DYU Art Cafe, Koramangala
As you enter, you are welcomed by walls adorned with artwork by local and foreign artists, making it a wonderful backdrop for your Instagram picture. Then walk into a spacious courtyard with inviting nooks, a shelf full of books, and a top floor with little box windows facing out onto the street. When it rains, the cafe is at its prettiest; and don't forget to enjoy a hot chocolate here.
