Rates are little high for the quantity of food, but love the taste and freshness of the food.

Very clean and tasty Bakery products. Sometimes they sell the previous days left overs. That irritates us.

Located on the TTK Road they provide Very hygienic and freshly baked pastries. It’s worth the visit but the price is little bit high.Banana bread , Cinnamon Bomb and Coconut buns are yummy! 😍Breads are also good and wish they could at-least provide a best before date for the items

Very good find in exquisite gourmet Bakery chain. Store in Alwarpet and Ashok nagar is very clean.Breads, muffins are tasty and is soft on little tummies.Reducing 1 star for lack of variety of confectionery.Definitely worth a visit !!!

A bakery that sells a variety of breads.The aroma of breads will invite you once you step in. I have so far tried their Danish and blueberry custard, banana bread, cereal bread, croissants , chicken puffs, Chill Cheese puffs and coconut bun. Puffs are just ok and the rest are good. They have sandwiches too and hope to try them sometime. I have tried Hotbreads ,French loaf and Ovenfresh in Chennai and I like this a little more than the others. Its expensive than the other ones above.

The bakery is really good. Has a great variety of breads of almost every type. Decent amount of pastries, croissants and cakes are available.It also has cheese, meat, jams and other kinds of spreads.Price is a bit substantial. Higher middle range.Drinks and Food are only available for takeaway at the moment. No in-dining option yet at this outlet.The outlet is easily visible from the main road. But parking is limited. Space only for two cars and some bikes.

Worst experience. The place was empty but they said all the tables were booked. We were around waiting for our friends to join but no one showed up for those booked tables.

I love their wheat bread. Then why do I give such a rating? Its because of the way a staff treated me today when I visited this branch.There is a huge difference on how the staff treats their customers based on ones looks and language. When someone talks in english they respond in a polite manner but Whenever I go here and talk in tamil they are rude and treats me as if I shouldnt even step inside this shop. Today, I asked, bro, multi grain bread suthama gaali ah? (Is the multi grain bread completely over?) He was wearing his glove and sighed and said yes, Sutthama gaali ( in a irritated tone) Also, I made my payment through gpay and I showed my screen to the staff to acknowledge the payment and he didnt even see it and made a hand gesture like, Hes your bread, take it and leave. I told I made the payment. He repeated the same. I didnt want to create a scene over there as people were waiting to buy.Its great that your bread is fresh baked but it would be great if you teach some manners and basic etiquettes on how to treat the customers equally because Im not paying a penny less than those who speak in English. It would be great if the team addresses this concern.

A great coffee place in Chennai. Their coffee is great. I guess its a dark roast. Try the black coffee and the cappuccino.There isnt a lot of place to sit down and enjoy your coffee.

After reading many good reviews, decided to check out this place on a pleasant summer day. The aroma of this bakery is awesome.I realised how poor the quality of breads are, after tasting their breads. I would make sure to go to this place again and again and again.The ambiance is fairly nice especially with the woodwork sitting acting as an interesting charm. There is just a single big table but this place is more ideal for takeaways.Ordered butter croissant: They just melted in their mouth.Garlic toast: Immense pleasure while tasting with sauces.Margarita pizza: Too good though it seems very pricey.Banana bread: This was the best so far. Couldnt stop eating honestlyAlso tried their hot chocolate which was just different from that of others.I just walked home with total satisfaction. Cheers to OMBC!!

The Chocolate chip cookies are to die for! Definitely a must-have. The pound cake is also quite nice. Overall, a good bakery for not too-over-the-top cakes.

We had bagels with cream cheese in it. It wasnt that great when compared to the last time we had it. But it was good in terms of taste. But it could have been better.

Review №27

Love their Brioche Bread (priced quite high though), Country Loaf bread and Butter Croissants - atleast one of them is part of our breakfast every week. The staff are very courteous and the place is quite clean. Worth a visit to experiment with what you like.Negatives:- They have a daily/weekly home delivery option but its ridiculously expensive.- Their prices are higher on Swiggy - go buy directly at the shop.

Review №28

They still maintain social distancing rules. Sandwiches are pretty simple, yet quite pricey. Not for the regular Joe. Good variety of cheeses at times. May not be available at all times. Bread is freshly made everyday. Im not a big fan of breads, so I find it pretty simplistic.

Appreciate the quality that they maintain over the years. Apart from the usual stuff available everywhere few items are really good where you cant find them anywhere with the same quality. Custard danish, choco chip cake, caramel babka cake, victoria cake etc. My personnel favorites are victoria cake , custard danish and 3 cheese melt sandwich. Also a very kind person called Durai anna who does a very good job there. Always I call for him whenever I visit there. No one makes a really good cheese sandwich like he does. I order cheese sandwiches only when he is available.

One of the best bakeries in Chennai. Their breads are exquisite. The must try ones are the croissants, brioche, potato rosemary sourdough and the Victorian sandwich. These are a few favorites though just about anything is brilliant. Will always get back here after a taste. Though if u want to have a good choice the best time to go is in the morning between 9:00 and 10:00 AM as in the evening by 4:00 they are almost sold out.

More of a retail outlet of gourmet snacks and cheese than a bakery. Good ambience though. Whats with the big dining table instead of individual small tables? Self service. Food is good. Breads are nice.

Just loved the taste.. Have their own special menu and all of them are great. Loved the cinnamon roll and the Danish custard.. They dont have any cream layered cakes as they are against it, but they have their own way to compensate things with that and believe me its great. You can have breads or other baked items

One of the best cafes in the city. The setting has a made-up colonial feel. The bakery is fascinating and some of the products are freshly made in the cafe. A large window offers a calming view of the busy street outside.

Went in at 11:00 a.m. To grab brunch. But was unable to stay for more than a couple of minutes because it was so hot in there. Do not recommend during the summer months. They have specialty breads made with different grains that are interesting to try.

One of Chennais best bakeries having a large variety of items to choose from. Owned by the Sandies restaurant, the quality of products are reliable and of the highest quality. All bakery items are made fresh in-house and you can even see the oven cooking them.They also have other items to buy that accompany their baked items, such as jams, pickles, cheese, pasta etc., which are also sourced from among the best producers from within the country and abroad.Highly recommended!

Review №87

A wonder place that smells of cinnamon and coffee. Now if thats not enticing enough, then what is? Fresh, handmade dough baked into breads and cakes, Puffs and pizzas that are gut friendly and snacks that are organic and pocket friendly. The fig and honey crackers and the snack bar are a must try. If you can stretch a bit more then grab the jams and pickles too. A place to go back to Everytime you crave something healthy. The coffee is fresh filter south indian coffee served in davras(traditional coffee drinking vessel).
