South Bombay: cafes you can work from

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.

  • Quiet

    Bakery-counter format, brisk footfall

  • Seating

    Reviews describe the shop as 'small with little wooden chairs and square tables and is always crowded'; limited seating cited as a downside (though quieter during the day).
