Students of IITD can enjoy free beverages i.e. tea coffee and fruit juices on showing QR code and ID card. All the working staffs are Japanese and they are on some kind of internship over here The photo clicked was during winter vacation that's why it is closed.

Extremely friendly staff consisting of students around the same age as us... friendly conversations, free coffee, and an airy place to sit and sip. What more could a student ask for? Free drinks like coffee, tea and juices for the employees and students of IIT Delhi and not a Hotel or restaurant!

What's better than a free coffee and tea. Basically you have to be IIT Delhi student or staff to avail the service. You have to register with them with your details (career related) using their website. You can get 3 drinks daily from three available options, tea, coffee and one flavoured drink. Open the website/app, select drink and a QR code will be generated. Show it. The Japanese staff are quite good and charming. You get decent tea, coffee tasted a bit bitter to me from usual. But after all you cannot complain because it's free.

You can avail free tea, coffee and soft drinks by just showing you college ID. Black coffee one of my favorite, juice or soft drinks are too sweet for me but others like it too. You will get variety of drink here. Have fun with freebies.

Shiru cafe. 1st download from playstore then I say you something about it. Download or not then you given some information about you like your entry no. Of IITD name profession in which job you are interested etc. After your fill up then you get 2 types of drinks like 1.cold drinks (mango juice, pineapple, straberry juice, lasi, lichhi etc) 2.chae, coffee, green tea etc Then show your bar code of your drink and they scan it and show your iitd I'd card and freely get your drink. But in my case many times I drink cold drinks then after some days I fell into caugh fever after recovery of my fever now I didn't see a look to shiru cafe. It's a joke but true.......
