Chhetri

This place is located right on New Cantt Road, not too far from the Salawala Bridge. Most people in this part of Dehradun know the area well because it’s a main way to get around. We’ve been operating under the name Chhetri for years now. It started out quite small and it hasn’t really changed that much in terms of how we do things. We’re just a local business that serves the people living around Salawala and the Cantt area. The building itself is simple and we don’t spend much time worrying about decorations or making it look like a big city showroom. We’re more focused on just getting the daily work done. You’ll usually find one of us sitting near the entrance, and there’s always someone stopping by for a chat or to ask about something. The traffic on New Cantt Road is almost always moving, so there is a constant hum of scooters and cars outside our door. It gets a bit dusty sometimes because of the road, but we try to keep the place tidy enough. We aren't trying to be the biggest name in town. We just want to be a reliable spot where the neighbors can come. It’s a family-run kind of vibe here, nothing too formal. We know the milkman, the guy at the tea stall nearby, and most of the regulars. That’s just how it is at Chhetri. We open early and close when the sun goes down.
