Best Coffee Shops in Bengaluru: A Specialty Coffee Guide

If you're looking for coffee in Bengaluru (Bangalore), I'd start with whichever neighbourhood you're already in. In Jayanagar you can try a few different ways of brewing coffee. In Indiranagar, I'd decide whether I wanted a pour-over or a filter coffee first.

Where to start

I've picked a few places to help you decide where to go and what to order. This isn't a ranking.

  • Compare brewers in Jayanagar

    Benki: Benki lists pour-over, AeroPress and Clever Dripper.

  • Pour-over in Indiranagar

    Araku: ARAKU lists V60 and AeroPress using its own roasted coffee.

  • Filter coffee or estate beans

    Ainmane: Ainmane's Indiranagar branch lists filter coffee, iced pour-over and retail beans.
