Its a Must try for Veg. Lovers...!!
Best coffee. But price are high. Coffee is the best here. #annanagar #annanagarwest #coffee #dosa #southindian #bonda #tea #vadai you can try vadai, bonda here with coconut chutney
Love the coffee .. and the quick meals is really filling .. love the Parotha as well .. service wish quick .. friendly staff.. however the coffee is the highlight
One of the best place for Coffee in Anna Nagar West. Breakfast items like Dosa, Rava Dosa, idly etc are good too. About Meals they're average.
Was home alone recently for a month or so. Wanted to find a place with decent tasting food which was not too expensive and ended up finding a place which is was more than decent with extremely reasonable prices. Used to alternate between mini meals which is Rs. 99, chapathi kurma which is Rs. 59, all types of India rice which are priced at Rs. 58. Giving it a 4/5 based on VFM factor and decent taste and quality. Used to love their Gobi Manchurian as a school kid. Haven't tried it recently.
BEST COFFEE in the locality.
After a early morning run mind and body both screamed coffee and so I decided to walk into HotChips. They were just setting up things and I was the 3rd or 4th customer. Ordered a mini filter coffee(20₹).
Got my coffee and grabbed a seat. Keep in mind it's a self service restaurant(in Non AC). The coffee was just perfect with the right proportion of decotion and I specifically asked for half sugar. The froth and the extra decotion overflowing will make you fall in love with real coffee all over again if you have been cheating with CCD and Starbucks.😜😜
From my limited knowledge here in Anna Nagar I would say this is the best coffee in the locality closely followed by Balajee Bhavan near Chintamani.
Now I got one more motivation to for early morning jogs going forward. Sadly Zomato doesn't deliver for this restaurant. Swiggy does and not so sure about ubereats.
Amazing food at the lowest price possible the quality is amazing. The packaging is so so good surely hundred percent is recommended go ahead and order food from hot chips
This place brings lots of memory to me!! I have been coming here since my 7th std!! And we come here for our tea break in Office!!
They still maintain their taste!!
Perfect filter coffee
Yummmy vadai!!
Food:- good
Cost:- perfect
Service:- self service
Ambience:- old school
This veg outlet has good tasty meals which is nominally priced. Their starters are good esp Gobi Manchurian dry and Chilly Panner. Sambar vada also not to mention is also really good. The main reason I like this place is for their Tea, they have one of the best Tea's (Assam Tea) which is similar to Buhari's. The Filter Coffee served here is also Really Authentic.
The South Indian dishes ordered were awesome I feel wen I enter into a South Indian hotel I expect the sambar to be the best .. and it was pretty decent too .. and the dosai to be non crispy cus I find no use it’s like having biscuit .. but here the dosai wasn’t like that which I liked .. noodles and manchurian were also pretty good ..
i have been here many times with my friends and family too. Veg Food is Good and the Service is fine and cleanliness is not upto mark as before They have to concentrate on cleanliness
Great food bit costly compared to regular eateries, service being provided only for ac section, self service for non ac. Nice ambience to HV food with family
Perfect place to have breakfast , lunch or dinner. Value for money guaranteed. Quick service and great place for seating. Food from all parts of India available at genuine rate.
We went there around 10:30 pm and they had what ever we asked for even though it was almost their closing time. Hot and good quality food. Absolutely loved the experience. Waiters were friendly. We had rava dosa, kal dosa and chapathi everything was delicious. Would go there any day.
taste:
everything that we order tastes good. i would suggest the following if you would like to visit this restaurant.
1.mini tiffin
2.mini coffee
3.chola poori
4.poori and aloo masala
5.parotta and veg kuruma
juice and chat items also tastes fine but are expensive for the taste and quantity. a good place to have a quick meal in anna nagar especially for vegetarians.
ambience:
there is a self service section and also an air conditioned section where you can get your food served. ambience is okay and it is crowded most of the times.
delivery:
got food delivered twice.. no delays.

