Mast Punjabi & Fusion Lebanese: Go Eat At These Places Around HCU
Ants Cafe
Tucked away inside the busy lanes of Gachibowli near Urdu University is a quaint, and scenic eatery called Ants Cafe. It is calm and gorgeous — perfect for dates with bae and best friend. This looks like a glasshouse, and if you're up for a quiet time, you've got to get here. Go for their Stuffed Vol-Au-Vent (a cheesy puff pastry), Upside-Down Blueberry Cheesecake in a jar, Tiramisu, Chamomile Tea, and Peach Tea.
Cafe De Loco
This rustic looking Goan shack themed restaurant will fill the void in your heart for all the times you've been to Goa without your doggie partner. At Cafe De Loco in Gachibowli, you can connect with dog parents and their pooches as their pet school. But wait, there's more. They have a separate pet kitchen that offers doggie approved food. Isn't that amazing?
Marley's Joint
If you're craving for quick bites, look no further than Marley's Joint. This tiny quaint vegetarian deli serves a variety of Lebanese and vegan dishes too. With paintings on the walls, streamers, and colorful accents, this place legit has Bob Marley feels and we love it for that. Super budget friendly, you cannot stop at one of their salads or wraps. Love From Lebanon, Shroom Addiction, and a hearty PBJ, you can expect good food and learn how to play guitar too, if you have that kind of time.
Driven Cafe
Bikers, gear-heads, and coffee lovers – head to Driven Café in Gachibowli if you haven’t already to rent sportscars and superbikes for a ride. Known for its selfie coffee and rugged (and grungy) ambience, this cafe is where you can chill out. Like properly. You can pair your drinks with nibbles like chili garlic cheese sandwich, toasts, and brownies. The best part is Driven Cafe is open till 12 am so if you're craving coffee at midnight, you know where to go.
The Fisherman's Wharf
Find a little bit of Goa in Hyderabad at The Fisherman's Wharf. Find your way through the seafood and Goan delicacies, and call it a party. But if you love desserts or the Goan-specialty, Bebinca, this might be the only place in the city where you can grab a bite of it. All of this in a buffet? Yaaas!
Sardarji's Dhaba
The fact that Sardarji's Dhaba makes traditional Punjabi food that makes you even lick your fingers is what makes it awesome. If comfort food is what you're seeking, make haste for lunch hour is their busiest and you might have to fight your way to find a table. But when you do, start your meal with Special Dahi Bhalla and move on to Chicken Seekh Kebab. Known for juicy kebabs, this iconic joint also makes mindblowing Mutton Galouti Kebab and Boti Kebab.
