This much-loved brand from Delhi is now in Bangalore at the swank Phoenix Mall of Asia, creating experiences around great coffee, food and community. With its soothing colours and décor, this is a good space to step away and unwind after the bustle of shopping. Perch is open all day, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner; you can stop by for a coffee and a light meal in the in-between hours as well. They’re serious about coffee here and the menu covers the gamut from single-origin coffees sourced from Colombia, Ethiopia and Indian estates to speciality coffee drinks. The Coffee Sangria is a fabulous and refreshing offering from the coffee range.

The food is exceptionally good, whether you order small plates, sandwiches, salads or hearty mains. The Sesame Crusted Vietnamese Shrimp Rice Roll is a lovely summer starter. Perch Classics is a list that includes superb choices such as Goat Cheese Mousse on Toast, served with a beet reduction and the Roasted Garlic Gnocchi with wilted greens and burnt garlic butter. And if you are fan of Fish & Chips, you'll relish the Perch version, good quality ingredients and competent cooking combine in this classic. The deceptively simple sounding Banana Sponge with Honeycomb Ice-Cream is a delicious dessert.

The wine list is excellent, you’ll find some of the labels come at very attractive prices.
