Tea is good. When you order tea / coffee they will give a small bun as a complimentary.
Service - Self Service. Best place to have some good time and snacks in the morning or evening time.

Ordered one bread omlet and tea. Bread omlet is plain, no Mayo no green chutney, egg shells on bread omlet.Tables are dirty.. I'm used to be a regular customer, now i should rethink about visiting ur place again. When they started this they are good. Now they can pls close this and leave.

Very slow service. We stood in the counter to order but they didn't allow us to order and took order only from hindi people. That was too rude.
Since we couldn't order, we left to another shop without ordering anything. Not at all friendly. Vadakkans.

Food was Raw. Big chunks. Chef isn't well trained. Drinks were just sprite and not as mentioned on menu. Worst place experience

Stopped by here to get some quick snacks and they had got Veg Puff, Chill Cheese Puff and Banana Cake. Cost of each of them was 30 and taste was also good.

Must try - Chilli Cheese Puff.

Reason for 4 stars is the ambience inside the store. Although from outside it looks very cozy, inside it’s pretty ordinary and in fact looks old!

A delightful tea & bun shop! Cozy ambiance, scrumptious buns, and a standout hibiscus tea – refreshing & tangy. A must-visit for a heartwarming experience! ☕🥐🌺

Please have a look at my 450 bucks worth loaded burrito bowl, the “salsa” was a weird mix of ketchups and sauces, the beans was dry sundal, ‘mixed veggies’ were huge chunks of capsicum, ‘cilantro rice’ had no cilantro, ‘sour cream’ was split, and guac was missing.. Add to it the packaging for such an expensive item. Very disappointing.

Service needs to be improved. There was only one man struggling to get all our orders.

We were asked to wait for 5-10 for our order of sandwich, ice tea , custard bun and baked samosa. Even after waiting for 20 mins we were not even given the off the shelf items like samosa and custard bun. We cancelled the entire order and had to leave without any food even after waiting.

Wanted to check out this place based on their IG profile, nothing close to what they claim.
Absolutely pathetic service.
None of their waiters are trained, they hardly know anything about their own menu, worst off- they couldn’t note down what we ordered.
The waiter asked me 4 times to repeat what I wanted to order and later again after 15 mins ended up again me about the same order. Wanted to walk out at that point.
Unhygienic seating.
Poor quality food, had stomach issues- should be the cheddar and cheese shrooms which wasn’t in good shape- tasted awful.
Even after 40 mins, we didn’t have our food so we had to cancel one of the dishes.
Would never recommend this place! Such a terrible experience.

Taste of tea to be improved. Staffs to be trained properly on sugar levels. Just for a ambience it's worth not the tea

We dined at Mearth for dinner. The interiors are warm and cozy, with an intimate seating area.
We ordered 3 mains, 2 starters and 4 drinks.
The sweet potato fries were very good, fresh and crispy.
The lotus stem was also very good, but was on the spicier side.
The burrito was great, fresh veggies and fragrant rice, but the dipping salsa tasted a bit like the store bought kind.
The burger was smaller than anticipated but was good overall.
We also got the tofu fajita bowl which was the winner of the show!
The service at the restaurant was very slow, multiple times we had to ask if our dishes were on the way and it took almost 30-40 mins for our main course to come, but the owner personally apologised for the inconvenience caused and said that they were short staffed.
Overall 4/5 stars for me, great food and worth a second visit!

Decent tea and snack shop and very correctly priced. Instead of taking roadside junk food and snacks, here is a decent and well kept affordable place. Self service. Small place but good good. Buy a tea and get a bun free.

A small outlet with great ambience. Totally loved the chicken keema samosa, bun butter jam, biscuits, and irani chai.

An incredibly cozy, quiet and humble cafe for heart to heart uninterrupted conversations over great well priced food.

Came in here on a Saturday morning at 12pm for brunch, to meet up and spend time with a good old friend. Getting here by car you'll find parking a bit of an issue. Suggest getting dropped off or taking a cab to avoid parking related hassles.

The cafe in itself is naturally well lit with a nice view, it is pet friendly (but you may have to deal with noisy pets). It also also vegan friendly though you'll need to be very specific if you wish to have vegan food.

Overall the service was pleasant, menu was nice (we ended up with more of a snack!), washroom is well maintained, and you can have a long nice uninterrupted conversation.

Kara bun tastes good.

Badam milk is bit costly.

Baked samosa is an experimental try, but I dinot like.

Once we entered the cafe, we were forgotten by the staff. After 10 mins, they came for taking order. At that time, we told to bring 3 more glasses to have water as there were only 2 glasses in a 5 seater table. Again the staff forgot about it and never gave the glasses. We ourselves took it from the nearby table to satisfy our thirst.

It takes almost 50 mins to prepare and give the food. Not suitable for normal eat out. It will take 1.5 to 2 hours in total for lunch from ordering to bill.

We ordered Mushroom stragonoff which was supposed to come with broccoli but it didn’t. We asked the staff and we were told Broccoli’s out of stock. We felt that this restaurant is probably running on loss and trying to manage as much as they could before shutting down.

Food taste is also average. Please note there is cockroach in the pizza. See the video attached.

Therefore Not worth it and not recommended given the poor service and excessive pricing.

This is the 6th Branch of Teabon chain of shops in Chennai at Ekkatuthangal, 100 feet road, opened 5 months back.
The ambience is excellent and hiegne is good.
A tea with a bon, the old custom is again brought back here.
All Teabon shop's the quality and taste is awesome.
They serve Puffs, Muffins, Brownie, cold Coffee, Noodles, Samosa, Sandwich and shakes etc..
Tea+Bon = (Happiness) 2 is their Slogan.

Confusing experience. Because of bad waiters who do not know what Vegan is.

Taste is good for what you order but we had clearly told hubby is Vegan. In dessert, we had caramel cold coffee with coconut milk and was so good we totally had 4 glasses of it. Turns out they added ice cream and we are shocked as to how they could not even suggest to a vegan customer that ice cream is present.

And just like that adding Vegan upgrade to items like BBQ burgers/kimchi fried rice where there is no dairy product as such.

Horrible experience in making them understand and getting the bill revised. Products are too highly priced and not worth the service.

Been there twice in the last couple of months. The menu is very vast yet confusing that many dishes are great many are a miss. I would definitely recommend to try what they suggest than order something off their menu.

Their brownie is definitely something to try it was really good both the times.
