"A table set somewhere between old Calcutta and right now — trams, tea stalls, and a kitchen that won't pick just one cuisine."
Long before City Center had this address, Calcutta had a way of eating — tram-stop tea, Chinatown woks, colonial-era kitchens borrowing from everyone who ever passed through the port. The Calcutta Canteen is that habit, set down in Durgapur.
One menu carries a Kolkata-Chinese wok station, a tandoor, an Indian curry kitchen, and a continental grill side by side — because that's how the city actually eats, not how a single-cuisine menu pretends it does.
"They served variety of food — from Chinese to continental to Indian."

— Google Review"Nice atmosphere, most aesthetic ambience, and food quality is the best."

The dining room is its own small archive — old Calcutta street scenes framed in gold against deep teal, brass-globe lights, and booths the colour of a Durga Puja evening.
