Review β„–2

One word to describe this place :Delicious!! The cafe is located at Hazratganz. The cafe is neat and clean with soothing ambience and is famous for the basket chaat, which by presentation itself looks delicious. The Basket chat consists of edible basket, dhai, tikki,namkeen etc. A must visit place if you are chaat lover or visiting lucknow.

It is just an assortment of 5-6 items in a single basket. Now, assortment doesnt mean that everything assorted has taste or something out of the world. I personally liked the uncle who serves but when it comes to the Basket chaat. Honestly, theres nothing special taste.

Must visit place in Lucknow!✨The basket chat was awesome contains dahi wada with aloo tikki and lots of sweetened dahi topped with exotic spices.The garnishing was superb, quality of food was good, ambience was good, however there is no private sitting arrangements here but you can sit outside the shop, there is a space out there. The behaviour of the manager were good, buy can be improved πŸ˜… I couldnt meet hardayal maurya, but enjoyed the chat. Will recommend basket chat here!βœ¨βœ¨πŸ˜‹

Been here many times and I literally love this place for basket chaat. With the basket chat they also give digestive paste which is also yumm.If u like chaat do try palak patta chaat too it is yum and the quality is also too much for a single person. It is located very near to metro station hazratganj.Tried gol gappe also but didn’t like it.

DO NOT GO THERE. DO NOT EAT THERE. DO NOT ORDER FROM THERE.This place used to be must visit place on almost every lucknow visit. But my last experience was terrifying, horrifying. I ordered red sauce pasta from Royal Cafe (NOT ROYAL ANYMORE) and I found some hair in pasta. By the time I found this in a spoon, we (me and my family) ate almost all of the pasta. The very next day (within 10 hrs to be precise) we were going through vomiting, severe stomach ache and frequent visits to the washroom.Pathetic food quality.

It was good. I tried basket chat which was way too sweet for my liking. I like spicy food and everything was too sweet. Yogurt was sweet and sweet chutney was loaded. It made it overall very sweet. I wish they asked about my preference before making it if i like sweet our spicy. They should give that option.

Review β„–23

They are famous for their Katori chaat, bit overly priced with Rs. 230/- per plate. Its of good taste like authentic Delhi Chat, all fried ingredients made up of ghee. Single plate is too much for a single person to finish but easily can be good for two person. Highly recommended.

The food is delicious, and for all the ΰ€šΰ€Ÿΰ₯‹ΰ€°ΰ€Ύs out there, this place is a must try. Of course, nothing beats the taste of street food, but if you want a place where you have all of Lucknows special street foods, and you are okay with the high-ish prices (when compared to street food), then you will love the place. Also dont forget to have the Basket Chat, which is a unique speciality to the shop!

I had lunch yesterday. The food was very good but one thing that I noticed was that they were not providing drinking water. On all the tables, water bottles costing Rs 62 were there. I lodged a verbal complaint with the manager that this is not fair. Atleast the restaurant should provide potable water and if the customer insists then only mineral water be given and they may be told that it is chargeable.Not appreciated.

Review β„–31

I tried their famous Basket Chat and the presentation was horrible see for yourself. The waiters were rude and fickle minded and didnt pay attention. We were four people and ordered drinks, 1 sprite and 3 cokes. He got us 1 coke and 3 sprites and when we said to change he refused and then keep asking other waiters and staff about it then changed it. The guy who served us kebabs accidently hit the glass with his hand and the glass almost toppled down. And instead of saying sorry he was showing eyes as if we did something wrong. I had Zomato pro so that I could get 20% off. The manager was okay with it but some waiter insisted on card payment again and again. I said okay but I want 20% off on card. Then he went away. We gave our feedback to the manager and he was sorry for them. Ask your staff to be humble and treat the customers kindly. Also the washroom wasnt clean. You can have all the good food but service should be good.

I had seen about this place on YouTube.Trust me it was worth visiting the place if youre fan of Chaats! I did try the palak chat and at the cost they are providing it is a good deal!!Also the Kanjivada was filled with the topping of Hing! A must try if you are having a heavy dish, will definitely ease your acidity.Though there most famous dish is yet to be tried, hopefully next time indeed!But a delicacy for sure for your evening appetite.

Review β„–45

I went to this place to have the famous basket chaat but it was not upto my expectations. The basket chaat was overpriced and not tasty. You can find better basket chaat at any other places upto Rs. 100. Try in alambagh Rohit chaat, raj luxmi & gajanan. You wont feel cheated there. At Royal cafe after waiting for my turn to get chaat which was tasteless the waiter demanded tip of not less than 50 over and above rs 263 which is the price of basket chaat here.

One of the most famous chaat corner in Lucknow. Famous for its Basket chaat, aloo chaat, dahi bhale, pani Puri, Hot Gulab jamun, gajar ka halwa, varieties of Kulfi and other sweets and savoury items. Always overcrowded so might get little late in serving, Lil overpriced too but these chaats should definitely be tried

Good place to enjoy evening with friends as you get very spicy and chatpata food to fill your tummy. Located in the side of main road near Hazratganj metro station.

I have a good experience having dinner in this restaurant. But, I have one suggestion for the waitress, please be more polite. Please see and imitate the politeness of the security guard standing in front of the door of the restaurant.

Royal Cafe is famous for its Basket chaat. Basket Chaat is equivalent to dinner. It was heavy with combination of different chats assorted in a Basket. The owner of Royal Cafe was jovial, down to earth and was continuously clicking photos with customers. Basket Chaat is priced at Rs.200 per plate.

Really bad food, kadhai paneer me tamatar hi tamatar bhar rkhe hai. The staff was very rude to us.The service was delayed, though for no fault of the waiters who had to cater to an overloaded restaurant. However, despite pointing out the lacunae in the service and the quality of the food, the response was along the lines of Thats the way its made here in Royal Cafe. Just an acknowledgement that they may have messed up wouldve been enough, but galti maan ni hi nahi hai apni inko πŸ™„.

Nice place for snacks. Basketchaat is its famous dish. If u visit this place must try it out. It is situated on a prime location as metro station is very close to it. The only Drawback is the open air is not having any sitting arrangements, if senior people r with u they will have problem.

Located in Heart of Hazrat Ganj, the posh shopping area, this is one of the very few eateries in the vicinity that offers sumptuous delicacies.Most famous of then is the Basket Chat , which although costs Rs. 200, is worth your time and money. The quantity is more than enough for a single person and can be easily shared by two for a snack.Aloo Tikki chat is also quite good.
