Me with a book at Doppio Coffee and Bistro.

What if you could have a glimpse and vibe of Italy at the comfort of your city? Sounds great to me! Hey you bibliophile and coffee aficionado out there, I have an interesting place for you all at a pocket-friendly expense.

Located amidst the IT hub of Bhubaneshwar, Infocity, this cosy café is undoubtedly by far the best place to hang out with your loved ones. Doppio Coffee and Bistro is a new addition to the city of temples. Located beside the street, it is easily accessible via local transport and any mode of communication. If you’ve been here, let me know in the comments.

The Ambience and Vibe

The instagrammable outdoor sitting at Doppio Coffee and Bistro.

Doppio is ingeniously designed in Faux Bougainvillea, White & Pink Phlox, Lavender Globe Thistle and other red, purple & white flowers. This place channels an Italian vibe with the white and black décor and sitting arrangement on the outside. The Antique Wall Sconces add that romantic vibrance in the evening to the surrounding making it perfectly instagrammable. One drawback is that the place is limited.

The ambience inside is young, alla moda and fresh. You can go for a comfortable couch with cushions in one corner or a ligneous chair and table on the other. The ceiling panel is made of wood, adding that vintage touch. Above the billing counter, there are hanging plants and lamps and lights. Positivity is all around the atmosphere.

Beside the counter, there is a small corner for books, and the collection has romantic novels like A walk to remember by Nicholas sparks to motivating books like The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. A treat for book lovers indeed! Being a bibliophile, this feature of Doppio impressed me.

Foreign Flavour for Soul foodie

One of the refreshing Coolers at Doppio Coffe and Bistro.

The menu at Doppio highlights signature Italian and French cuisines. From Pasta to sandwiches and Coffee to Smoothies, you will find a wide range of items to cure your cravings. You can enjoy the baked version of Rasogulla, the state’s traditional dessert. They serve a variety of Iced tea. I had Iced Thai tea; chilled boost of Thai tea mix with a nutty undertone, perfect to quench your thirst and calm your senses.

Pasta is my go-to Italian grub. I had Del Barone Pasta made in classic bechamel (white sauce) with veggies. The perfectly cooked penne immersed in the hot sauce was a game-changer for my taste buds which complimented the rainy evening outside. Coffee addicts can find every variety of hot & cold coffee brewed to perfection at minimal rates. If you are someone who breathes chocolate, then you must try their assortment of Hot chocolate. Oh! The menu is vegan; if you are a hardcore non-veg, I think you will be disappointed here.

Piyush Mohapatra, a customer says, “Treat yourself at the most exquisite café in town. Choco maniacs must grab the giant “Chocolate Freak Shake” Immune Freaks must relish with “Wellness Tea” Coffeeholics must go for “Coconut Latte” And certainly, pick the “Chilli Cheese Toast” You surely should date a “book” from their compelling collection as well. And, don’t forget to get yourself clicked in the serene ambience at Doppio Coffee and Bistro.”

Closure

Shankar Meher, another customer says, “The Ambience of the Cafe is what will draw you towards itself every time you think of it. Absolutely beautiful Crafted Outdoor and Indoor Sitting. Staff Courteous, Menu innovative, Self-Ordering are some of the good initiatives. Food is also very Delicious and treats to Taste buds.”

Doppio Coffee and Bistro is a newly launched café, and you won’t find it on Zomato yet. They are in a growing phase; you cannot discover much information about it online as of now. However, the location and the atmosphere will draw crowds. I have been here twice and looking forward to visiting again and again. You can visit with your date, hang out with your friends, celebrate your special moments, or enjoy quality time with the most crucial person in your life, that is you. A company of books and coffee never goes in vain. Detach yourself from the worldly chaos. This place is therapeutic! Doppio is an Italian word that means double. I can guarantee you will have twice the fun here.
