High prices, very average Taste. It not worth the money. Avoid if possible and opt for nearby bakeries which serve better. Comparatively Next door ice-cream shop is much better.
Really bad experience, they don’t even give any receipts and would still charge you gst. The owners are the worst especially the lady in the front. The food is just foul tasting and really expensive. Totally not worth it. Would not try again even is someone paid me to.
Pathetic is the word. Overhyped, overpriced, rude staff (specially the lady at the counter), dont give bill receipts to customers.
The bakery was overpriced and the staff was not interested in serving their customer base well. I would not recommend this bakery to anyone. This is the first family owned business in my experience that doesn’t care at all
I can’t even begin to tell you how overpriced this is for the stuff they serve. I wont even call it a bakery.Speaking of taste, it’s absolutely the one of the worst bakery out there. The staff is so rude as if they are being forced to work there.
This bakery is literally the worst in terms of taste and pricing. I saw one guy asking for receipt and they denied it. This is absolutely terrible
I have never been to any pretentious bakery in my life such as this, the staff is dull and uninterested in serving you, they dont provide you a receipt and charge you more than they advertise. Outright rude
V bought 4 portions of Rum cake today 11th Sep 2021and it costed us for Rs 850/- .And it tasted terrible,horrible as many words I could say r not enough.. Home made cakes r much yummier than this one.. The sugar pieces were in whole particals and were coming in our mouth while chewing it ... Most importantly no Rum flavor at all... Ohh!!God.. Fooling and looting people..Snapshot and bills r proof.. Horrible..Fooling tourist... I hope after you read this review...kindly make an effort or take baking classes... Mercy . . This goes into ur bad karma . ..
The food was overpriced and not good at all. I saw a customer asking for receipt and the old man who was the owner started acting rude and didnt provide a receipt
They dont provide you a receipt and overcharge you. Also the food is hyped
Aunty gave me a Chocolate worth ₹20 instead of change. When I requested she simply shrugged her shoulders. Overrated cakes as well 😝
Terrible food quality yet extremely overpriced.
Extremely rude people. Customer service and hospitality means nothing to them. I didnt even wait to taste the food. And now, reading the reviews, it seems like this is a regular thing for them. Im generally a very nice person to even the meanest people, but the person here was just disrespectful. Wouldnt hurt them to be kind to people.
Extremely poor service and highly overpriced rates. Poor customer service. Lack of hospitality. Rude behaviour of staff. Avoid at all costs.
Pathetic place ,never go there . They dont know how to deal with customer . Such a rude behaviour .I ordered coffee ,they gave hot chocolate and when I asked they that drink it , we make it like this only . Whatever it is its good.They dont know how to deal with customer.
I dont understand what the fuss is about. The service here is pathetic. The owners are too rude. They didnt allow us to sit inside the bakery because they thought we werent ordering enough. We still didnt judge and decided to order, but the male owner was so rude to us even when we were placing the order, we decided to leave the place immediately without even ordering. I did not taste the food there, but the customer service is awful and you should consider going here only if you want to spoil the rest of your day!
Owner is very Rude. Dont know how to deal with customers. Arrogant.Coffe taste is also very bad. If you are charging customer then you should know how to talk to them.
I dont want to rate this pathetic Bakery shop, as I need to give some star to post my feedback ,so I given them 1 star with no heart.first of all the lady sitting at front for selling these bloody fancy items is so cruel ,rude & arrogant, coz my one yr baby just touched card of pastry name & throw it on floor ,she was yelling like anything & was very negative to a kid so what do you expect for a adult & 2nd price is definitely not pocket friendly, there is no menu card at shop ,super bakwas cake.waste of money ,plz dont go
Rude and arrogant attitude of the people who seemed like owners of the cafe.
Pathetic place ,such a rude behaviour . I ordered coffee and they gave me hot chocolate . I asked them its a hot chocolate not a coffee ,they said we make it like this only . Totally waste of money . Never go this place .
Waste of money and time. Shimla really needs good bakery.
Worst behaviour!
I have read many negative views about the Embassy restaurant from many food reviewers, locals and tourists but we visited a couple of times and found nothing similar to what we were told, and yes, we went back more than once. Maybe we are more tolerant towards the eccentric old man who is an owner of this place, or maybe we dont have high expectations, either way, yes, the owner is a little out there but is quite charming if you engaged him in conversation about the area and about the writing he has done (quotes, book extracts, etc., all over every bit of wall space). We had some lovely cake. All in all, it was not the terrible experience everyone else seems to have had. And Oh! The view, specially of Jhaku temple and of the church is brilliant! It is a very good cafe with two owners with smiling faces. Hot Chocolate pastry and a slice of hot fruit-palm cake are recommended to everyone. They didnt force us to buy anything. The couple made suggestions and we chose what we wanted to buy.
