A very different cafe, pleasant and delicious breakfast all in one. .. the artwork was something we hardly see these days so overall it was a good experience

This is the best place in Karachi if, youre a student, freelancer, want to conduct a business meeting or dating someone. The ambiance is serene. Food is great. Service is great. Ive always enjoyed my visit to T2F thoroughly, especially the events that happen at Faraar Gallery.

Its Karachis top place for a curious mind. Always smth interesting going on there.

I was at first time and found very educational atmosphere, amaze still places are available for the decent educated persons specially for youth

This is a nice place to work. The environment and food is also great. I recommend it for business discussion.

Super place and super people running the place. Cool environment promoting art and our rich culture. We must support these efforts which are made to society a better place to live in.

Nice place , peaceful but taste and verity of food is average , coffee was amazing basically one can order coffees and do there online work silently ..

An amazing public space. Read, order food, or hold a small event or a speaking session. All is done here. Great for the new people who want to showcase their work

A very beautiful and wonderful place for me in my family home and I was just a few weeks away and had been a very busy man in my own home and had a very good feeling about the way i was just a few years old when my parents died in the hospital for the last few days of their lives in a hospital where i could be in the same boat with a few years of training and my own life would not go well for my children or children who are not so sure about this one of your patients and their patients are still very much concerned with what we do and how much I can own and how to manage it in my life would is the best friend and I have

One of its kind of platform for everyone in one way or another. A stage for very diverse kind of arts and stuff. You can attend various workshops, movie screenings and open mic nights under one roof. Cafeteria is also very good and reasonable.Pro tip: Like their page in FB and get all updates of events, especially the free one.

Not your average Cafe!! Pretty nice place to work or study or just hangout.

Mind blowing place for public gathering meetings social cultural art related..

Good programs. Small but nice

Its was wonderful visiting T2F . A calm place to sit , study or to have discussion . Intellectual , interactive and informative Event and social gathering often happen at T2F . A good place to Visit .

Every city of Pakistan needs T2F space. They should think of its chain of spots.

Really awesome place when you get tired just go there and make yourself relaxed and also work there in comfort zone

An amazing centre for arts and activism, t2f offers a wide range of activities, backed up by decent Coffee and snacks.Food prices are a tad high, but your enjoyment helps ensure that this wonderful community resource stays open.The artwork on the walls and the murals greeting you in the stairwell, are also a feast for the eyes.

Its a nice place to go to

Such a nice place, to spend Quality time ️

The ambience and the mood depends which event you are attending we were in a JAM PARTY reviving the Hip Hop culture so it was hell of a fun but still this place needs some better AC system. Overall this place is okay

T2F is one of best open spaces you will find in Pakistan that promotes free speech and creative thinking. From book launches and tabla classes to political discussions and casual music, there is something for everyone.

A nice place for working or just hanging out with friends. Lots of nice talks/events happening often in the events space downstairs. And they have a good books collection too. The coffees not so good, which, for me, is a deal breaker!

The sweetest cafe. You can sit and study. Its a wonderful quite place filled with people of great imaginations and thoughts.

Best place for events, very cheap, but capacity is around for 60 to 70 persons only.

Great community space for events and social interaction. There is also a small library and art gallery and of course the cafe upstairs. Check out the balconey, always something happening there, besides the smoking.

Miss sabeen! And awaitng the events restartimg after the covid lockdown

A good place to sit and work alongwith have a relaxing time. Water, Coffee, tea, sandwiches and pasta dishes are good. Price is slightly on the steep end. But you can sit and hang around with friends and or either work without ordering anything. That is a unique point about this place. It is communal and welcomes everyone. The choice of English songs playlists is also selective and adds a dash of class to the place.Theres an art gallery to cater to your senses and books and papers would have one browsing through the literature or news.Theres a lot of art stuff for sale as well I clouding Street wear, mugs, plants, etc,. Over all it is a conducive and classy place for people to hang out.P.S. They often arrange music events and discussion programmes so if youre interested you can go for those too.

