There’s a massive opportunity to create inspiring “third spaces” for the new India. I’ve spoken to countless patrons who describe stories of how they started their start-up from a Third Wave Coffee location. It’s a joy to hear how people literally use Third Wave as a starting point for new journeys in their lives.

Co-founder, Third Wave Coffee

Coming from a family that has been in hospitality for six decades, running sweet shops and restaurants, I knew the importance of delighting customers very early on. Between our strong customer relationships and high-quality product we’re able to make an impact in communities through our offering. This has become my passion.

With growing disposable income in our country, people are eager to mingle and have beautiful everyday experiences. This was the motivation behind Third Wave; to bring great local coffee and food together with architectural spaces that inspire, to create uplift in one space and in a way that India had never seen before.
