Kolkata Chai Co - East Village

Came in for the chai soft serve and it tasted completely off at this location.

Barely any chai flavour and just tasted like super sweet oatmilk.

I visited Kolkata Chai recently, and I had a very bad experience because of the staff working there. Priyam was the guy taking my order and he was very rude and was giving me attitude as I was simply asking questions about their menu. I was taken back Because I was very excited to try this place. This was the first time I had visited this spot and quite frankly, this interaction completely ruined my experience here. If they had Good employees, who actually cared about their customers I’m sure this place would be very successful. I hope that they can better their staff and the service that they provide because I’ll never be coming here again.

The Iced Lavender Chai is soooooo good. Very friendly staff and quick service

My go-to spot for authentic chai lattes. It isn’t sweet (like at other shops) but you can get sweeteners added or flavored foams which are always good options to have. The lavender chai is so delicious and the cardamom foam is also a great addition to the regular chai. They have regular and decaf chai which is also appreciated. The food is also extremely delicious although depending on what you order, it may take a bit of time to make. The Cardamon pastry and samosas are my favorites. They also have coffee. It’s a small spot, so not really a place where you can hang out but still highly recommend!

I ♥️ Kolkata! Their Chai is so delicious, not too sweet. The egg roll is my favorite. The paratha that it is wrapped in is perfectly flaky and tasty. The egg along with pickled onions and green chutney is soooooo good! The price is also fantastic. Whenever I go there the people working the counter are very nice. Sometimes they have special discounts if you buy a drink with food.

Best chai in NYC. Love the samosas and breakfast paratha too!

Can truly say they’re a part of my NY rituals. Love it here. I make their chai every morning.

My fav chai place in the EV! Great service, atmosphere and food!

all who works at the east third street location are literal angels. amazing chai and lovely people!

Meh! The Masala Chai Mix is okay, average, but nothing special. It has no flavor at the recommended concentration so I used 1.5 times to get some flavor, and most of that was from the ginger I infused into it.

It’s flavorful and doesn’t have all that extra sugar. Easy to make. I love the recipes people are sending in as well!

Fiyaaaa chai!

Amazing chai. Obviously going to be huge really soon
