First Coffee, India’s premier grab-and-go specialty coffee brand, is excited to announce its expansion to Chandigarh, bringing a one-of-a-kind coffee experience to the heart of Punjab and Haryana. This marks the brand’s second city launch, following the success of its Delhi-NCR outlets, which include three thriving locations with more on the way.
Known for its 100% Arabica coffee with an impressive SCA score of 91, First Coffee is the only Indian brand offering such high-quality specialty coffee. Our mission is to make premium coffee accessible, delivering an exceptional experience while providing great value.
Since its debut in 2024, First Coffee has captured the attention of coffee enthusiasts with its unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. Founded by seasoned entrepreneurs Sohrab Sitaram and Shiv Dhawan, First Coffee sources its beans from the renowned Harley Estate in Chikmagalur, Karnataka. We specialize in single-origin, micro-lot coffee, meaning the beans are harvested from specific areas of the farm to ensure consistent flavor and quality. This sustainable approach guarantees that each cup offers an outstanding taste while supporting responsible farming practices.
The new Chandigarh outlet is thoughtfully designed to blend modern aesthetics with functionality, offering a seamless grab-and-go experience that perfectly complements today’s fast-paced lifestyle. Every element of the outlet is crafted to ensure a premium, efficient, and satisfying visit for coffee lovers on the move. The menu features a mix of beloved coffee classics alongside bold signature drinks. Whether you’re savoring a rich Hot Coffee or indulging in one of our creamy Frappes, there’s something for every taste. Tea lovers can enjoy the comfort of traditional Hot Chai or explore our Special Teas, while globally popular favorites like Matcha and Boba Teas bring a refreshing, contemporary twist to the menu.
Our tagline, “First Coffee, Then Everything Else,” embodies our belief that coffee is the ultimate catalyst. It powers not just individuals but entire communities to go after what matters most. Whether it’s sport, art, fitness, or music, coffee is the elixir that energizes and inspires action. From the first sip to the final masterpiece, First Coffee is the unwavering companion to those who dare to dream, create, and disrupt.
“We’re thrilled to bring First Coffee to Chandigarh,” said Sohrab Sitaram, Co-founder. “Chandigarh’s vibrant culture and passion for quality align perfectly with our brand, making it an ideal next step in our journey to expand across India.” Added Shiv Dhawan, Co-founder, “This is just the beginning as we continue our mission to bring premium, accessible coffee to cities across the country.”
With a focus on sustainable, single-origin coffee that celebrates the art of brewing, First Coffee is quickly building a loyal customer base.
