B. Merwan & Co.

First I went at B. Merwan & Co. after Heritage Walk this year. I was amazed with the old charm and ambience of this place. It is reflected in the wooden chairs, mirrors & paintings over there. Their Mawa & Walnut Cakes were delicious ! No waiting (Sunday morning). For sometime definitely, this place will take you to the bygone era.

B. Merwan is truly a gem — one of the best Irani cafés in Mumbai! Their cakes are always fresh and piping hot, especially the iconic mawa cake — simply unbeatable. Other must-tries include bun maska, brun maska, omelette pav, and cheese omelette pav. The only small feedback: the cheese used in the omelette comes in small pieces instead of being shredded — a minor thing, but worth noting. As usual, it’s a cash-only place, though some locations now accept UPI. That said, it’s widely known that traditional Irani cafés usually prefer cash. Overall, the food quality is top-notch, and the old-school charm makes it a must-visit in Mumbai!

Went there for breakfast on a Saturday morning, and asked - politely - to the old man at the counter on what are the popular cake items. He replies, aggresively, that the menu is in front of you, stop asking me pointless questions and goes on a rant. The response to such an innocuous question was kind of wild. The rude old man at the counter has a lot of ego and pride that this is a "100 year old place". Uncle - that doesn't substitute warm and hospitable Bharatiya service. Be better. Food was okay. You don't go here for the food but old school charm. Personally - I will not be visiting again.

An amazing place to go for B. Merwan lovers. No change at all. Bun maska, kadak pav maska and omelette, veg puff ( melt in the mouth), custard, mava cake...ufffff!

Spoiled its legacy in post covid. The prepaid coupon way of ordering is so not helpful at least for us customers. Taste wise they've lost the charm. Nothing feels fresh and the experience of having a meal in those retro wooden chairs is absolutely trash.

Good for a little refreshment during a busy day. The Maska pav is a treat, however Mawa cake has lost its charm.

When i reached there at evening, Mava cake was not there. Bunk muska was superb Akori pav was okay. Self service restaurant and cash only. Owner is a friendly person.

A rather busy coffee tea shop selling breads and pastries. The order was swift, although the queue was long, but it moved fast. Tables are full, and sharing one with another patrons is acceptable here. I had tea and a cake (i was told that it is a must try) Payment at the counter first before you make your way to collect the food and drink. Tastes are just fine, but the atmosphere in this old establishment is good and nostalgic.
