I have absolutely no idea how this place is rated so high. I had an artisanal sourdough Goan chorizo grilled cheese sandwich which costs ₹250 and I couldn't even find 10g of chorizo in it or taste it at all. When I asked them about it is when I got to know that it was pre-made, not sure when, at some other place and they just grill it and serve. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING. My wife ordered a roast chicken wrap and it was basically chicken curry rolled in a chapathi. When we asked the lady at the counter about it, she mentioned she can't do anything about it as food was pre made, god knows when, and they just heat and serve. Please find pictures attached for both. I was shocked to see how disappointing the food was considering the ratings. Learned my lesson and we're never visiting again.

Dear Arjun, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We want to clarify that all our food is prepared in-house with care. While we do source our bread from a trusted artisanal bakery that caters to a niche crowd in Kodaikanal —just as most kitchens do—we ensure that everything else, including our fillings, is made fresh in our own kitchen. Our artisanal sourdough Goan chorizo grilled cheese is designed to be a balance of flavors, where the chorizo complements the cheese and bread rather than overpowering it. It’s meant to be a sandwich, not a meat-heavy dish. That said, we understand that preferences vary, and we truly appreciate your input. Regarding your concern about the roast chicken wrap, we take this feedback seriously and will review our preparation to ensure it aligns with expectations. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope we can welcome you back in the future to provide a better experience. -Team Kantina.

Location is obviously spot on. But parking is going to be tricky esp. during high season. Filter coffee was excellent probably the best in Kodai in our experience. Small place though. Just tried a couple of items like cake and waffles; cake was good and waffles decent. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Hello Jay Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted you loved our filter coffee—your kind words mean a lot. We appreciate your feedback on the parking, especially during peak season. Kodaikanal Municipality is constructing multi storied parking lots (PT Road - back of Kantina) and that will ease the parking challenge. Happy to hear you enjoyed the cake. Hope to have you back soon to try more from our menu! -Team Kantina.

Tried thier peach iced tea, it was very nice. Their vanilla butter cake was so yumm, just melted in the mouth. We also tried the chilli cheese toast, it was yummy and felt homely. We had also ordered their aloo tikki wraps, they were okaish. Must try their butter cakes and iced tea. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: ₹200–400 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

A big hit with most of our guests. We appreciate your honest feedback on the aloo tikki wraps and will keep it in mind. Thanks for recommending our butter cakes and iced tea and a big "thanks" for posting the beautiful pictures—hope to see you again soon! -Team Kantina.
