Beanlore Opens 4th Café in Koramangala With Two-Floor Format

Bengaluru-based neighbourhood café brand Beanlore has opened its fourth outlet in Koramangala, expanding its presence across the city. The new café is located in an old Bangalore bungalow and is the brand’s first two-floor outlet, with separate formats for dining and work.

The ground floor opens into the garden and outdoor seating and is kept work-free, while the first floor is designed as a work-friendly area with private meeting pods for calls and small meetings. The café has also introduced a new soft serve counter, exclusive to the Koramangala outlet, with flavours changing through the week.

The outlet continues Beanlore’s existing operating model, with coffee roasted in-house using Chikkamagaluru beans, bread baked fresh each morning and sauces, cold brew and soft serve prepared in-house.

"This Beanlore is a little different from the ones that came before it. As our first café spread across two floors, the old home gave us a chance to rethink not just how the café looked, but how different parts of it could be experienced. We wanted the ground floor to stay simple and focused on food, coffee and conversation, and let the first floor become its own space for work," said Prasanna Kumar, Co-Founder, Beanlore.

The Koramangala menu includes sandwiches, bowls, bakery products and beverages. Key food options include the Harissa Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Italian Pesto Ciabatta, Smoked Chicken Baguette, Bahn Mi Rice Bowl, Asian Rice Bowl, Mixed Berry Smoothie Bowl, Almond Croissant and Crispy Chickpea with Burrata & Harra.

The coffee menu includes espresso-based beverages and signature drinks such as Salted Pistachio Matcha, Popcorn Latte, Spanish Latte, Lotus Latte and Banana Latte.

The new outlet follows Beanlore’s expansion from its first café in HSR Layout to locations in Indiranagar and Jayanagar. The brand continues to operate with a focus on in-house production, fresh bread, seasonal ingredients and equal emphasis on food and beverages.

"Koramangala is only one part of what's ahead for us. We're already working on our fifth café, which we expect to open within the next three months, and beyond that, we're building toward 25 cafés across Bengaluru over the coming years. Our approach has always been to grow one neighbourhood at a time, with the same standard in every kitchen," added Prasanna Kumar.

The Koramangala launch is part of Beanlore’s wider plan to expand its Bengaluru café network. The company expects to open its fifth café within the next three months and is targeting 25 cafés across Bengaluru over the coming years.
