Cafes in HSR Layout, Bangalore

South Indian tiffin places in HSR Layout

HSR does not have a Rameshwaram Cafe, but it has several busy self-service tiffin places that serve the same kind of breakfast: ghee-heavy dosas, soft idlis and filter coffee. None of the sources we used gave a cost for two, so we have left it out. Expect darshini prices.

Getting there, parking and best time

HSR Layout is laid out in seven numbered sectors with wide, numbered main and cross roads, so addresses are easy to find. It is close to Koramangala and Bellandur.

• Metro: the Yellow Line runs along Hosur Road on the western edge of HSR. Check a route app for the nearest station; most cafes still need a short auto ride.
• Best time: tiffin places are busiest from 8 to 10 AM on weekdays. Work cafes fill up by mid-morning; arrive early for a plug point.
• Parking: easier than in Koramangala on most residential streets, harder on 27th Main and 14th Main in the evening.