Its one of the main liberal and progressive collective spaces in Karachi. Very cheap coffee - you must place a Rs.100 order every hour if you intend to sit longer. Smoking is allowed in the balcony.Its usually crowded and not quiet, so I wouldnt recommend it if you need peace. Maybe go in the earlier hours for that?

One of the innovative cafe.I have been many times and always found it worth time spending place where you can meet and interact with others as well foreigners besides of your education and study.

Best platform for new talent

Such an artistic Place

Great innovation space ️

An excellent place to meet friends and brainstorm ideas. A must visit if you need peace and wanna work on some creative ideas.

Good place to sit and discuss and share ideas.But there should be time limit.it cos 100rs if you sit for 10 min or 2 hours.tea there cost you 100 rs which is exclusive of the sitting fee (100rs).wifi is free there.. first time location is lil bit difficult to find.carem and Uber default pik up point is there.

Cool place with cool people. Cool events taking place all the time and the staff is cooperative and the food is good too.

Peaceful place for small group study and of course a cup of tea or coffee.

They opened a pack of Doritos and served it as nachos and cheese. and by cheese they mean sour cream. please dont eat here

Such a artistic place,If you love art.Must visit

Great place for small get togethers, family friendly, has board games, items are good especially desserts and chillers. Sometimes host great open mic nights

Amazing place

Its a great place for the artist commune of Karachi. A place like noother in Karachi.

The worst experience I have ever had in my life, we have been to khumariayaan show on Friday. The organiser lady showed complete disrespect, I think there shouldnt be biasnes on bases of economic class that she made me feel pertinently. I asked some question as show SHOULD BE start by 0730 but then they started registration at 0730 and then after registering they send us back outside to wait and when I asked she rolled her eyes and didnt like to answer. After doing all they, let us in at0840, like shouting about show stamp on your hand, I showed that then, she rudely said get in this room, then she treated everyone who were in the room with respect like those who were sitting on the floor she asked if there is no problem. Thankyou T2F for showing the class biassed. This was terrific experience and promotion of posh culture. I have been here for four times in my life and the atmosphere literally felt us no more than I am missing something. And then you talk anotut mental health.

A great and peaceful place for creative peoples.

The atmosphere is very cozy and you can have a good conversation over a cup of coffee. You can work there as long as you order something from the cafe. There are board games and other fun stuff you can do when you are there. There also are events and lectures hosted downstairs which are sometimes interesting!

Amazing place silent mahool

Such a cozy place to spend time.

A best place for brainstorming

Lovely place for events and gigs. I like the decor however seating capacity may be limited and not allowing people to pre-book may ensure crowds but can be a hassle for working people. The food is alright. They close at about 10 pm making this an afternoon/evening place to chill.

Nifty little place. They need to expand and have a chill out scene at the ground floor as well.

Good to socialise

Good place to chill and have a snack or even proper breakfast

Good place for intellectual discussions. Always something interesting happening there.

A fun place that accomodates everyone and is a great place to socialise

With respect to the cafe only, the prices are too high for what can only be described as canteen food. Either the menu should offer better priced items, or quality & presentation should be improved to justify current prices.

Ok

Love this place, best place to have a sitting and intellectual chit chat.

Ummm hard to find and then hard to leave this place. A unique experience with pleasant surprise coming to this place.Its not a simple coffee shop that just sell coffees its an idea factory. Vèry hard to explain unless and until being visited. The staff is very friendly and the coffee is also fine.

Excellent place

A quality place to have literary events.

Great place. No noise. Loved the atmosphere and paintings on the wall.

Good

Qawwali nights at T2f are always amazing. Coupled with great coffee options. A great place to forget the worries of your day

Always an amazing place to hang-out. Miss you Sabeen!

