Back to Patna

Boring Road is one of Patna’s busiest and most youthful areas, named after a nineteenth-century official rather than anything dull. It is lined with coaching institutes, colleges, shops, cafés and restaurants, and it is crowded with students and young professionals from morning until late at night. For Myra members, Boring Road is the most common place in Patna for a first coffee, thanks to its wide choice of cafés and central location. Introductions here often include people from Patliputra, SK Puri, Rajapur, Anandpuri and Kidwaipuri, depending on your distance limit. Many members here are focused on studies or careers, so short, simple meetings fit their schedules best. The cafés stay busy into the evening, which makes them comfortable and public for a first meeting. If you prefer a quieter setting, the residential lanes of SK Puri nearby have calmer cafés and parks. Weekend mornings are the calmest time to meet, when the coaching rush has eased and the cafés serve breakfast to a relaxed crowd. The road is named after a British official of the colonial era, and the old Boring Road crossing is still the point everyone uses for directions. Many of Patna’s best-known coaching institutes for engineering and medical entrance examinations started in the lanes around it, so the area is full of hostels, libraries and photocopy shops. In the late evening, the Boring Canal Road side fills with students heading to litti chokha stalls after classes, and the conversations at those stalls are often about results, rankings and plans to study in Delhi or Kota. Nearby, the Anandpuri and SK Puri residential colonies have tree-lined lanes and small parks that feel worlds away from the bustle. On Sunday mornings, joggers and walkers take over the quiet roads before the shops open.