Dollars Rates,Cold hosts,Wont get plates have to eat in pan,wont get bill.And rates depend on their mood.They havent improved even after 1996.....But not giving bills should be viewed seriously
The food quality and serving size makes them highly overpriced. The rates match that of cafes and bakers in New Delhi, but nowhere do they provide the service worth it.The owner when asked for a fork for the apple almond cake slice suggested us to instead eat it with hands, like a pizza, be said.Then came the coffee, which was okay.Then coming to the breakfast, cheese omelette with cheese bread for my friend and tomato cheese sandwich for me. These two were jokes! They used commercial standard ordinary bun and used that for bread. I mean who was he kidding. The omelette had just a single piece of bun to finish it off with. Very poor for the 250 bucks they charged for it.The sandwich had cheese as its major and only performer. Not worth 250 bucks, given the lack of good quality bread and substandard filling. Also, nothing to accompany it with, no sauces or napkins provided with it.When asked for napkins, the owner counted two cheap quality paper napkins and gave one of us each. Joke!Now comes the attitude of the owner. Probably he thinks people are being served for free, because he keeps you waiting for the bill. Then after a wait of 15 minutes, in which he just ignored your request twice, and carried on with his work, he just tells you how much you have to pay. And when asked for the bill, he said that would amount to more charges. Then we asked him to just write roughly what the charges were, which he again didnt do, he orally gave a rough calculation of it.So, 900 bucks for a cheap roadside quality omlette and sandwich, and an average slice of apple almond cake slice, and average coffee, along with poor customer service. Definitely not worth it!
Lady owner is rude and arrogant. Forced us biryani worth 350 bucks and said it would be sufficient for 2 people. However it was in a box of a pie and could hardly feed a child, which was probably left over from the utensils. Pathetic service and very rude customer service.
This is one of the oldest restaurants in Simla, most of the crowds tasted their first Burger, Pizza etc at this place. They bank on the vintage even today, however they must learn and compete against the present competition. If in Simla, its a good restaurant to eat even today.
I generally don’t rate places on google. Specially when it is a negative experience, but this place has set a new level of disappointment.Super costly food with no quality whatsoever and a very rude family running it.Had a terrible experience!
Extremely expensive and extremely small portions.Nothing great taste or presentation or ambiance.Best to avoid.
Extremely rude owners! Especially the lady. No wonder why this place is empty. Never visit this place, they spoil your mood completely!
Rude and arrogant. Will force food items to you. Theres no menu, and no invoicing system. So stay prepared to pay based on your face value. Best to avoid and go to Honey Hut on the same street
Embassy Bakery offers a great variety of items.It is super costly and taste is not so great as compared to the prices.So, think before you choose to visit.
Drinks was okay, but the prices were touching sky. No menu list available in the restaurant. The bill was shocking, we paid 800 Rupees for lemon soda and 4 small pieces cake....
The prices were too high. My experience at this place was not good. We ordered two cold coffee for which we had to pay 440 rs. & It is worthless to give so much money just for a cold coffee. Shimla have far better restaurants which offer a tasty cold coffee with ice cream and choco sauce just for rs. 110 .
So it’s “unchi dukan fika pakwan “ . When I entered the place I thought it to be peaceful but when I ordered the meal I was shocked . The size of the burger was very small also there was no stuffing except for a thin layer of chicken dripping with oil. After having that meal I felt nauseous for hours .The place is overpriced and also the staff has no idea about hospitality. I didn’t want to rate it with even a single star but since the review needs it to be posted so here I go .
Extremely poor service. The prices are too high and the quantity of food provided is low. Owners are very nice to deal with.
Loved the theme of this restaurant.. good service but high prices
The review from Manju Garia is correct. The owner seems lost somewhere and he offered us to try exotic cakes which was good but restaurant doesnt have any menu and made an unexpected bill.
Awesome cakes n ice creams. Homemade goodness n high on flavor.
Terrible. Extremely mediocre food for the high prices charged. To top it all, the owner (am guessing) literally drove us out of the store for being a little indecisive considering there was a lot on offer. Another thing, do not let the old man dictate his choices. He will sneak in his recommendations in your order without bothering to inform you of the (skyhigh) prices and then you will end up paying something like INR 100 for a small glass of milk for a cookie that did not deserve the high price tag. Extremely disappointing and unsatisfying.
Theme of cafe is good ...Price are little bit higher.Service is good.
Great ice creams which have better texture and flavour than any big brands available
A must visit place if your going to shimla....a small cafe that caters with all heart and spirityou havent actually visited untill you have sat inside and enjoyed the ambience....
I do not agree with other reviews..its a good cafe and offers wide variety with nice preparation .Prices are moderate.
Crap, serving old food, owner doesnt know how to cook a corn, 160 for a slice of cake, awlays empty coz of owners attitude thats why food is stale and old
Just a sheer delight to eat here....excellent
Offers one of the best icecream you will ever have.
One of the Best Ice creams and Green Tea in town.
Food as old as owners age, taste as his attitude which is frustrating, sitting empty serving crap, prices of a 5star,avoid dont go
Poor quality. Owners too proudy and unworthy. Dont visit at all
Really bad places...prices aree too high...i had to pay 630 for brownie with ice cream...which was worth rs100 ...i had a really bad experience so a warning for anyone going there..BAD PLACE!! Do not visit
A waste of money and youll come out with a spoiled mood.
Pathetic coffee pathetic soup pathetic service dont ever try to go here
Pathetic customer service and owners. Super rude.
Owner is an a__, frustrated son of a bit__, always empty, serving junk, thinking of himself michelin star chef
I loved the Banana Cake
Worst place with an arrogant owner which is the reason this place is empty ...dont ever go to this place
Worst ! Very bad experience.
Chizen said that he has lost his ownership and lost his hat, he has some other things that he has done so far. It is very expensive for the menu, but it has not been up to the mark, and I do not know what the bill is going to be and I am shocked.
