Mumbai’s favourite dessert brand, 99 Pancakes, has officially landed in Delhi-NCR with the opening of its first outlet at Baani Square, Gurgaon. Known for its playful take on international desserts, this marks a strategic step in the brand’s ongoing expansion across India.
The Gurgaon outlet stays true to 99 Pancakes' mission: making global dessert experiences accessible, premium, and affordable to Indian audiences. With a 100% vegetarian menu and a youthful, vibrant ambience, the brand caters to customers of all age groups.
To celebrate its debut in the capital region, 99 Pancakes is offering an exclusive launch deal. From June 27th to 29th, 2025, customers visiting the Gurgaon outlet can enjoy 6 Mini Pancakes and a Classic Waffle for just ₹99—an irresistible chance to sample the brand’s iconic menu.
“We are thrilled to bring 99 Pancakes to Delhi-NCR, where Gurgaon is the perfect market for us to begin this journey,” said Vikesh Shah, Founder of 99 Pancakes. “This area has a dynamic food culture with an appetite for fresh and creative offerings. Through our ₹99 launch offer, we invite the local community to come and experience our menu—from our signature mini pancakes to our popular waffles, shakes, and more.”
With this launch, the QSR brand, already popular in cities like Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Hyderabad, Bangalore, and Varanasi, continues its aggressive growth strategy, with multiple new formats and outlets planned soon across the Delhi-NCR region.
The menu at 99 Pancakes is a celebration of creativity and taste, featuring an exciting selection of:
Pancakes (mini and classic)
Waffles and Waffle Cakes
Shakes and Hot Beverages
Crepes, Macarons, and Cold Drinks
All items are made using premium ingredients and reflect a consistent innovation-first approach. The brand has previously collaborated with big names like Nutella, KitKat, Epigamia, Rage Coffee, MyFitness, and Cartoon Network, introducing special-edition flavours and desserts that keep loyal customers coming back for more.
“We have an aggressive expansion strategy for the Delhi & NCR market and will soon be opening up new outlets in different formats,” Vikesh added.
With rising demand for affordable yet gourmet desserts, 99 Pancakes is well-positioned to tap into India’s growing QSR and dessert culture. The Gurgaon store is a step forward in the brand’s pan-India vision, bringing a fresh twist to everyday indulgences.

Harajuku Tokyo Cafe has raised $2 million (₹19 crores) in its first institutional funding round, setting the stage for a bigger national expansion. The round was led by Indian Angel Network (IAN), with participation from Samved VC, LetsVenture, and venture debt fund Capitar Ventures.
The brand is attracting strong investor interest, with additional funding expected to follow. This milestone comes soon after its grand Mumbai entry at Jio World Drive, BKC, where both Harajuku Tokyo Cafe and Harajuku Bakehouse drew an overwhelming response from customers.
Founded in 2021 by Gaurav Kanwar, Harajuku Tokyo Cafe has carved a niche by bringing authentic Japanese cuisine to India in a casual dining and quick-service format. In just a few years, the brand has scaled to 7 outlets across Delhi NCR and Mumbai, crossing ₹30 crores in annual recurring revenue.
Looking ahead, the company aims to grow aggressively with a target of 90 outlets across 20 cities by 2027 and revenue projections of over ₹200 crores. To kickstart this expansion, Letters of Intent have already been signed for 15 upcoming locations in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Ludhiana, and Chandigarh.
“This funding milestone strengthens our vision of democratising Japanese cuisine in India. What began as a passion project to make Japanese food accessible has evolved into a scalable business model that resonates with India's evolving palate. With our Mumbai launch exceeding all expectations and this funding secured, we're positioned to become India's leading Japanese dining destination”, said Gaurav Kanwar, founder and CEO of Harajuku Tokyo Cafe
