Let’s just put this out there: Thanks to P, I’m officially an outgoing soul now! That means every chance I get, I’m stepping out with him. Thanks, Mr. P! Anyway, today we both want to tell you about a cosy new cafe in Chandigarh that caught our eye. Why? Well, simply because it’s located in a market that literally has no good coffee places and it serves some of the finest coffee in Chandigarh. And, the best part? It’s a welcome addition to a chain of two renowned cafes in Chandigarh, Back to Source and Chhota Banaras. Wondering which one it is? It’s Cafe Well-being in Sector 32, Chandigarh. Let’s tell you all about this cute and cosy new cafe!
Cafe Well-being Chandigarh: A New Cafe In Chandigarh
One fine evening last month, while driving home after work, the weather took a dramatic turn and it began to pour heavily. P and I felt it was too beautiful an evening to head straight home. I had heard about this new cafe opening in Sector 32 of Chandigarh. “Let’s try it out,” I suggested to P. And off we went to Sector 32D.
The cafe was nestled in one of the corner showrooms, and we parked our car conveniently right in front. There it was: a cosy, cute, and minimalist cafe. The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans hit you as soon as you stepped inside. Coffee lovers, be warned: salivation guaranteed!

Cafe Well-being Chandigarh: Minimalist Vibe For Endless Conversations
What immediately grabbed my attention at Cafe Well-being Chandigarh was the artwork on the walls. The quirky murals showcased a love for coffee dates, whether solo, with a significant other, or with friends. Honestly, it resonated deeply with P and me. The lighting was mellow, perfect for snapping some cute pictures of the artwork. Despite its cosy and small size, Cafe Well-being is well-designed. Indoor plants add a touch of freshness to the ambiance, and the comfortable seating allows you to linger all day, whether for meetings or casual hangouts with friends.
While I admired the artwork, P was busy capturing the minimalist cafe’s vibe in photos. By this time, our friends also joined in and we couldn’t wait to try all the delicious treats this cafe had to offer. Let’s give you a glimpse of what awaits you when you visit Cafe Well-being in Sector 32D, Chandigarh.

Cafe Well-being Chandigarh: Specialty Coffee Meets Good Food!
For coffee lovers, the aroma itself is enough to be excited when they enter a new cafe. Here, at Cafe Well-being, a coffee-gasm is guaranteed. Why? Because they have collaborated with Marc’s Coffees, who follow the seed-to-cup philosophy. Sourcing the best coffee beans for coffee connoisseurs across the country, Marc’s Coffees guarantees an experience to remember. The baristas at Cafe Well-being, in turn, do an impeccable job of transforming these beans into aromatic cups you won’t forget.
After carefully scanning the menu and reading all about their coffee online, I ordered a cold coffee while P stuck to cappuccino. Our friends ordered 2 cafe lattes. For nibbling, we ordered a veg club sandwich and chilli cheese toast. After placing the order, we eagerly waited to experience the magic of their specialty coffee.

What made us swoon was how amazing the hot coffees looked in those cute dark green cups. The cold coffee that was served to me looked equally inviting. These were served to us with delicious baked cookies, which didn’t have sugar, but desi khand instead. While we all were busy admiring our cuppas and taking in the mesmerising aroma of the coffee, our server brought the food too. One look, and we were totally drooling over those chilli cheese toasts!
Source: PrinkledWithout further adieu, we dug right in. And, what a delightful sip it was. I can still smell the strong aroma and taste the flavour lingering on my taste buds of the coffee as I pen this. P and our friends also loved their coffees. The cookies too were so good that we requested a few more. Our server brought the club sandwich next and to be honest, it looked a bit underwhelming. We decided not to judge it until we tried it out.

The freshness of veggies and the kick of chilli just elevated the taste to another level. The toasts went perfectly well with our coffees and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Sadly, the club sandwich didn’t live up to the high bar set by the coffee and toasts. It was okay, but not as impressive as the other dishes. We provided this feedback to the server, who graciously accepted it and promised a better experience next time.
As we finished our nibbles and coffee, the server surprised us with a complimentary slice of freshly baked pineapple cake.This was a highlight! Made with desi khand, it was a guilt-free indulgence, especially for my friend who was on a diet. We devoured the slice, loving the balance between sweetness, freshness, and the slight tartness of the pineapple.

While the total for four of us (around ₹1200-1400) is reasonable by Chandigarh standards, it might be a bit steep for students. Our evening ended on a sweet note and we left Cafe Well-being Chandigarh with hopes of returning again soon.
Prinkled’s Parting Thoughts:
It is a cute new cafe in Chandigarh, where coffee lovers can go for a delicious cuppa and others can drop by for guilt-free desserts. The food is delicious and compliments their specialty coffee. All in all, we had a great time, and while the cafe is small and has a few kinks to fix, we believe it’ll thrive in no time!
