CTBL used to be a favorite of mine but was never happywith the outlet in 1 MG mall till today. Had the best quinoa poha and ice blended hazelnut latter ever!!!!
Looks like the new location has given them their mojo back:))
Tastes good. We had mocha with vanilla flavour and a hot chocolate whcih tastes really yummy. And the service is good here. We have a good seating area around inside the mall.
We ordered Chocolate pie and choco fudge. They are delicious, mainly chocolate pie. With zomato gold it’s worth the money. Drinks are okayish.
Loved their baked cheesecake and the ham and cheese croissantwich! Their cheesecake was one of the best that we've eaten in Bangalore so far as was the sandwich.
The coffee over here is pretty good! Also, go for their sandwiches and especially pasta as you won't get disappointed. Sandwiches have healthy filling and pasta (I took Alfredo) is creamy. Also try their tiramisu, it's yummy! Overall, it's a nice place to relax.

Fantastic stop to rest post a bunch of shopping in 1MG or just a great place to work out of during the day.
Ambience: (4/5)
Typical coffee shop ambience with tables and benches, couches. The images on the wall and the green colour are a nice touch. The space is a little dark, but lit well enough to work. The counter to place the order is right next to the entrance. There is also seating outside which is nice. it also come loaded with multiple plug points all over the wall which allows for a great place to work out of.
Food: (4/5)
I really like the coffees and teas here. The Genmicha green tea is brilliant as is the wild berry black team. This time I tried the peach ice tea and to my surprise it was one of the most non-synthetic flavoured iced teas I have had. There is a lot of ice that needs to be removed, but a refreshing drink post that. The mocha coffee was great, had the nice strong dark chocolate flavour. The hot chococlate was nice and the regular cappuccino was also top notch. Overall great experience with all the beverages here.
Summary: (4/5)
Great place To rest or work out of. The beverages are top notch and the food is good. Highly recommend this place in the trinity circle junction area.
The place is ok and quite expensive. Food is average but drinks are well prepared. But a good place to hang out in the mall when you want to take a quick bite or relax.
Hello. This is our regular adda, once a week visit since most of our meetings happen in and around MG Road.
I like the coffee here as the staff is known to us and they customise the order for us.
The sandwiches are pretty ok, quick lunch bite.
Incase we need to catch up for a meeting for official or personal reasons, this is a good place to catch up...they don’t hurry you to leave the place.
Pics will be uploaded the next time I visit this place...cheers
The Chicago cheesecake is one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had. Love the coffee as well. Sandwiches are tasty and filling. The service is good too. One of my favourite places.
I had an awesome time in here. We had ordered an Iced Hazelnut Latte along with a Blended Hazelnut Latte on the drinks side. The taste of Hazelnut was just perfect. As for food, we ordered Grilled Chicken Sandwich and Cheese with Hara Chicken Tikka Sandwich. The food was just awesome. If you are looking for an ambience to spend time, that also is pretty good in here.
I like the place. I like the items on the menu. The brekky items are nice and the coffee is definitely good. I like the omelette and sausages. I like the desserts there too. The place is a little dim for my liking and gets very crowded. Nevertheless the decor is very nicely done. I liked the setting more when it was located near the stairs. But still one of my fav to visit for a quick bite and good coffee. Try it if you haven’t
Quite an expensive place for a coffee house. Nothing less than Rs. 100/- inclusive of tax. Self Service counters only. Great ambience. Fast service.
A small and cozy outlet located at the 1st floor of 1 MG Road Mall. Its a good place to sit and relax over a cup coffee and finger food. Nice ambience! Had sausages & mushroom omelette and choco fudge cake! I loved whatever food i had here! Overall, a great place!
Small yet nice coffee shop situated on the first floor of the mall. Have tried double chocolate latte, which was completely delectable.
Cozy environment, its a good place to hang around with your friends, family or special someone. :)
Good coffee and fun place to sit and chat. Hund out here at the tail end of a shopping day and was perfect for unwinding with a double americano!
