Vaishali, Fergusson College Road

If you are a South Indian foodie, Vaishali is your vegetarian paradise. Be prepared to stand in line because you are definitely not getting a table quickly.

This legendary baker met with an unfortunate accident in 2010 but has bounced back even better since then. It is the second oldest German Bakery in the country and one of the most popular cafes in Pune. Sunday brunch with your friends is a must at this popular spot. Get spoilt for choice with a range of delectable pasta, coffees, cakes, bun maska, paninis, and more. 

Fat Cats Cafe, Wanowrie

Fat Cats Café was envisioned by the owner when she was just a child aged 8. The idea behind the name is a satiated fat cat who has committed gluttony and chosen to curl up and get cosy. This café has brought her vision to life in its most accurate form. Take a break from the hustle and bustle, head to this peaceful area with your friends and flatmates, and enjoy some comfort food. 

The French Window Patisserie, Koregaon

If you haven’t been to Paris, at least try and get a feel of it in your very own city. The aroma of freshly baked croissants and bagels will mesmerize you and make you fall in love with the Parisian vibe of the place. Be it a breakfast date or brunch with the crew; this place won’t disappoint; enjoy their five-course meal under a canopy of trees.

Shizusan, Viman Nagar

Those who stay at our Viman Nagar Hostels are at an advantage because of their proximity to Shizusan, which is another exceptional place for dinner in Pune. Fill up your bellies with dimsums, sushi, braised pork belly, and everything oriental at this Asian bistro. If you are one to experiment, do have their Green-Tea Infused Tiramisu. 

Mahlzeit, Koregaon Park

The restaurant name and most dishes will be tough to pronounce, but the taste and comfort offered by these generous portions will fill your heart (and stomach). One of the few restaurants in the city serving German food, this café is a definite must-try with your gang. Go slow on the number of dishes you order because the portion sizes are enormous. Must tries here are Bratwurst, Bratkartoffel Döner Kebab, Currywurst and Bratkartoffeln. 

Dario’s, Koregaon Park

For a mouth-watering Italian gastronomical experience, Dario’s is a must-visit. This quaint, cosy little joint serves the most authentic and delicious Tortellini with Spinach and Ricotta, Penne Aglio Burro Formaggio, Gnocchi with Sage Butter, and Etnea Pizza.