Excellent once upon a time, but they have to do their home work daily. Taste should not be a question for a restaurant. Needs some care and guidance. The selling USP is down here now may be too much of competition near by..... Etc. It should be crowded those days, but not now. Known for Quick bites.
Hot chips is the best place for veggies
Been here many time but its bit crowded always coz of the taste this guys deliver
Best food to try here panniyaram and ghee roast
You guys will love it this place is not the right one to try Chineseeeeeee
Best place for family
Hot chips - For veggies it's a definite treat !!
Located in Anna Nagar West main road and easy to spot !
I have been to this place twice !! Yeah just twice 😆 me being a carnivore , I mostly visit non veg restaurants ! So I had visited this place to try their breakfast once .
Their ghee roast was too good with the perfect sambhar and chutneys !!
Also have tried their veg pulav and chilli paneer ! Which was decent as well!
Self Service it is !
No complaints on food!
Would visit this place for a quick meal or breakfast !
Another of my haunts during my time in Chennai. Used to go there for breakfast during weekends. Idlis were good, their 14 idli plate was great. Sambhar idli too was good. Strong filter coffee used to complete the equation! Recommended!
Food is decent and too expensive for it's taste. Place is ideal place to come to after a shopping spree in anna nagar. It's one of those places when you come relax, have that excellent coffee and go. I'd recommend the coffee served there. It's just too good when served by one particular lad who works there. He should get better pay, lol.
Had a quick mini lunch and it was packed & delivered.
It's easy on the purse and easier on the stomach. Taste is good and the quantity is adequate
Today morning I got up late unable to go out for breakfast so thought of ordering online. After spending some time decided for going with Hot Chip which was safer option among whatever available at that time.
I have gone to this place years ago. After that, today only I had their food. I ordered Pongal plus vadai and onion dosai. Swiggy delivered it in no time. Food came hot and fresh. Taste is decent. Even sambar and chutneys are also ok. Safe option but not attractive to revisit. Price is reasonable. Can give a try if you are running out of options.
The only place where i have parotta and the place which made me like the baby corns :D
It is an average place, the ambiance and the parking and finding seats is not really great but the taste of the food makes up for it :D
Try out their noodles too :D
A good place for South Indian food. Went here a few days back. Their sambhar was excellent. And I particularly enjoyed their pongal. Good quality and service.
i have been to this place few times. normal vegetarian south indian food joint. i like pineapple kesari here give it a try! i have tried mini tiffin, mini meals, coffee, sambhar idly, panner dosa, butter masala dosa. it was okay. self service. and about food you cant complain but u are praise it either.

Not average hotel, its an above-average one. If you don't like to wait for your to come except chat and beverages, just step out and turn left, you have Karthik Tiffin Centre. Good service. No good ambience.
Usual south Indian veg varieties. Little over priced. Madras best coffee ( thts wat they claim) u also get chats n parotta varieties. Good parking space. Nothing much to be mentioned otherwise. I visit regularly fr a quick bite.
Been here so many times.quality of food is good.their ghee roast is unbeatable and a must try dish.mini idlis are also very delicious completely seasoned in ghee.ambience is good and hygienic.rates are nominal.if they provide dishes in porcelain or steel plates it would be good.they are serving dishes hot in plastic plates which need to be avoided.another minus is most of the dishes in menu card are not available.hot chips is a good hunger pacifying place.