Chocolate almond croissant and double espresso. Needed that to survive an all nighter. Seating is comfortable for days when you need to relax after the shopping at 1 MG mall
It is my quiet place. It’s in hustling bustling 1 MG mall one of my favourites which has right selection of stores and this coffee shop fits rightly in first floor. It’s quiet and happening. I love coffee and omlette my regular here and I hope they keep this quality up! Ambience is cosy .. I have a couple sitting next to me making promises over coffee and two ladies discussing relatives and life behind and two business partners discussing business proposition ... all in one place and then there’s me zomating away a review!!
A decent place with good finger food & beverage option . Though the quality is good,quantity is less.loved the double chocolate shake & French fries
Not sure why this place is so underrated, may be due to their seating arrangement - as their couches had tattered seat covers :P. Moving on to more important things, the beverages served were extremely good in both, taste quality and portion (quantity). Do drop by and check this out if you are fed up with the Starbucks and other chain cafes.
Great coffees with good food options. Whenever I have a craving for frappes or an iced coffee the coffee bean comes to rescue. :)
Lovely staffs.
When you walk for about 7 km around Ulsoor lake on a rainy Saturday afternoon and exhaustion takes the better off you, nothing can be more rejuvenating than unwinding your body on so comfortable chair over a piping hot cup of tea! This was exactly what it felt like sitting at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf after we traversed through MG Road, around Ulsoor Lake and back where be began. A hot cup of tea was all Arun and I needed. While I settled for Swedish berries (for African Sunrise wasn't available), Arun zeroed in on Moroccon Mint. Tangy but mild, fruity but subtle was the Swedish berries and I could sense every knot in my body lossening up! We also ordered Almond cake which was alright.
The food is not your regular must-eat but becomes so when all you are looking for is to unwind yourself. I think this is one place where I'll step in quite often now for it's quiet, just the place where you can happily read a book or sit by and leisurely drink tea upon tea!
One of the most crowded stores in One MG mall, this place serves good coffee and snacks... Like their iced vanilla mocha... The snacks are also good...
Classy seating arrangement, spacious, comfortable and an awsome hi tea menu. Perfect place to hangout over a coffee with friends or a business meet. Their deli options are also very good. It's a refreshing breather for people from going to regular coffee bistros. Highly recommended...
The Coffee Bean & Tea... the cafe that looks nice and the service also nice we cant spent a little hangouts with our friends.......nice place to visit the taste of the deserts are good
Best pasta place....it's just perfect....yummmmm....everything that I ate there was good but their arabiatttta was so good I can't rate them any less
Visited the 1mg mall outlet quite many times..would rate 3.5 for food..brownies are little dissapointing..i ordered for a choco chip muffin and a warm chocolate pie..they look yummy but were not so great..i complained the same to the staff as well and they said they will look into it and they never came back... hazelnut latte tastes average..u can hardly find hazelnut flavour in the coffee..sandwiches pasta are great..
oooohhh yum yum yum.. visited this place many times at One MG Mall and just in love with it. Pasta is sooo delicious and the flavored ice teas are so gooood...
We are regular visitors of cbt specially at the airport..this one at one mg road is no different...blue berry cheese cake...ariabata pasta..lasagnia...chocolate mousse in a waffle and double chocolate mocha...everything was good
Met up some of my book club buddies here. Located in No 1 MG Mall we were sitting outside right near the railing. It has a good feel but what we were looking for was a nice place to chit chat so it was fine. The service was good. We ordered a variety of food and I had mixed reactions to them. The one I ordered called blooming pizza was extremely interesting and very tasty with lots of cheese. The cheese garlic bread was ok, the chicken salami was standard. I would prefer buying it and making it at home though. The chicken wrap was average but the chilly cheese baguette was lovely. Do you notice my leaning towards cheesy stuff?? Cant help it !!!Enjoy the visuals

