Quiet coffee shops in Bangalore
Not every café in Bangalore is for laptops and lunch meetings. There's a quieter category — small rooms with low music, single-table seating, a copy of a magazine on the bar, and a barista who knows your name by the third visit. The kind of café you read in. Roasters currently counts 40 cafés in Bangalore, #1 in India.
These are the rooms locals go to with a book. Roasters surfaces them so you can find a focused morning in Bangalore without ending up in a brunch queue.
