Nestled in the heart of the capital’s Khan Market is a whimsical world of flavor, intrigue, and comfort: Sly Granny. This eatery promises an experience as fulfilling as leaving grandma’s home—with a full heart and a satisfied stomach.
Cozily curated to resemble a quirky, jet-setting grandmother’s home, this restaurant infuses each corner with nuance and an eclectic, globally-inspired menu. Sly Granny combines sophisticated dining with a playful touch of mischief.
Here, each dish reflects Granny’s adventures and eccentric tastes. The menu—a fusion of European classics and bold local twists—is crafted for communal dining, where tapas, seasonal small plates, and breakfast offerings capture flavors from across the globe. Highlights include signature dishes like the poached peaches and brie, along with a rotating selection of artisanal tapas, hand-rolled pizzas, and soulful European-inspired mains.
At the helm of Sly Granny’s cocktail and culinary magic is Karan, the Brand Engagement Manager and Beverage Head at Azure Hospitality. A graduate of the prestigious Blue Mountains Hotel School in Australia, Karan has amassed over 16 years of expertise across iconic venues like Blue Frog, CAARA, and Pass Code Hospitality’s celebrated spots—Jamun, PCO, Pings, and Saz. His robust experience brings a refined touch to Sly Granny, from the meticulous crafting of bold cocktails to polished F&B operations.
During the lockdown, Karan realized a lifelong dream by launching Mattancherry Junction, a cloud kitchen that quickly became the talk of the town for its heartwarming Malayali soul food. Now, Karan’s passion and ingenuity infuse Sly Granny’s bar, where he crafts “mood cocktails” that deliver more than just a drink—they’re unique experiences. Whether behind the bar or in the kitchen, Karan is always stirring up something magical, elevating each sip and bite with an inventive flair.
The cocktail list at Sly Granny pays tribute to Granny’s globe-trotting spirit, offering guests an array of imaginative concoctions with unique flavors and presentations. From the refreshing Betty Ford Tribute to the striking Ruby Myers, each drink is crafted to surprise and delight. One standout is the “Wildcat of Bombay,” a tribute to Granny’s beloved 1927 film and a journey through India’s vibrant spices. This tequila-based cocktail features roasted yellow pimento for warmth, fresh lemon zest for brightness, cilantro for a delicate herbal note, and jalapenos for a kick that lingers long after the last sip. The “Wildcat of Bombay” isn’t just a cocktail; it’s an exhilarating escapade for the senses, capturing the boldness of Granny’s spirit.
Sly Granny’s interiors, designed by Azure Hospitality co-founders Kabir Suri and Rahul Khanna, blend mid-century elegance with contemporary eclectic charm. Granny’s “home” features rooms styled as an English club and a rooftop with East Village vibes—each corner filled with vintage curios and Instagram-worthy details. Perfect for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations, the space offers private dining spaces and a rooftop terrace that make any event feel special.
