10 Famous Food Places We Need In Nagpur Right Now!

Ask a Nagpuri what he wants to eat for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, chances are they would either say Tarri Poha or Saoji! Any Best Place To Eat In Nagpur list will have 5 Saoji places, Barbecue, Gokul Vrindavan, etc. Lack of exposure to other cuisines, spicy palates, love for Nagpuri food and low cosmo crowd allowed Tapri and Saoji to rule the food scene. It still does, but then the winds of change are already here. People are heading to the new joints, hopping from continental to pan-Asian to Mexican to Lebanese!

But Nagpur is a long way from being a food capital like say Delhi, Mumbai or even the old rival Pune. We do see a few biggies from these cities come into Best Place to Eat in Nagpur, but it’s still too less. Now that we have a thriving Metro project, growth along the MIHAN sector, a small IT hub springing into action and given the high spending capacity of the locals, it’s high time we get into the big league. The positive political signs also make for a healthy environment of growth. We already have Maroosh, Tapri, Barbecue Nation, Mainland China, etc. but we definitely need more.

So here is a look at some few more biggies that we need in Nagpur soon –

1. McDonalds –

If there was one place we all have wished for, plead for and even begged for is McD. Our friends from other cities still laugh when we say there’s no Mcd in Nagpur. KFC came last year and had a huge queue so if McD comes to Nagpur they wont regret it. It might work as their biggest advertisement yet because there would be a 2km queue for sure!

2. Social Offline –

Given the number of check-ins that Nagpuri’s do at Socials in Hauz Khaas, Churchstreet, Colaba, it’s high time they come here. We already have 2-3 copycats thriving, but we need an original one soon. They already have 15 outlets so let 16 be the lucky number for Nagpur. Social’s Civil Lines would sound nice!

3. Paradise –

No matter how much we rave about the biryanis from Babus, MLC, Mominpura, etc being in Best Place To Eat In Nagpur, we still don’t have a proper Hyderabadi biryani place in the city. Paradise might not have the best biryani now, but they are the biggest ones for sure. And Paradise biryani on a bad day would still be better than any biryani in Nagpur.

4. Farzi Café –

Creating a name in the cluttered Delhi food scene is a huge task. And if you manage to do that so soon, you have got to be good at what you do! So, after the hype around Socials had settled, people started moving to Farzi. The twisted offerings, over the top showmanship with the food and the ever so popular spirits, made this one ‘The’ place to be. They have already moved on to Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore, so Nagpur seems the next thing to do. Would surely top the list Best Place To Eat In Nagpur

5. Theobroma –

Think of brownies and Theo’s pops up into the head. Another Parsi food joint that has become a legend in the baking and café scene. Although they haven’t gone outside Mumbai yet, Nagpur can always be the first one. People travelling from Mumbai are always threatened to carry this back. So even a small joint with just the brownies would do too.

6. Blue Frog –

One thing we constantly crib about in Nagpur is how we don’t have any good clubs to hang out on weekends. Blue Frog did that for Mumbai and then moved to Pune and Delhi. Live shows, dance nights, good food and more music – exactly what we need in Nagpur. Also, it might make the other big clubs follow soon too.

7. Smoke House Deli –

Fine dine took another meaning when this places opened shop. Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi and Kolkatta have had a taste of it already. Their menu is super and the taste is hard hitting. The white interiors, well-lit place and the easy ambiance have become a signature of this place. The Nagpuri palate might take a while to adjust but then worth a try.

8. Bar Stock Exchange –

After Social and Farzi, this is the most sought after place when Nagpuri’s travel out. A sort of drinking heaven that has gained followers with its dynamic pricing routine. People bring their sauve investor instincts on board to get the drinks here. Now that they have started foraying into other cities by converting the old places, I am sure we can lend a Nagpuri pub for the cause.

So I have clubbed all 3 because if even one of them comes to Nagpur, the other 2 shall follow. We just need a brewery to come into town. Most of us travel to Bangalore and rave about the brews and then make plans of opening one in Nagpur.

10. Monkey Bar / Fatty Bao –

Chef Manu Chandra is a master when it comes to setting up a food scene. Nagpur surely needs his magic touch to take us to the next level. Once he sets foot here, the other biggies won’t be far behind. Any of this outlets would do for now.

I say we start a petition online to bring all these to Nagpur right away! We are the foodies, we love our drink and we do go out a lot. And for sure our old humble Saoji won’t mind if we spend a little time at these spots too.

And inside news is that a few of these are already on the way, some just a month away too..sshhh..
