Segafredo Perfect Coffee Shop

Segafredo Perfect Coffee Shop
For someone who loves coffee getting the joy of getting your order right without dying to explain what you want is unparalleled. Imagine if this were a regular feature; getting your coffee just the way you like, now that's a wonderful thought.

You step into that very world when you set foot into Segafredo Zanetti, the latest name in the coffee market of NCR. Just over a year old the maiden outlet of the global brand that sells over a 100,000 tones of coffee annually and is considered to be the largest producer of espresso coffee in the world.

Segafredo Zanetti's fantastic ambience and truly out of the world coffee makes you feel like Dorothy far removed from the dusty Kansas!

With over 6,000 international Espresso Cafes worldwide, Segafredo Zanetti's foray into the Indian market is more than welcome. The coffee tastes better as the beans are self-produced on Segafredo's plantation in Brazil and this is what separates them from the rest.

Ideally the thing to set the standards of any cafe is the Espresso and the espresso here just doesn't disappoint. The straight possess sweet aroma and has a musty chaser much like liquored chocolate.

This is a coffee that has to be enjoyed straight up but crowned with luscious froth, Segafredo's Cappuccino stands a close second to the espresso.

If coffee isn't your poison then try the Hot Ciok, a hot chocolate that these guys call the 'Rolls Royce of Hot Chocolates'! The cafe has a whole list of signature must try products like Segafredo Wild (Cold Coffee with ice cream, chocolate and fruit pulp) and the Mocha Cinnamon Shake.

The cafe extends the same high standards in the food as well. The very simple yet effective food menu consists of Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian sandwiches starting at Rs. 90 as well as short eats including puffs, cupcakes and brownies in addition to side orders.

The desserts section is one to be explored at leisure. Take your time as you indulge in the signature Cheesecake made out of Australian cheese and real blueberries. This cheesecake is a perfect accompaniment with the coffee.

The vivid interiors and the snazzy art work can fool many into believing that the cafe would be a little tough on the wallet. Oh how wrong can one be! This reviewer could have been a victim of this misconception had the coffee aficionado in him taken a leave of absence. With coffee starting at Rs. 59, the pricing is surely competitive with the existing players like Barista and Costa Coffee.

In fact a double shot espresso is cheaper in Segafredo as opposed to the other joints. The company is all set to open two more outlets in Select City Walk and Vasant Vihar and has plans to set up 40 more across the nation.

You will give time a break as you nibble on a lovely piece of dark chocolate that comes with the full bodied smooth and vicious small cup of espresso.

If you happen to love coffee, Segafredo Zanetti just might be the perfect coffee shop.
