SideWalk Coffee Shop - Cafe in S S Colony, Madurai - , India

Very too much cost for fried rice in Madurai Rs.375...., But not variety, single flavour only. Pls try combo... (200rs. Combo with fried rice)

This is one of the most inhuman place I have ever visited in Madurai. Madurai, being a place know for its culture and hospitality it is an irony this place(Side walk Cafe) exist in Madurai. Not once, but twice when I had a quick catch up with my friends and colleagues, I was asked to leave the place just after we completed out order (after having our juice/ soup) Apparently the management will only allow you to dine without talking. I'm not sure who frames such interesting rules like this. Ideally this place should not be open to public at all, if they wanted to operate with such condition. I would discourage anyone to visit this place, considering the attitude the staff and the way they treat their customers. I made the mistake visiting this place more than twice just because the place is near my home. There is nothing comment worthy to share about the food hence refraining to comment regarding the same. This place is a disgrace , ideally the owners need to sell this or lease it to someone who really know the ethos of Cafes. Reply to you comment sir - 1. The Cafe was not crowded 2. We did not order just a juice and stick in your premises. 3. Please learn the basic etiquettes of customer service before blaming your customers. We are not freeloader coming to your business establishment. Thank you, No thank you !

Would have given 0 star or half star. Unfortunately there isn't that option. If you don't want people insulting you after you pay them for food and beverages do stay away from this place.

Worst experience. To start of with their ambience, uncomfortable seatings they have doesn't give you a relaxed feel. In the peak summer, the temperature they maintain within the cafe is pathetic. Coming to food, even a small bakery will serve nice delicious cakes and coffee. We ordered one chocolate vennila cake and one chocolate truffle cake from fresh cream pastries, one coffee and a fresh fruit salad. I've never tasted such a bad chocolate vanilla cake. It was so dry and hard. My friend had the coffee and called it a paayasam(south Indian sweet). The punch/bitterness we expect in the coffee was missing completely. It was loaded with sugar. The fruit salad quantity was completely unacceptable for that price. Three small pieces of banana, pineapple, papaya, black seeded grapes and majority was watermelon. They serve this in a soup bowl. We went there so that we could munch something yummy and relax but it was absolute disappointment.

The pastries here are wonderful.. this coffee shop if part of a 3 start hotel..

This is one of the two restaurants attached to Germanus Inn. It is not just a coffee shop. They do have restaurant with good combo meals and bakery inside. Tried parotta and curry. Taste was good. Price was not high like you expect at star hotels. So do check out.

This is a place I frequent whenever I want to dine peacefully away from the hustle and bustle. Usually this place is not crowded. Service is slow. But food is excellent. Prices are also just moderate. The environment is also nice and clean. Only problem is you have to walk all the way to the hotel's main lobby if you want to use the bathroom. Car parking is not at all a problem. I wish these guys spend some money on advertising and bring in more crowd and make more money. They fully deserve to be more popular and successful.

The place was not airconditioned nor there were any fans. Had to chase behind the waiter to order. Waited for a while to get 50rs teas with cream(aadai) on top.
