“These 5 years at Justbe Resto Café have been a roller coaster for me and the entire team. Starting as India’s first whole-food plant-based restaurant; my mission has always been to establish a relationship with nature’s food that has the ability to nurture, heal and reconnect with our instincts to reach optimum health by building a support system to create a safer world for animals and the environment, through a sustainable lifestyle. The new menu at Justbe is a reintroduction of cuisines across the world but in their modern Justbe avatar, retaining our signature healthy character. Curated to endeavor and tantalise palates with our take on global comfort food using natural, fresh and local ingredients with a fusion of Indian cooking.”

She further added, “At Justbe Resto Café, we would like to educate and inspire people to learn the art of eating food that is designed for our body by nature. We strive to build a future where whole-plant based food is universally eaten, respected, and served with love and compassion.”

Apart from the wholesome food that the café offers and is renowned for, the ambience and its interiors make you feel like it’s a homecoming. A cozy yet spacious setup, the café is divided into sections – Living Room, Veranda, Dining Room, Courtyard, Den, and Studio. The food is meant to send the message of “ghar ka khaana”, and the emotions associated with it. Additionally, the other areas in the café are meant to complement the ideology of the food.

Justbe Resto Café and Wellness Centre is built in a 90 year old heritage building that initially was an “Outreach Library” and a Community Centre later on.
