CT Review: I Visited Gram Street Coffee In Gurgaon For The Viral Purple Latte & It Didn’t Disappoint

As a coffee lover and someone who loves exploring new cafes, I couldn’t resist walking into Gram Street Coffee by Chef Vanshika Bhatia in Gurugram. After all, the lilac-coloured space with its Pinterest-worthy interiors was all over my feed. There, I not just ate some amazing snacks, but also tried the coffee lattes they are known for. Scroll down to know all about my experience at this super cute cafe. 

Gram Street Coffee & Its Lilac-Coloured Interior 

Almost every day, a new coffee shop pops up in Delhi-NCR, and yes, not every cafe lives up to the hype. But it seems like Gram Street Coffee, with its lilac interiors, has won the hearts of coffee lovers and foodies alike. Honestly, it is a cute cafe with Pinterest-worthy interiors that will make you take out your phone and click hundreds of photos.

But for coffee lovers like me, good coffee matters more than aesthetics, and for that, Gram Street Coffee wins extra brownie points. The place is not just appealing to the eyes, but also serves creamy lattes, great food, and desserts. When I stepped inside, the cafe was already bustling with groups of friends chatting away with lattes in their hands, while some couples were busy placing orders for gelatos at the counter.

The Place Serves Some Amazing Lattes 

More than the food, I was excited to try their coffee lattes, which are getting all the hype on social media. I ordered their bestselling Gram Street Latte, which is their most loved menu item for a reason. It’s purple-coloured and has blueberry purée in it. The sweetness of the blueberry paired really well with the coffee, and honestly, it tasted good, which was quite unexpected. And yes, the colour of this latte matched the walls of the cafe, which is probably the reason why people frequently order it.

I also ordered their signature Croissant Gelato Latte, which is something I haven’t seen anywhere else. The latte had a small piece of croissant in it and tasted like pure comfort in a glass. If you like pairing buttery croissants with coffee, then you have to try this drink. I expected this latte to be very sweet, but Thank God, it was perfectly balanced!

The Food That Felt Comforting 

Next came the food. First, I ordered their Sausage Party, their bestselling snack that comes with chicken sausage, jalapeño, and cream cheese filling inside a croissant. This snack, with its rich and satisfying taste, paired really well with my latte. People who do not enjoy spicy food would honestly love eating.

Next, I tried their K-Drama, which is a chef’s special. It was basically a mushroom puff loaded with Korean gochujang. Being a non-vegetarian, I found myself leaning towards this snack more than non-vegetarian ones. It was spicy, sweet, and flaky, just like a puff should be. Devouring it definitely sparked nostalgic memories of me having mushroom and aloo patties outside college.

Desserts That Are Too Pretty To Ignore 

I then went for a gelato tasting, churned fresh every day for diners. Some of the flavours I tasted were banana, chocolate hazelnut, mango, and pistachio. But instead of ordering a gelato, I ended up trying their Blueberry Cream Cheese Brioche. Because honestly, no sane person can look at that and not order it.

This Pinteresty dessert was pillowy soft with a smooth and tangy cream cheese filling and bursts of blueberry jam. I would suggest anyone visiting Gram Street Coffee in Gurgaon pair this dessert with their hot cappuccino. The combination would taste absolutely amazing.

In between conversations, I also asked Chef Vanshika Bhatia why she chose lilac for the cafe walls. She simply answered that it was her favourite colour and she wanted a pop of colour in a space she had worked hard to build. Notably, Chef Vanshika is trained at Le Cordon Bleu and is also the founder of Petite Pie Shop.
