Be it a quiet afternoon away from the bustling city or fun gathering with friends, serene cafes are becoming more popular than ever. Love, friendship and discussions boom with a cup of coffee, a platter of good food and not to forget instaworthy corners.
Welcome to Cafe Hygge, nestled in the heart of Patuli, Kolkata, a haven for those seeking solace away from the city’s cacophony. Founded by the development professional turned entrepreneurs, Anindita Patra and Bidyut Roy, the place serves a wide range of global delicacies catered with delightful ambience and love. A quintessential menu of a wide range of coffee, lattes, mocha and even Bengal’s favorite tea makes Hygge a go-to-place for beverage lovers. The unique name of the cafe ‘Hygge’, suggests its ambience. The danish word etymologically mean ‘a cozy place that makes a person feel content’ and the place genuinely justifies it’s name.
Ms. Patra mentioned in a recent online chat session, “Firstly I never wanted to be a business person and secondly I loved my job… it was just a sudden plan with my business partner and we went on opening a cafe” and indeed, it’s these unexpected plans that have led to the creation of something truly successful. She actually made us wonder, how impromptu plannings can be so exquisite! She shared, “I have always loved tea, but my father suggested that, liking tea and selling tea is different, so no matter how hard the situation gets, now I know that I wanted to do it and I’m ready to take all its accountability.” adding more conviction to her business worthy mindset.
Since its opening, Cafe Hygge has become a beloved destination for the youth of Kolkata, a place where friendships are formed over steaming cups of coffee and laughter fills the air. Ms. Patra’s journey may have been unexpected, but it’s evident in every detail of her establishment reflects her love and dedication.
