Loved the ambience of the place - from the seating to lighting and soft music. Of the food that I tried, I loved their Arabic Shawarma the best and the ginger fizz. The butter chicken pasta was decent too while the white sauce pasta (forget the name of the dish) was average and a little bland for my taste. The cookie bun was what I visited the cafe for and was totally worth the trip. Tried the red velvet and the biscoff variants. Loved the biscoff cookie bun. It was perfectly crunchy outside and soft inside. We got their ghee cake as a gift for friends they loved the softness and flavour of the cake.

Went to the cafe one evening to pick up my pre-ordered salted caramel butterscotch cake. My first visit. Cool ambience. Delicious cake.

The buns of this place is really amazing also the cheese burgers and chicken sausage was so tasty. Passion fruit lemonade was really cool and the most attractive thing was the bottles. The interiors of this place is very nice and gives a good.
Highly recommended 👍

The molten caramel was below average but the chicken steak was worth to try . A perfect keto diet and well cooked chicken

On Feb 17th, I visited zam zam bun hut with my family that included my 4 year kid as well. As she was very fond of having hot chocolate coffee, we ordered one. When she was having the last sip, she took something from her mouth. It was a large horse fly crisply burnt!
We called the manager and he was apologising profusely and they even tried to compensate by giving complimentary bun and coffee.While going home we were really scared whether she'll have food poisoning.Avoid this place at all cost.

One of the most happening cafe in Trivandrum. I’ve been here quite a lot of times and have tried every single pastry. But they keep on adding new flavors in their menu. Cold Coffee is my favorite pick from their menu. I will recommend this place anytime for pastries and cakes and it is reasonable as well.

An average eaterie to jote
Prices are comparatively lower but for who love a non veg type this one is a typical choice to have a taste of..
Only non veg items are predominant and can expect sizable crowds on weekends..

I am really sad to post this review. You should totally take down the burgers from your menu because I brought my cousins and friends to this cafe to taste the burger and it was unavailable. This has happened many other times. The service is also very poor as it takes a lot of time .when we arrived there weren't many customers but it still took more than half an hour to serve an Ice tea and morjito. this place used to be my favourite once but now the the service is very poor.very disappointed.

I have not tried anything else here except for this beauty they make. The now famous cookie bun. For 40/- it is a real melt n the mouth bun with a hard crust and a soft filling. I even get it packed on my trips to Trivandrum.Next time will definitely go back to try other dishes.

Limited menu and from within menu most items are not available.
Very cramped seating. Not really a dine in.
Slow service.
However...what we ordered (chicken burger, club sandwich) was very good.