This place is decent, located inside 1 MG Road Mall. The hot chocolate is nice and the Cold coffee and stuff is okayish. They need to improve on the service though.
I visited this place yesterday afternoon with my wife. We ordered for Cheese Garlic Bread which was good and the Ultimate Mocha which as heavenly to say the least. Service was excellent.
Great place to sit back and relax over a hot cuppa. Not too crowded,friendly staff. Have a tv in place.
Nice coffee!
One place that I frequently visit.
What a lovely place... Great sandwiches and some lovely tea coffee.... Simple place in 1 MG road.. It's really worth the time spent..
In desert try the Mango love ton..
A great place to hang out in the evening and grab a bite. Love the ambiace here. The service here is really good and has nice cool enviroment. loved the tropical passion.
Enjoyed the atmoshphere in this place. A good way to start your day with a nice breakfast and some hot chocolet. Awsome place to hang out in the evenings also. has a calm and soothing feel to it.

I have visited this place a couple of times. Tucked into a corner of the first floor, this outlet with its dim lighting offers the ideal setting for some undisturbed conversation. It is usually full as there are very few coffee shops on this end of MG Road. Had a tall glass of chocolate which was a perfect blend. The chicken lasagne was a bit salty. Service was pleasant.
It is a nice place to hang out with friends. Ambience is perfect! Liked the smoked chicken croissant and garlic bread cheese amongst the items we ordered. Beverages were fine. Had a good experience.
The Coffee here is the best :) I prefer this place to have long talks be it a week day or a weekend :) It is Located in the first floor of 1MG mall.. The staff s really polite n the service is really good .. Hazelnut Latte is really too good :) n the place is definitely pocket friendly too :) would definitely visit again :)

This is one of the only places in the mall that isn't a Fine Dining restaurant I think. Everything else at 1MG mall is so fancy.
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is a regular coffee shop with not-so-regular prices. Their prices are quite high when compared to other coffee shops. We didn't have a choice so we had to head here.
We ordered two ice-blended drinks. One was dark chocolate and the other was hazelnut I think.
The dark chocolate drink had a nice chocolatey flavour but didn't look like anything that was shown in their posters. At one point there was just tasteless ice left in the glass. I think the same went with the hazelnut ice blend.
We ordered Cheese Garlic Bread and that was the saviour of the day. The bread tasted fresh and was generously coated with semi-liquid cheese. The garlic bread topped with chilli flakes and oregano made a tasty dish.
I all of a sudden had a chocolate craving. They didn't sell chocolates so instead we got ourselves a chocolate brownie. The brownie was definitely the BEST part of the evening. A big square piece of well baked and moist cake loaded with delicious chocolate and stuffed pieces of walnut.
This place doesn't offer a great value for money. Go here for the desserts and small eats, only if you have to.
This outlet of Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is located on the second floor of 1MG mall. The ambience is good for a nice chat over coffee. We ordered mocha latte and grilled chicken and cheese sandwich. I really like the coffee here and the sandwich that we ordered was also good, but very spicy. It's not a pocket-friendly cafe but definitely value for money.
This is one of the best places for coffee in bangalore. I would especially like to comment on their Mocha and Vanilla coffee. They are thick, tastes great and leaves you refreshed. No extra sugar needed. They do not have much variety in their snacks and their pastry portions are really enormous (good for 2). The ambience is good and the outlet at 1 MG mall is good for formal meetings as well. The couches are not at all that comfortable and can leave you in a totally upright position when what one wants in a coffee bar is to slouch and sip on coffee.
We went at this place when we were so much tired and needed a coffee at a glance. So we had cafe late and Irish coffee and cheesecake. It was refreshing. Coffee was thick and are was bit hard but cheesy. Sitting was also comfortable. Though it was in mall so ambience was also contemporary. Bit costly but it's a big brand so have to compromise over pocket
Nice and cozy place where you can sit for hours and chit chat. The menu is a bit small bit stuff on it is fine. Cold coffee is nice with crushed ice. Darjeeling tea is served with tea bag in a nice and big cup.
Almond cake was tasty and fresh.
Service is with a smile!
Had a nice cup of Darjeeling tea and almond cake...it's a fine place. Service was pretty good compared with its counter part in gurgaon.
Not too many options but they had what I wanted.

A cafe hidden inside 1 MG Mall unearthed this weekend, when sheltered under its roof due to seemingly long showers which added to long and painful wait. To cut down this wait as well as hunger, we started exploring this mall and end up here. You may find this difficult to locate, so easy way.
Get into the mall-->Take immediate right-->Get towards the end and check for stairs at your left-->Get to the first floor and its waiting for you next right.
A lovely cafe with neatly done interior, spacious enough to breath added with good staffs carrying a nice smile all the time, what more you could have asked for.
Food served were fresh, be it pineapple muffins or almond cake alongwith with a cup of cappuccino( perfectly blend). The garlic bread was superb. A place where things needs to enjoyed, being laid back having a long conversation with friends and family.
They do have varaties in tea alongside breakfast stuffs which I feel could be tasted in my next round of visit. This time it must be a planned one for sure. So my current rating has a scope to roll both ways based on my future experiences?.
Will be Happy to keep posting!!!!!!

