Bandra in Mumbai is home to some of the most aesthetic and appealing cafes. These cafes don't just serve delectable meals but also make customers feel at home. Adding to the many is one more cafe that has newly opened in the city's popular destination.
The Nest in Bandra recently opened space in the city's cosmopolitan hotspot. It distinguishes itself with a warm, fuzzy ambience paired with curated coffees and cultivated comfort food. A cosy reading nook to a faux fireplace emulates the sense of being in one's confine and your appetite being well taken care of by the staff at the cafe.
Helmed by the vision of Khushal and Priyanka Kotak, The Nest seeks to offer an immersive cafe culture. "We believe in the saying "Athithi Devo Bhava" and want to make sure anyone who steps in our restaurant feels that way by giving them a great culinary experience and a warm ambience. The Nest is whatever you want it to be'; a place to work, to bring your loved one out on a date or your daily hangout place," they say.
This thought is reflected in the subtle-toned interiors. Bamboo work, jute mats, jute rope chairs and earthy tones of beige, and off-white green complete the space. Small plantlets in the cafe create a natural aesthetic that resonates with a feeling of calm and shadowy comfort in one's peaceful corner at home. There is a small library with books from different genres, so you can pick up a good read if you are alone. For a group of friends, there is a collection of board games to play and reminisce about the good old days.
