Brownies at 6 a.m. in T2? That’s Theobroma.
Theobroma sits airside in Terminal 2 at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, an easy stop if your flight departs from the main international pier. It’s a grab-and-go style counter, not a sit-down cafe, so plan on taking everything back to your gate in T2 rather than lingering here.
Pricing runs mid-range for an Indian airport: expect around ₹120–₹180 for a brownie, ₹180–₹250 for most pastries, and ₹150–₹250 for hot coffee. Compared with the big international coffee chains in T2, you usually save ₹30–₹50 per item while getting something that tastes more like a city bakery than a generic airport stand.
The signatures are the brownies and dense chocolate cakes. The classic Theobroma brownie sits in the ₹150 bracket and is rich enough to split if you’re catching a long-haul out of T2. If you want something less heavy before an 8–10 hour flight, the pound cakes and tea cakes (often around ₹130–₹160 per slice) land lighter but still feel like dessert.
Savories show up too: you often see veg puffs, croissants, and sandwiches in the ₹150–₹280 range. These work if you skipped the meal on a 90-minute domestic hop into Terminal 2 and just need something basic before your next boarding call. Don’t count on everything being hot; some items sit in the display case and come out at room temperature.
Coffee and cold drinks round it out. A standard cappuccino usually hits ₹180–₹220, while bottled juices and soft drinks fall in the ₹60–₹120 range. If your departure board in T2 shows boarding in 25 minutes or more, you have enough time to grab a drink and a brownie here and still walk back to most gates without rushing.
Tip: queues spike at Theobroma when wide-bodies to Europe depart from T2 around late night; if your flight leaves between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., swing by at least 20–25 minutes before boarding starts.
