boston cafe

was in search for a quick bite and this place had very good ratings!
now this is a small homely cafe with a few tables, but the place is quite clean.
the owner is mr lovell fernandez, very cheerful guy and helped us choose from his vast menu. if you find the ambience not up to your standard, please don't turn away! the food was absolutely fabulous! really blew us away! we had thebeefstake,beefchili, crab masala and the prawn combo meal.we also tried the mint drink and it was fabulous.
the crab masala was shredded crab meat fried with south indian spices. it had excellent flavor. thebeefstake was very tender and juicy. thebeefchili was also very well flavored. the combo meal had fried rice, salad, french fries and the chili prawn in batter. all the portions we're very good!

i could go on and on but to keep it short, it's an excellent place for some local food! go there if you love to eat and need value for money.

boston cafe is just the place for you if you're looking for a non-commercialized restaurant that emphasizes more on the taste of the food and their customers. during our stay in pondy we had visited here couple of times and we were not disappointed. everything we ordered was just perfect. both thebeefcurry and the fish curry with rice was amazingly tasty and so was the fish nuggets and fries. the owner of the restaurant and his staff was quite friendly and welcoming. until zomato publishes their latest menu here are some pictures of their menu and couple of dishes we had. 

trips to pondy mean visiting places like cafe xtasi, zuka, baker street etc but these are well explored now. so looking for something different for lunch, noticed this small cafe serving everything from parottas to burgers to steaks with rice and fresh juices at a very decent price. so we decided to try out this place last visit and loved it!

on reaching the location, we were surprised with the size. it looked quite small with only a few tables inside. but then, never judge a restaurant by its size as long as it serves great food, that's what matters. ambiance was ordinary with a few tables n plastic chairs but neat. seating for about 20 people at most with additional space upstairs.

the owner himself was at the cash table taking care of business and it was his family doing the cooking inside. very homely setup and he suggested us to definitely try thebeefdishes since that's what they were known for it seems. so we ordered 1beefbiriyani (rs 140), 1beefcurry (rs 140) for me along with a parotta set (rs 35), 1 rice and chicken curry (rs 150). ordered mint lime juices (rs 25) while waiting.

the mint lime juice came soon and it was very freshly made. could see it from the bright green from the ground mint. this place is known for this juice. two of us ordered another glass.

thebeefbiriyani and parrota withbeefcurry came first and it was excellent. my parottas were some of the best i've had with that crunch n flakiness while thebeefwas very tender in the medium spicy curry. it didn't have any coconut oil flavor in it so probably not kerala style.

beef biriyani which i had a taste of was again lovely with lots of tender meat pieces and a mildly spicy flavor. the best dish however was thebeefroast which was recommended and impressed us with the flavor and tenderness. got over within a minute. being anglo indians, they know how to prepare meat well. we had to order another serving to satisfy our craving. the homely flavor (in a yummy way :p ) in all the dishes was unmistakeable and seems to be focal point of this must try place. i could see the entire family helping with the cooking in the kitchen so that's not surprising.

service was excellent with water being served immediately and the owner was genial. unfortunately this was the last meal in pondy before heading back but next visit we would surely visit here first and try some of their other dishes like thebeefburgers etc. and of course, many dishes here would be ideal "side-dishes" as well. ;-)

haven't tried the full menu. giving 5 stars for the rice +beefcurry combo. priced at 170 bucks, it's total vfm. thebeefwas so soft and tender, literally melted in my mouth. will definitely recommend it!

we have been visiting pondicherry for 10 years but visited this place for the first time today, thanks to zomato. a humble eatery tucked inside a small lane of pondicherry which is not too inviting from outside since its a small place. being a foodie and a traveller, i have tried almost all good places in pondicherry, from surguru to villa shanti. have liked the food there but haven't tasted such tasty, home cooked meal which i had today at boston cafe. we ordred chicken curry rice combo andbeefcurry rice combo. both were super delicious. i haven't had a tastier and tenderbeefbefore. just loved it. chicken curry was also amazing, especially the gravy. there are value adds too, rasam, papad etc which aren't mentioned in the menu. chicken sandwich was also good. the owner is a very friendly person. and the prices are very reasonable. quality of food is really good. this is a must visit place if you are in pondicherry!

if you are out there in pondicherry to explore eateries, this nice small cafe is a must go. a less talked about place with a friendly decent decor, this place serves the most tastebud tingling foods. must try out thebeefsteak, properly cooked with perfect tenderness. fish and chips is also a must go for this place.

it was almost evening and was in the hunt for a good café/snack spot. like i always believe, most of the best foods are only found in small/hidden places. this is one such place with narrow table space and limited seating.

being an ardent chicken lover went after the chicken patty burger for the start. i was surprised to see the layers on it with great cheese and soft chicken in the middle. the oozing cheese challenged me to eat without getting my hands dirty; but, naaaa, i accepted my defeat and hugged it with both hands.
they recommended me to try out theirbeefsandwich since they served the best in the town. they couldn’t have sounded any better since it was definitely the best. the groundbeefdidn’t make me realize that i was eating beef. it was spicy, juicy and with the mint cooler, the flavours were kicking all around the mouth.

the service was courteous, but parking could be tricky at times. 

so we went there after knowing that this place is good. we order chicken biriyani, prawn biriyani,beefburger combo, chicken burger combo, veg burger combo, peri peri fries, cold coffee, veg pulao, paneer masala, veg noodles, mashed potatoes with egg and steak. their service was too good, they were attending you like real quick, most of the dishes were too good. their veg noodles and pulao were just okay. definitely worth the money. their burger were so yummy. do visit if you go to pondicherry

visited this cafe to celebrate my wife's birthday and ended up in tasting finger licking gooooood food.

below are the items we ordered.

soup: veg cream(80 rs)
starters: cheese balls(170 rs), paneer fingers(150 rs), prawn pepper(250 rs), chilly beef(180 rs)
main course: chicken steak(280 rs),beefbiriyani(160 rs), chicken n veg pulao(160/100 rs), boston special chicken burger(160 rs)
drinks: cold coffee, lassi

all the items mentioned above are top notch. meats are so fresh, juicy and tender. i came to know from my friend that they will start preparing each n every food(except biriyanis/pulao) only after we place an order. hence each order will take 20 to 25 minutes of preparation time. to avoid this, you can call the owner cum chef, preorder your food and get it served on time.

pin kurippu: zomato kooda edho panjaayathu pola. adha naala, zomato marked this place as "temporarily closed". poli'galai nambaadheer. location and address'irkku google aandavarai thodarbu kollavum.

one of the best cafes, the bestbeefburgers and loved the chicken meatballs. loved interacting with the owners of this cafe❤️

have to try theirbeefburger. its a small and compact place. its a one man show out there, the owner does ecerything.

after having heard great reviews, we made it to this place for dinner. staff was very helpful.beefburger andbeefsteak was fantastic.definitely on my favourite list now. thanks for the experience.

visited on seeing lot of positive review.they have one of the bestbeefsteak and burger.service was nice and the owner was humble.it is worth every penny.considering price tag this is one gem of a cafe.highly recommended for steak lovers...

was there with my friend, we orderedbeefroast and chicken fried rice. this restaurant is worth visiting.
planning to hop in several times.

the place is small with ‘okay’ ambiance, but the everyother dish in the menu won’t disappoint you and the staffs are friendly. they are renowned for thierbeefquality and taste. since the steak was made of minced beef, they couldn’t serve as medium or rare. overall worth the money and will visit again. peace and cheers.