Amazing neighborhood project by Peace Niche - with art gallery and cafe it is the modern Poets corner of Karachi. Events there always intellectual and stimulating even if you disagree. We need more of these in out city of Karachi.

The best possible place for an artist. A creative and free space where one can put up shows, exhibitions, classes and so much more. These guys will support you if they believe you are committed.

One of the best place i have ever visited. Its a cafe with slow music and pretty awesome environment. You can work here quietly. Play Chess, Guitar, and other board games for free.

Best place for creative freelancers to hang out. Have meetings, Discussions , brainstorm sessions, jam sessions, play board games or just do your assignments.Free WiFi and nobody will ask you to leave. Its not a restaurant, its a space dedicated for artist and creative beings.For coffee lovers , t2f is perfection.

This is the place which contributes to the universe, without asking anything in return. The motive of the founder was unique and interesting. Id like to say that you can kill a person but you cant kill an idea!!Visit this place and youll feel like you somehow belongs to this place.Pakistan paindabad!!

It is also known as TDF ghar, i guess

The life is with “ sabeen”

Such a cool place! For all creative people, this is your place in Karachi.

A good place to hang out.. but not for everyones taste. The ambience and the food targets a specific group, usually a literary society.

Definitely the best internet cafe in karachi with many art/music classes and shows. They have my favourite brownie as well

I was there for a short film screening, the place was great, they also have a nice cafeteria upstairs and specially there was a huge space for car parking.

A good initiative for the young crowd to hangout, work in a creative atmosphere, hold meetings and enjoy a dash of art and local craftsmanship. The venue hosts regular seminars, standup routines, motivational talks, documentary screenings and music nights.

Wow.. such an amazing place for artists to show there skills

I loved the place it has a unique sense of silence and peace Ambiance is so good for official decisions or any corporate meet ups I was there for interviewing and the staff was cooperative

If you have nothing to do in the evening and dont want have any place to go check T2F their is something bound to be happening their. Talks or discussions, exhibitions or performances. Their some activity for kids every Sunday too. Their is a conference room that you can hire for meetings or if nothing just call. Your friends sit in the dining hall play chess or scrabble or just quitely read by yourself with snacks (good menu) and coffee. Its got a calming energy. And you never know you might meet people you want to be friends with.

Relaxation to be here.

Place was good but food was 4/10

Its a very nice place to sit and spend a longer time. You would mostly find students but cafe has good food to offer as well.

A great hideout. One of the best places in Karachi to just sit and take in, or get some work done and grab a bite. More to it than a short review can suggest - visit their website for more information, and to see whats going on (lots of events to attend).

A lively place for relaxing your mind with diverse cultural and intellectual activities. Its small cafe serves good healthy food. Good hangout place.

Awesome place for Chit chat, reading and discussion. Performance/conference halls, sitting place not very comfortable, limited menu. Hunter beef club sandwich is recommended.

Great classy ambience, cafe is a bit expensive but the calm environment worth a visit.

Post modern, contemporary setting with Pakistani cultural heritage thrown into the mix. Makes for an interesting place to just visit, sit, relax, read, eat a hot snack or even with.Also organises weekly social events like open mic night, best for young enthusiasts looking for social activity.

Had been there for a LOL walay show. Loved the place and the way its been set up and maintained is impressive

Cosy. Comfortable. And quiet yet happening olace. First visit was totally satisfactory. Definitely going back soon!!

Its a good place to have your Hi Tea and snacks with peaceful environment like your home with so much art activities like msuic , painting , poetry and open mic sessions on every friday for underground and famous bands.

A very niche place. Nice numb atmosphere. Felt very comfortable.

This is an excellent place and a unique one at that;

Very noisy. But the calligraphy class was very nice. Next time, plz dont allow late comers; it spoils the flow of the group.

Very good platform to meet new people, artists, writers. Environment is very suitable.

Its a great place to just hang out, order tea or coffee or work if you want to!

Nice and owsome place for meeting
