Ad 91 - The Art Cafe in Bidhannagar offers more than just a casual spot to grab a coffee — it’s a creative hub where art and community meet. Situated in AD Block, this café is best suited for those who want to dive into hands-on artistic activities while enjoying a quiet, cozy atmosphere away from Kolkata’s usual hustle.

The space is thoughtfully arranged to encourage creativity, with light-filled corners where kids and adults alike can explore crafts like painting, soap making, and bracelet crafting. The café doubles as a mini gallery, displaying visitors’ artwork on its walls, which adds a personal and ever-changing touch to the ambiance. It’s not only a place to make art but also to celebrate it, with workshops and events that welcome families and groups — many choose it for kid-friendly birthday parties and weekend creative outings.

Food here leans vegetarian and pairs nicely with the laid-back vibe. Expect a straightforward menu with comforting beverages like chai and some snack options to fuel your creative sessions. The service tends to be warm and attentive, making the experience feel genuine rather than rushed or commercialized. Some visitors have found certain dishes or drinks just average, but the overall combination of good food and the immersive artistic environment balances it out well.

If you’re a local looking to spend a relaxed afternoon with friends or family, especially if you have kids who enjoy making things, AD 91 fits the bill. Early weekends or weekday afternoons might be ideal times, when the crowd is lighter and you can fully engage with the workshops or just quietly work on your own projects. The setting is casual but clearly aimed at nurturing a community of art lovers rather than serving as a traditional café or restaurant.

The space is beautifully decorated. Must visit for art lovers. You can get a chance to indulge in creativity and crafts. My kid created beautiful craft, soap making and paintings there. Your art will be put up on the wall for display.. they have amazing workshops for kids as well. I celebrated the birthday of my child there. Super liked the courtesy of the staff and the owner. Do order the chai platter and kabab platter.

Where colours come alive and creativity is always on the menu. Tucked away from the city buzz, AD-91 The Art Café is a cozy haven for all things artsy — whether you're into pottery or painting, there's always something to get your hands into. And when you’re done creating? Refuel with their all-vegetarian menu that’s just as thoughtfully crafted. A space where food meets imagination — and every visit leaves you a little more inspired. There is a dedicated art menu where you can try things like pottery with as low as ₹350 only. Apart from this there are things like canvas painting, pour art, mandala making, bracelet making & much more. Shisha is also available in a different section at this cafe.

Café AD91 is honestly one of the most refreshing spots I’ve visited in a while. The ambiance is warm, cozy, and perfect whether you’re catching up with friends or getting some quiet work done. The staff is genuinely welcoming and attentive, which makes the whole experience even better. Overall, Café AD91 strikes the perfect balance between good vibes, great service, and delicious food. Definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable hangout with consistently great taste.

Great art experience on the weekend with my partner. The prices on the Art Menu are very affordable. There was a Bday party going on but they were accommodating. I had sautéed mushrooms which were very average and the peach ice tea was too sweet. The smores platter was very tasty Nd made it up. Will visit again soon for other art activities.
