Plates for a slow afternoon
The kitchen writes a short card and keeps to it. A kathi roll still warm from the tawa, paneer with mint, a mango lassi if the fruit is good, and coffee that is not in a hurry.
Soft Hour is a café first. Stay for one cup, or stay through the hour the room was named for.

From our menu
A few familiar plates
Friday listening
A quiet set after dinner on the first Friday of the month. Seats are the ordinary ones.
Sunday lunch
A long table from half past twelve. The kitchen writes a shorter card and takes its time.

Buy one drink, get one free
Every day at the bar, between three and six. Ask when you order the second glass. It is a house note, not a voucher.
The kitchen
Made with love
Soft Hour started as a coffee counter and grew a kitchen beside it. The name is the part of the day when the room is fullest and nobody is watching the clock. We still cook as if the table is a friend’s.
