Meraki Cafe is one of Surat's most recommended coffee spots, with many people calling its coffee the best in the city and praising its flat white and pour over. Several commenters also find it a good place to work, with a chill vibe and light music, though two diners say it has become so busy that you can lose your table or struggle to be productive, and one commenter advises avoiding it because the work crowd makes it noisy for relaxing. One commenter finds the coffee mediocre despite liking the vibe, and one notes the Vesu branch is quieter while another wishes it were more affordable.

• RecommendsSays Meraki serves the best coffee in Surat and stands out from other places.
• CaveatAvoid because people come to work there, so it's noisy and not good for chilling.

Pakiki is one of Surat's most-recommended cafes, with many people praising its coffee, from flat whites to cold brew, and one commenter calling it the best coffee in town. Several also name it a top spot for working with a laptop, and it is suggested for quiet cafe visits. It has two outlets, one at Piplod (the one on this map) and one further out on Dumas Road, and people mention both. The main caveat is price: one frequent visitor says it is pricey and portions are not filling, so go for the coffee and vibe rather than value, and another diner finds the burnt garlic rice good but not worth what it costs, though others defend the pricing and point to more filling, budget-friendly menu items.

• RecommendsDelighted by the iced matcha and Snow Cap cold brew; praises clean white interior, seating options, and bar seating for quick work.
• MixedSays the burnt garlic rice tastes good but at its price does not feel worth the money.
