Our Journey
Whoever said all coffee tastes alike clearly hasn’t tried a cup from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (CBTL) at Lake City Business Bay. If you haven’t made a trip there yet, let me fill you in.
The CBTL building located in Business Bay, Lake City is next to a park and is incredibly aesthetic. Surrounded by lush greenery and vibrant plants, I bet you won’t be able to stop admiring its artsy look. Whether you’re sipping a latte or enjoying a book, the refreshing ambiance makes every visit a breath of fresh air.
CBTL isn’t just another coffee shop; it’s a legacy served in a cup. Their love for coffee began way back in 1963, and today, CBTL stands as a prominent family-run coffee and tea chain in more than 40 countries. In Lahore, they’re creating quite a buzz with 12+ outlets, including the newest hotspot in Lake City.
Quality is where CBTL truly shines. They go the extra mile by sourcing the top 1% of Arabica beans—some of the best available—from the finest coffee-growing regions around the globe. And when it comes to tea, they get it straight from private, family-owned estates, ensuring every sip is as premium as it gets. That’s why I consider it "the place" for coffee enthusiasts—because here, it’s not just about serving coffee; it’s about crafting an unforgettable experience.
Okay, let’s speak facts—not all coffee is created equal. Some American coffee chains (not naming names) can be straight-up bitter as per Pakistani taste, but CBTL is different. It is different and it also hits differently! The flavors are smooth, rich, and just energy packed.
I won’t lie—good coffee really isn’t cheap (like, seriously). Those fancy coffee places are lowkey hitting our wallets hard, and CBTL is totally one of them. A regular-sized cup kicks off at Rs. 930 (yep, you read that correctly—way too pricey for most people I know). Whether you’re going for the Hot Caramel Latte or the Hot Vanilla Latte, you’re looking at almost a thousand bucks per cup. Ouch, right? But, honestly, it’s worth it.
Loving good coffee can definitely take a toll on your budget—no joke! If you're planning a visit, just think of it as spending about the same as a cute Pakistani suit. If the price is a dealbreaker for you, consider this your heads-up!
This place is definitely worth a visit! The cozy atmosphere, authentic coffee, and the pleasure of enjoying a well-made cup make it a unique experience. The Business Bay branch is beautiful, spacious, and extremely aesthetic. If you want a good all-rounder coffee spot, this is the place to go!
