Writer’s Cafe in Egmore is a great spot to enjoy good food and a cozy atmosphere. Their wood-fired pizzas, pastas, and freshly brewed coffee are delicious, and the desserts, especially the Swiss chocolate cake, are worth trying. What sets them apart is their social initiative of supporting acid attack survivors, which adds a meaningful touch to your visit. The staff can be more active and friendly, and the pricing is bit high. Overall, it’s a nice place for a meal or a coffee break. Highly recommended!

Overall, Writer’s Cafe provides a satisfying dining experience that combines quality food with a heartwarming purpose. Fish fingers were also crunchy and tasty. Price was okay.

Atmosphere is lit, good crowd, the lemon chicken and cappuccino for me worked. Service is average but it’s all good.

Writer’s Cafe in Egmore is a solid café if you’re looking for a place that balances decent (often good) food, relaxed vibes, and a community/bookish touch. It’s especially good for leisurely brunches, desserts, or hanging out with friends.

Writers Café is one of my favourite cafés in Chennai. I’m a big fan of their mac and cheese, and recently I’ve started loving their chicken lasagne too. Their pizzas are always amazing!

Visiting this spot for the first time and I am pleasantly surprised at how good it was. We didn't have anything major, just some fries, Korean Cream Cheese Bun, Korean Saucy Wings, Nashville Burger and Black Ebony dessert. The food tasted great. The service was good for us. Loved the ambiance. Parking can be tricky, but we managed.
