Dolly’s Tea Shop in Dakshinapan Shopping Centre

The typical Bengali adda (gathering) is incomplete without a brewing cup of tea. So you would be finding a tea stall in every nook and corner of the city. But for those who wish to enjoy a cup of authentic Darjeeling tea, drive down to Dolly’s Tea Shop at the Dakshinapan Shopping Complex in Dhakuria. Dolly’s is a 20 year old shop.

With its thatched roofshades, low-lying, cushioned cane furniture and lots of greenery, Dolly’s exudes a lot of warmth, attracting shoppers and college-goers in hordes. Handmade paper lanterns light up the circular tables. Infused with the personal touch, the shop is spread over two floors with a huge courtyard in the center.Dolly, the owner of this tea shop, is herself available at most evenings greeting the guests. She has 40 years of experience as a tea taster.
