Restaurant India News: Nukkad Cafe Opens New Outlet in GK II with Retro Gaming and Local Bites

Nukkad Cafe & Bar has opened its fourth location, this time in South Delhi’s Greater Kailash II (GK II), M Block Market. The new outlet continues the brand’s approach of blending casual dining with nostalgic themes — in this case, retro gaming — while offering familiar food and drink selections that cater to a wide audience. The GK II outlet features interiors inspired by classic video games, complete with murals and a Mario video game installed at the bar. The design aims to create a relaxed, immersive space that connects with customers through shared cultural references from the 90s.

The menu includes signature offerings such as Matka L.I.I.T., Banta cocktails, and locally inspired Tharra. Food options include crowd-pullers like Gunpowder Chicken Tikka, Anda Parantha, and Pao Bhaji Sliders — a combination that reflects both nostalgia and mass appeal.

Live music is part of the daily operations, with performances scheduled 360 days a year. This consistent entertainment format is intended to enhance footfall and extend dwell time during both weekdays and weekends.

“At Nukkad, we’re reviving memories and bringing people together over great food, creative drinks, and the unforgettable vibe of the 90s,” said Kanishk Tuteja, Founder, Nukkad Cafe & Bar.

With outlets currently operating in Delhi and Dehradun, the brand positions itself as a neighbourhood-friendly destination focused on community, casual ambience, and culturally resonant food and beverages.
