! The outside seating though, is simple and unassuming. The place isn't luxurious, but a really nice place to be. The amazing music, classic rock and hits from my college days (which always helps) as well as the occasional live music, just adding a whole lot in the 'feel' of the place. The food is simple and non-pretentious, with something for everybody. This place is perfect for college kids and youngsters, but the young at heart will enjoy this place as well. There is a mix of Indian, a bit of Indo-Chinese, pizzas, pastas and range of shakes, teas and coffees. The food isn't super refined or exclusive, but very simple typical food we all crave once in a while. Given the pricing, it's pretty much perfect. DRINKS - We tried the Chocolate Chip Shake and Kesar-Badam Frappe which were so good. Creamy, frothy and tasty. Pineapple juice was refreshing but 'Turkish Delight' coffee wasn't that great. SNACKS Veg Crostini Sandwich - An amazing open sandwich full of cheese, bell peppers, jalapenos. Basically like a pizza sandwich. Really good. Olio Veg Exotica Pizza - Quite good. The base, in house made, was a bit hard and thick. If it was thinner I think it would have been great. The toppings were were full of videsi vegetables, topped with loads of cheese. But there was like a spiced mayo as well, which didn't taste that great and no tomato sauce was in sight. This was like a very typical college cafe pizza, enjoyable, but not exceptional. Pink Pasta - Simple as that! Penne in a typical pink sauce, with loads of vegetables and herbs, so it had loads of flavour. Nothing authentic, but cheesy, creamy, tasty and satisfying. Chicken Shawarma - This wasn't that good. The chicken wasn't flavourful nor smokey and it was just mixed with mayo and vegetables inside a Khaboos. It was more like a Chicken Mayo wrap. This needs work, especially considering the massive competition for excellent shawarma's in the area. NON-VEG STARTERS Tunday Kabab was a surprise and were really good! They weren't super authentic, I think (I haven't had the original so I don't know), but the flavour was amazing, they were soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside with mild spices and great texture. They tasted great with the naan. Ketchup on the side was a bit disappointing, would have loved some minty green chutney. Chicken Malai Kebab - Classic, creamy, subtle and smokey, topped with cheese. Not the juiciest, but really nice, and the accompanying sweet raita was great too. MAINS - The Indian mains blew us away. Butter Chicken - Really amazing, this. Not sweet, rich gravy, buttery with a great flavour of whole spices. I would rate this as one of the better Butter Chicken's of Pune. Mughlai Paneer - Another smash hit. Mildly spiced onion based gravy full of garam masala and richness of cream and butter. Really soul satisfying curry. DESSERT The Sizzling Brownie with ice cream was quite nice. The Shahi Tukda does need some work. It was served at room temperature and just lacked flavour. It had all the elements in theory but somehow just didn't taste great. VERDICT I think despite it's flaws, Country Roads is an excellent cafe and restaurant to hang out. The food is simple and typical cafe fare, but really tasty and satisfying to have. The Indian food is just incredible. The pricing especially, makes it totally worth it. It is the perfect spot of college goers, youngsters and, like I've said, young at heart! Service does need work, as they are understaffed and it was quite slow. It is one of those places that in spite of having shortcomings, you still like a lot and enjoy..

My busy schedule just did not allow me to get my eyes on this cafe till I got a invitation for food tasting. Country Roads Cafe located on Salunke Vihar road is a very cozy cafe with interiors never seen before all these days. The outside space is all green with colorful chairs. The inside view stole my heart. Each corner had a story to share. The minute I entered my eyes saw the beautiful chairs with a backrest in shape of circle with a vintage clock dial. They have one corner for recreation with books, games, cards etc. They also have another sitting space with sofa set for a more personal table experience. The walls are very pretty with beautiful work done to make it look different overall. The cafe owner has a golden retriever pup who is a heart throb for all who come. I enjoyed playing with BRUNO. Their food too is good with a unique touch given to all. I loved the Oreo Cookies Shake and burger to begin with. Their Chicken Korma in main course was too good. In desserts don't miss the Shahi Tukda. So well flavored with all dry fruits and kesar. I visited during the day but seeing the ambiance and the food I am sure that the night life here would be equally amazing.

Very colourful & vibrant cafe at Salunke Vihar, Pune. Huge range of cuisines to select from! Loved - Pink Pasta, Pizza, Kebabs, Mughlai Paneer, Butter Chicken! The owner along with his staff are very humble & friendly. Service is quick. Would love to visit again with friends.

Small cafe nestled right on the busy road next to a food mart is hard to miss. The entrance is marked by some bright red signage attracting you to it. The place certainly appears small but has an outside, shade sitting area as well as comfortable air conditioning sitting too. The interiors are vibrant with graffiti, photos and a world atlas wall paper. The visit, though our first, was overall a good experience, except the service aspect. We started with and unsweetened Ginger ale which was truly well made. Aftertaste of ginger was coming out through and through. Along with it, we had blueberry lime soda spritzer. Well combined, flavourful drink. The starters we ordered were, chicken shawarma roll and a paneer shawarma roll. Both were tender, well spiced, perfectly cooked and combined with sauces and pickled onions, they were delicious. Then we went and ordered their sizzlers, a new introduction on their menu. We ordered a chicken and stirred noodles sizzler and a chicken and mushroom sizzler. Both sizzlers were done good. Chicken perfectly done in both. The noodles served in one of them, were actually more tastier than the rice served with the chicken mushroom sizzler. They also have a well made chicken tikka and tandoori chicken platter. Must try here. We finished the meal with paneer tikka 'biryani'. Thev masala in this was flavourful, but the tikka needed little work and some seasoning too. The dessert was the staple, goovy, sizzling brownie with ice cream, topped with strawberry. One can't go wrong in this. Nice place to visit, which also has a hookah on demand, and live music performance on select week days.
