Nice fat fillet of bhetki in the fry which was juicy and very tasty, fish fingers were also equally juicy and fish was fresh.. no complaint. Only setback was the mutton cutlet where the mutton mince was gamey and I quite did not like it. A small joint where seating capacity is very less and crowded but the rating goes definitely fir the food served here. Cheers!!

This food joint offers amazing snacks. Located in one of the most prominent places of Kolkata, Shyambazar, the place has become iconic for its amazing fish fries, fish rolls and kabirajis. Its a very old shop with limited seating area. However, they never compromise on their quality and freshness. They also serve a wide range of other items, starting from chicken rolls to Chinese. Highly recommended for everyone.

One of the well known outlet in kolkata. It is situated in shyam bazar. Menu is limited. I ordered "Fish Finger" which was priced @199/- for 6 pieces. The taste was very authentic and flavourful. I was totally satisfied with it. Talking about their pricing, i felt it on a higher side . However, i definitely recommend this outlet.

Pricing - 3.5/5
Taste - 5/5

One of the oldest places in Kolkata. They have been famous for over a century now for the delicacies they serve in reasonable price. The most famous and most mouthwatering is their Fish Kabiraji. It is the best I've ever tried. This place is highly recommended for their homely atmosphere and delicious food.

Very small, cute and Pocket friendly restaurant located near shyam Bazar more. This is the first time when I have visited this restaurant. The ambience is very unique ( quite small ). If you are taller than 5.3 feet then I think it will be a little issue for you to stand straight.
Now let's talk about the food. This is the first time I have tried their diamond fish fry and I really liked it. It was crispy and crunchy. But what I didn't like was their prawn cutlet. It wasn't that good even the prawns were not that tasty. I highly recommed the diamond fish fry rather than the prawn cutlet.
This place is quite pocket-friendly so if you are a college student you can definitely visit this place. Recommended 👍😍😍

With a location as prominent as that of Shyambazar , Mitra Cafe provides us with both, a friendly ambience and a friendly set of staffs. A very pocket friendly place and is perfect for small hangouts. Now let's move on to the dishes.

Rating - 4.5/5.

2. \\🍖 Chicken Cutlet🍖\\ - RS. 95. Superrrr tasty❤❤.
Rating- 4.5/5.

3. \\🐟Fish fry🐟\\ - Rs. 95. Very heavenly again.
Rating- 4.5/5.

4. \\🍖Dry Chilli chicken🍖\\ - Rs.168. Good in taste.

No nonsense..this food joint serves the best finger food in Kolkata..and with an added hint to its heritage of North Kolkata food wonders. My all time favourite is ofcourse Fish Kabiraji.. In fact, their fish delicacies are perfect. And this outlet is located very near the Shyambazar Metro Gate 1. Don't miss it!

Fish Fry ⤵️

The fish fry was large enough and it was perfectly coated with breadcrumbs and it also had a crispness. Inside it contained Bhetki Fish, which was fresh and amazing to have as a evening snack.

The nostalgic place for Bengalis. The namer
is enough for fries and Adda. Visited many times. Specialist in Fish Fry,Fish Kabiraji, Chicken cutlet. However, the chutney and mashed potato doesn't go well with these dishes specially in the Shyambazar branch. But love the quality of the fish. Didn't like the taste of Afghani here.

Traditional and Tasty
Mitra Cafe has maintained its traditional touch and flavour for the last 100 years. The taste lingers in the mouth long after one has finished eating. Must try the Diamond Fry, Fish Kabiraji, Brain Chop ( which gets finished in a jiffy) and other fish delicacies.

Most famous place in Kolkata.....everyone know the name of course. I have tried Fish Fry with my friends group. Store provided cucumber and onion salad and kasundi. Fish fry is very nicely coocked. They used very fresh fish for that. The outside coating is very light and every bite is melting on my mouth. There no bad smell on fish. Price is slightly high. Overall good as a evening snacks.

Located at the busy Shyam Bazar road . It's definitely a legendary snacks corner in Kolkata with its 100 years tradition still being maintained carefully. The prices have never increased from its opening to promote cheap breakfast for all. The mouthwatering crunchy Fish Fries and Kabirajis are the best out of here .Moreover the Mutton brain cutlet is their signature dish with a huge tan following. Their is a small sitting area though most the people love to take aways.

