Chia Taj View Cafe

(09/25) The best views of the Taj Mahal. Period. And on top of that, the best coffee and cappuccino (Lavazza!). It’s the tallest building in the Taj Ganj area, offering a full 360° view from the rooftop. When you enter, take the staircase immediately to the right. Be aware: the entrance is shared with Joey’s Place, and their staff may try to redirect you to their own rooftop café, Hippy Bar. The food here is delicious, and the service is excellent. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming—they even remembered us when we came back a second time! Don’t be discouraged by the occasional one-star reviews; many of those seem to come from local guests expecting five-star luxury service. The only downside is the price, which is definitely on the higher side. We paid ₹1,100 for one curry with rice, naan, and two drinks, and ₹460 on another day for a cappuccino, chai, and water. Still, for the best view of the Taj Mahal and the best coffee in town, it’s worth it.

An unforgettable experience! Service is quick and friendly, with dishes arriving in no time. The homemade croquettes are simply outstanding—crispy on the outside, melt-in-your-mouth inside—and the fruit salad is a burst of freshness and flavor. The highlight, though, is the breathtaking view of the Taj Mahal from the terrace. Dining with this iconic monument in front of you is truly magical.

This place was probably the best rooftop in the area. It's above joeys hostel and trust me it is a million times better than the joeys hostel cafe called hippie. Staff will push you to go there but do not it's really bad. This place is very expensive and overpriced but that seems to be the vibe for agra. The food is ok, nothing special but the restaurant atmosphere and comfort is worth it. They have good food options and everything we had was ok. The staff are also very nice and sweet and will try to help you and give you advice on all travel.

Wonderful cafe! Not only the drinks are very good but the staff is super nice. Thanks to Bobby for his kindness and taking such good care of us. We really felt at home. Cherry on the cake: you can’t beat the view on the Taj Mahal 😍 we stayed until the sunset. Just woah 🙏

I and my friend had gone here to grab coffee and unwind after visiting the Taj and Agra fort. The view of the Taj from the restaurant is breathtaking. The staff too were very warm. 5⭐

Amazing view, tasty parantha, friendly staff. Washroom can be better but not too bad. Slightly high priced for Indians but the view is worth it!

Nice cafe. There is a great terrace with amazing views. The Taj Mahal is clearly visible. The food is delicious, the coffee is great. There is a breakfast menu there is wi-fi. The staff is hospitable and quick.
