About Us
The Soul of Indian Streets, Served Fresh!
Welcome to TAPRI, where we bring you not just food, but the essence of India’s bustling streets, vibrant flavors, and timeless traditions. At the heart of our story is the humble yet iconic Tapri—India’s beloved roadside tea stall, where life happens over a cup of chai.
A Tapri isn’t just a place; it’s an experience. It’s where the rich aroma of freshly brewed, spiced chai mingles with the sound of sizzling snacks and heartfelt conversations. It’s the spot where friends gather after a long day, strangers become companions, and every sip tells a story.
We’ve captured that spirit to create a space where the warmth of a cutting chai, the spicy kick of vada pav come together to give you an authentic taste of India. Our food is crafted with a pinch of tradition, a dash of love, and a whole lot of desi flavors that transport you straight to the vibrant lanes of Mumbai, Delhi, Gujarat, and beyond.
At TAPRI, we don’t just serve street food—we serve nostalgia, memories, and the comfort of India’s most cherished street-side delights.
Chai ho ya charcha, swad ho ya yaadein—everything starts here.
