Cafe Military

0.4

One of the last real Irani cafes in Fort. Berry pulao, bare walls, no concessions.

This is not a cafe in the sense the rest of this map means it, it is a canteen with ninety years of muscle memory. Go for the food and the fact that it still exists.

Ali Chambers, Tamarind Lane, Fort, Mumbai

A crowded, fanned 1933 Irani lunchroom: one reviewer says you can sit forever unbothered, others report rushed service and waits for tables. No wifi or outlets are mentioned anywhere.

  • Seating

    Reviews describe 'ample seating area' with wooden tables/chairs but note 'no frills, no class, and no AC' (LBB, Zomato aggregation)

We last checked this cafe on 2026-08-23. Wifi gets worse and rules change. If you're sitting there now, one tap keeps the next person honest.

Did the wifi hold up?
Could you plug in?
Did they let you stay?
