Theobroma

1.0

The brownie chain's very first store, tucked into the Parsi enclave of Cusrow Baug.

This is where the chain started, and it still draws a steady line for brownies and puffs — but it's a grab-and-go bakery counter with a couple of stools, not a seating cafe for lingering. Great for a sugar break between causeway errands.

24, Cusrow Baug, Shahid Bhagat Singh Road, Colaba, Mumbai 400001

A dessert landmark, not a work cafe — go for the brownies, not the laptop.

We last checked this cafe on 2026-09-23. 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?