This Lendendary outlet is surely a must visit as this is one of my favorite places...Thank You

Just walking distance from Shyambazar metro gates. Mitra cafe lies deep within the hearts of the food loving Bengalis and very frequently they visit this place. From kabirajis to fish fries to cutlets. This is well know for the snakes which everyone loves to have anytime anyday. With a vast history, Mitra Cafe is well known among people throughout kolkata and the taste stays forever in the heart of the taster.

This place doesn't wait to be said.. One of the heritages of the City of Joy.. I tried FISH SPECIAL DIAMOND FRY, MUTTON CHOP & MUTTON KOSA.. The FISH SPECIAL DIAMOND FRY was very crispy, the MUTTON CHOP was also delicious..The MUTTON KOSA tasted average to me.. May be it's not but taste varies person to person.. Over all, it's good,, one should give a try..

Love mutton chops and vegetable chops at this outlet of Mitra Cafe, recent experience is not satisfactory. Mutton chops are not that tasteful anymore. Its a famous chain for cutlet, chops, kobirajis , brain chop and stew. Its an emotion and religion for foodies in Kolkata and outskirts. I have got enormous love for the entire chain.

I believe this one is the oldest outlet among the others.. Just a few steps ahead of Shyambazar Metro Station. Still they redesigned a portion and put ACs. Coming to the food, went for a quick snack. Ordered their famous fish kabiraji, chicken kabiraji and mutton afgani. Awesome taste, served quick and served hot. Would like to try their other dishes.

Mitra Cafe, just 2 mins. walk from Shyambazar Metro Gate 1 is a cosy eatery joint which serves authentic fried items. The food joint is more than 100 years and by far the crowd favourite for quick fried cravings. The food is amazing, and the fish fry is yet favourite for many.
The Shyambazar outlet offers different varieties of rolls.And people love it.
These are some of the items that I have tried:-

North Kolkata one of the oldest place for snacks , what we are hearing since our Childhood...

Kabiraji is one of the best food, but it should only be taken if you have good digestive system , if not please go for butter fry/ chicken cutlets/ fish fingers ctc...

Quality is still maintained but it's nothing that others can't bet them in taste....

A small place & has two sections..on the top floor they provide seats for 18 people(air-conditioned)...on the ground floor not more than 4 people..
Now the food...overall quite ok.. quality & quantity is fair enough..
In frame : Chicken Kabiraji - it is more than sufficient for one people..it tastes really good. It's the famous dish of this place would like to recommend.

The name itself is a review. They will give the glimpses of Bengali lifestyle in Kolkata in pre independence era. The place looks vintage (not old). They r famous for their Fish Kobiraji but believe me their mutton items r far more better than that. Everyone must try the Mutton Afghani n Mutton cutlet

Kolkata's one of the finest place for kabiraji, fish fry and much more, is located opposite to shymbajar metro. We went there yesterday for a quick bite, but unfortunately both kabiraji and butter fry was sold out as it was 8:30pm. Then we ordered for fish fingers, lachcha parathas and chicken kassa. The fish fingers and kassa were excellent but the chicken kasa was little bit oily. Otherwise the food quality and quantity were superb. The staffs were also good. They have a take away counter and the sitting arrangement was done in a small place on the mezzanine floor. So, don't expect decor and ambiance, moreover if you are not lucky, you have to share your table, because there are only 3 tables.

We went to the Mitra Cafe Shyam bazar branch. I didn't expect the cafe to be this small! Only nine people can sit there at a time since there is a table for four, a table for two and a table for three. So we had to wait for like 10 minutes. We had fish fingers and fish fries. Food was good, albeit high priced. Serving was quick. Staffs are also very polite. Because of the shortage of space, this branch is more suitable for takeout than dine in.

It's a small joint, (currently it has gone 20 steps ahead of the original place as construction is going on) famous for its diamond kabiraji.. one can try their other items too. I had tried Mutton Afghani & Egg moglai+Mutton kasha. Coming to the taste they both are decent. Mutton Afghani is kind of kabiraji except you don't get the fluffy egg wash instead it served with gravy.
