Imagine a restaurant where your bill is paid by someone else. Seva cafe runs on a very unique concept of ‘Service’. It is run by a modest group of volunteers who are very friendly and serve with love.
What’s the word on the city street?
At the end of your meal, your bill always reads ‘0’ but you are presented with a box to carry forward the goodwill. Whatever amount you choose to put in will be used to buy the ingredients for people who dine after you.

We volunteered at the cafe and made spinach soup, Rava sheera, sandwich, and pasta. One of us brought the guitar and one of the customers volunteered to sing, which made it a perfect evening. You must visit the café, serve and pass on the good-will offered to you by strangers.
