While the taste is good, the store is a SCAM. They often sell their eateries very close to date of expiry and sometimes sell expired items. So, make sure to check the date of expiry for all items you purchase!Dont believe these guys.. for such a reputed bakery, they sure do sell expired eateries.ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED AND MY DISAPPOINTMENT KNOWS NO BOUNDS!!

Gets a little crowded and the staff isnt sure of what cakes theyre selling but they did help out, make sure theyre wearing their masks properly.I saw the cashier ask a customer to wear theirs properly which was great!Decent collection of baked goods, but their puffs run out very earlyTry the regular cakes, not creme fraiche.

We wanted a fresh cream chocolate cake with decorations on top for a birthday. The staff answered that its not possible to do fancy decorations on fresh cream cakes, they can only do on Butter cream . We are living in 2021 btw

We ordered white color butterscotch pudding cake for daughters birthday but they delivered mix of white and yellow. Their price in catalogue and the bill price has vast difference around 200/-per kg. While collecting the cake, when we enquired about the difference in amount, no-one has answer and not responded properly. Even they dont have birthday card to write name and the wish. Taste was very good. Overall I had the worst experience.

Typical McRennett - Kodambakkam. Medira Cake boxes were less. Assorted flavor choices were less.Otherwise you can find all that you want in this McRennett. Though their quality has nose-dived over years, they continue to maintain the flavor and patronage of Chennai-ites :)

Worst customer service experienced, Bought Cheeze Puffs , nothing stuffed inside it, poor quality food baked especially Puffs

Review №34

Was one of the most famous places for a cake at a point. It used to be standard protocol to wait for my father on my birthday to go to McRennett for a cake and gobble it up together as a family. With a lot of choice now, the number of people still relying only this joint has reduced but the crowds can still be seen during office hours and school hours. Ideal for a quick bite like puffs and pastries. The service is also pretty nice and once while buying cake for my father they were kind enough to secretly put a few extra words I requested despite it being quite the tiny cake. Im forever grateful for that. Oh yea! Pista(pistachios) cake is a favourite of my mums.For me its a place of memories and sweet stuff.

Very worst experience even at the time of Covid spread. They are not attending to customers who are standing in the queue maintaining social distance for billing. They only attends to those who rush to the counter, not maintaining queue or social distancing encouraging a crowd in front of counter.

Good & fine. Cake shop should remove the old or expired food and cake items periodically. Customer buying food item must view de date of packing and expiry date. Be cautiousEspecially, the college students. The shop is very near to Meenakshi women college. Service OK. Watch the Bread and Ban items due dates. After that only U vl buy the eatables.
