Best Cafes in Coimbatore to visit with your Flatmates

Listen, we need to talk about the best cafes in Coimbatore. Because people don’t talk about it enough. Now, people have a lot to say about the city’s IT industry, its serene temples or its close proximity to Ooty (you knew that was coming, didn’t you?), but the cafes in Coimbatore and the cafe culture, in general, doesn’t get its fair share of attention. Despite the fact that it’s a paradise for foodies.

Now, whether you’re a student or a working professional, dining out is important. And especially when you are living away from home. Talking about living away from home, you might not find the taste of your mother’s sambar anywhere but we, at our Stanza Living residences, make sure you are always served fresh homely meals to keep you healthy and satiated. We kind of make you miss home a little less. Now coming back to dining out, we have compiled a list of the best cafes in Coimbatore for couples and singles alike. It’s a good place to start your exploration of the city. Or as we like to call it – your Coimba(tour)!
