The idea to include a Croiwich on their menu stemmed out of pure boredom for Saigopal Medepalli and Deepika Gowda, co-founders of Thane-based Bean Theory Coffee. “We were bored of eating a regular sandwich and a regular butter croissant. At the same time, we did not want to make those viral chocolate oozing lemon-squeezed croissants. It started with cheese and pesto, and then evolved into a full-blown sandwich,” shares Saigopal, one half of the duo that started the café in January 2020, that used to only serve coffee initially.