I was coming the other day with my friend and it was evening and time for a cup of coffee and he took me to Hot chips at Annanagar West. We could park the car little away and we had bonda and onion bajji with a cup of coffee. Somehow managed to get a table, the stuff were very delicious and coffee was also quite tasty. This was my first visit to Hot Chips as I am new to Chennai and not yet familiar with all the restaurants around Chennai. Zomato is very helpful in taking us to the place of our choice and are doing a wonderful job in this direction.
Was here for breakfast few days back. Ordered mini idly, Pongal, dosa and Coffee. Mini idly was good, how its very pricey compared to the quantity, pongal was good and dosa was very thin, but tasted good with sambar. I believe these days the restos have mastered in preparing wafer thin dosas at exorbitant price. The coffee was real good.
The place is of self service.. Little expensive compared with other similar self service restaurant.. The taste is good.. Ordered ghee roast, the chutneys, sambar also taste equally good.. The table is clean and comfortable to sit.. Purified water is also served.. Overall, a good place for those who want to have food as fast as possible.
What can be the reason to visit other than the all famous "Filter Coffee". Yes it was perfect for the winters. Also ordered the Mini Tiffin which you can't find in lot of places. I must say it was cute, mini masala dosai, mini sambar Vadai, lovely upma and mini idlis. All were made to perfection.
Sunday lunch ! Super soft phulkas, shezwan noodles , musk melon juice! Service was ok! Any item u choose u pay 100bucks! Something that is not ok in these chain restaurants!
Its a regularly frequented spot by working professionals and students in Anna Nagar for some coffee/tea or lunch. It is pretty much a landmark.
Food: Standard high quality fast food. No surprises here though a bit pricey! Love their sambar rice. Their MEALS are good, both the traditional and variety rice ones.
Ambience: The AC section is good. The non AC is unfortunately an open section of the restaurant facing the road. Though it isn't noticeable the dust from the roads is gonna seep in.
Staff Behaviour: They are efficient, sometimes over enthusiastic as they will take away your plates before you actually leave the table. :-D
The tried and tested Hot chips is still amongst the best, whether it is a delicious South Indian breakfast with delightful filter coffee or trying out a variety of North Indian dishes for dinner. Been there several times and would never miss out on a mini coffee, easily the best I be had in Chennai.
Will keep returning whenever I feel like having a decent Namma oor tiffin...

Hot chips , a veg restaurant for anna nagar ppl. Nothing to comment on ambiance as it purely chennai classical style. Its has AC and Non AC divisions ,Non AC is self served , good food. You often dont get a place to sit.

I love the hot cup of coffee they serve. They also have good range of juices and chaat items. Although the chaat items aren't authentic. It's very reasonably priced and neat and clean.
its better for a breakfast or tiffin, but its rates are equivalent to saravanabhavan. we will not be able to compare the quality of hot chips with saravanabhavan. the rates of chineese and north indian dishes are very high and with less quantities, the main hidden secret is it had a sewage problem the place under the hotel is contaminated. and dont drink water there.

One of the very comfort dining experience i always had!! For some reason, even having many cozy restos around, i end up dining @ hotchips, annanagar. Had been to this place, umpteen number of times and that not even once they had let down in the quality of food or their service. Best place for a family Vegetarian dining.
Positives:
Timely and customer-friendly service. No complaints! :)
Yummy Food. I Just love their north Indian dishes, which is served the best when compared with any other south Indian food joints! The varieties are limited:) However, they don't fail serving the best of the ones listed on the menu. Am a big time fan of their "Fried Noodles". Their noodles are real-time crispy and fried best and had never been soggy. However, i make it a point to them while ordering, to ensure that the noodles are perfectly fried. and they had always promised my request. :)
Prices are so economical and worth spending :)
Happy dining is much assured :)
And, the above review is about the non-self service, A/C Dining :)
If i could title this it would be....'Great Coffee Place'
Everything else is just Normal (though i love their Masala Dosas)... The only reminisce of this would be having Breakfast with my wife on a lazy Saturday morning. you go there a bit late, you will end up with almost nothing but Dosas (that explain why i always end up wit masala Dosa).
What is a good South Indian Tiffen without a Nice Hot cup of Coffee!! even Better is the Filter Coffee... I would any-day prefer the Coffee served compered to the cappuccinos served in a Coffee Pub. and i think its their signature dish and its an undisputed winner of the best coffee served in Chennai.
Hot chips has been a hit in the area since it was started because of the low cost and also decent food. It is totally within budget and service is quite fast.
It has a non AC self service area and also an AC lounge. South indian and certain north indian dishes are available. The food tastes good but if you are expecting a great variety and unique food, this is not the place to be.
It is best for the hungry ones wanting some decent veggie food.
