Cafe
👍 This coffee shop has it all. The ambiance, interior designs, good coffee and a variety of beverages and food you can select from. Prices are reasonable. They function 24/7. I would suggest to get it air conditioned because the fans weren’t sufficient.

👍👍 I went to Barista for the first time, and it was a chill place. They had lots of coffee options, but since I'm not into coffee much, I got a Nutella Shake, which was super sweet and I liked it. They had few seating arrangements, and I remember the parking outside could fit around 3 or 4 cars. You ca...