Have been to the Koramangala branch next to Spaghetti Kitchen but the outlet has now been replaced by Harry's Pub. Was here for a Sunday brunch. The place then had quaint cafe interiors. The food was good, the service prompt.
You should know the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf if you're a morning person. One of the few decent coffee shops that serve up fresh food early in the day!
Located at #1 MG mall, this place features woody, trendy contemporary interpretation of retro vintage decor elements. Cosy, low seating adds to its appeal. Service is a bit slow but the taste makes up for it.
The caramel macchiato was utterly delicious without making the mistake of being too sweet. The sandwiches are freshly made, delicious and enough to fill you up!
Small and big group friendly. If you're in this mall and want to rest your feet after a shopping spree then this cafe is the place to do that.
Had some time to kill, so stopped by The Coffee Bean... have always had a soft spot for the franchise after they plied me with hot coffee and gave me a nice, warm seat after I was soaked in rain but that's a story for another day.
This franchise maintains the same standard as several others... and in particular would like to recommend their Ham & Cheese Omelette. Perfectly done, with the cheese oozing from the omelette. Just the omelette!
Had to eat first and then take a photo... so that says a lot!
We tried this outlet of TCBTL other day after the hectic shopping day at 1 MG road mall. This one has far more superior ambience . Strategically located near the elevators , it is very tempting for shoppers to step in. With expanding menu - which includes variety of snacking options - this place is no longer just a coffee shop. We had muffins and cappuccino coffee and both were good . Coffee's aroma and smell was in the air - a good sign for a coffee lovers . Prices are bit higher as compare to CCD but better service and ambience compensate for that .
We had simply Cappuccino today. It was well prepared and the quantity was also good. I thought the coffee tasted pretty good. However, I thought the ambience is a let down. Its open place and since the mall AC was ineffective, we felt warm. The waiter did not inform us of Citi discount despite us paying by Citi card and when I checked, he politely declined saying I should have asked before bill was prepared.
Nice ambience for a long conversation
Moroccan mint tea and a slice of banana walnut cake. An afternoon well spent amidst people watching and idle chatter. A special mention for the banana walnut cake which was delectable and fresh. The tea was the regular tea bag stuff and while it went down well, it wasn't extraordinary. Staff is courteous and polite.
Going to this place was just by chance as was roaming in the 1MG Mall. The place is really lovely. One can sit at ease and sip on your coffee. I loved the Ultimate Mocha and the Almond cake. The Almond cake was just yum and loved the coffee as well. The place is really peaceful. Should open more branches in Bangalore and will definitely return.

The best coffee in the whole world is found here! I love this place, no matter how full I am I never miss to grab a coffee from here. Their Blueberry cheesecake is a must try.
Grab a bite here when you're at 1MG Mall and rest those tired feet! It used to have a dedicated outlet which made it more comfortable than the current seating arrangement. While it lacks a standard cafe experience, the beverages and food are warm and comforting. I personally love the size of their tea cup 😄 service is quick. Ideal for a quick stopover - especially if you're with kids cos it's right outside Hamleys and MiniSo where kids can entertain themselves while you get to sit and enjoy a cup of tea.

Nice food good service , choices are less but good for quick bites
The best thing about this place is the location. When you are around MG Road, it's a cosy place to sit down for a while to catch up with a friend. It can get noisy and crowded during peak hours but otherwise it's quite nice. I love the inverted pineapple cake here. Lemon iced tea, brownies, etc are pretty good too. Their puffs and crossiants don't look appetizing so never tried those.
Small cosy coffee shop on the first floor of 1MG Lido mall, next to Hamleys. Their African Sunrise tea is a must try. Well even the red velvet brownie was nice
A minute walk from the trinity metro, an ideal place for your meets. The coffee is awesome. Some of the bites like the blueberry, marble cake is too good.
They're closed their main cafe and reduced the size to cafe stall in the middle of hall. The ambience is worse than before but their coffee and cakes are still good.
Had very good coffee here. Quite expensive too. Once in a blue moon kinda of splurge only place. Loved the ambience.
Tried the mocha here. Something different from the CCDs. A nice chocolaty flavour to it along with the shake being thick and heavy! Interesting stuff.
Good for a great cup of mocha, cappuccino and other cold beverages. U should check out their cheesecakes... Amazing stuffs
It's ok ok....its self service it's ok but after drinking or eating we should nly take tray n give it to them.i DNT know when I went it happens same thing.
And veg recipes not available.
Staff was sweet food's good ambience is nice
