The tea house interior

OUR HOUSE

The tea house,
revived.

Before coffee chains, the subcontinent argued, wrote and fell in love in tea houses. We opened Chaayé Khana to give that room back to Islamabad — seventy blends, warm floors, no hurry.

Bookshelves

SHELVES FIRST

Take a book to your table.

Every room is lined with shelves — novels, poetry, battered paperbacks donated by regulars. Borrow anything with your pot. Return it whenever. The honour system has not failed us yet.

LIVE NIGHTS

Fridays sound better here.

Acoustic sets every Friday and Saturday from nine. Ghazals some weeks, indie the others. No cover charge — just keep your karak topped up and your applause honest.

VISIT

Three rooms, one ritual.

F-6 Markaz

School Road, Islamabad — the original room.

F-11 Markaz

The quiet one. Best shelves, morning light.

Lahore

M.M. Alam Road — louder, later, very Lahore.

THE LONG TABLE

Book it, or just ask us anything.

Private tastings, the long table, a shelf donation, a ghazal request — write and a human answers within the day.
