Natraj Restaurants

We’ve been running things at building 1004 on the main road in Shukrawar Peth for a while now. Being right across from the Swargate bus stand means things are always moving and it never really gets quiet around here. It gets quite loud and crowded outside, especially in the early mornings when all the travelers are trying to catch their buses. Most of our regulars are just people passing through or folks who work in this part of Pune and need a quick break during the day. We keep the inside of the place pretty straightforward and basic. It is definitely not a fancy setup with decorations or anything like that. The floor needs sweeping a lot because of all the dust that comes in from the street traffic, but we try our best to keep it tidy. Sometimes it feels a little chaotic when several buses arrive at the same time and everyone rushes in at once to get a seat. The staff has been with us for a long time and they know the routine well. We don't have any of those modern fancy lights, just some old chairs and fans that we have to keep running at full speed during the summer months. It is more of a family-style place where you just come in, get your meal, and then go about your day. We see hundreds of different faces every week. Students, office workers, and families with big suitcases are always coming through.
