Restaurant India News: TGI Fridays Opens New Flagship Restaurant in Connaught Place, Delhi

American casual dining chain TGI Fridays has strengthened its India presence with the launch of a new flagship restaurant in Connaught Place, New Delhi. The outlet has been launched by Bistro Hospitality, the brand’s master franchisee in India, in partnership with Feastary Hospitality, the franchise operator for North India.

The launch is part of TGI Fridays’ ongoing expansion strategy in the country as the company plans a phased rollout of additional outlets across key markets.

Kuunal Maiti, CEO, Bistro Hospitality, said, “TGI Fridays currently operates restaurants in Kolkata, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Gurgaon, and now at Connaught Place, with another outlet at Vasant Kunj set to open shortly. This expansion will double the store count from three to six within a span of 12 months. Several additional locations are already being planned, underscoring the brand’s continued expansion and long-term commitment to the Indian market.”

The Connaught Place outlet marks the latest development in the partnership between Bistro Hospitality and Feastary Hospitality, which are jointly leading the brand’s growth strategy in North India.

Suraj Mahant, Managing Partner, Feastary Hospitality, said, “When we launched in Gurugram, we had outlined a clear vision for North India. Connaught Place marks another key milestone in that journey. This flagship restaurant further strengthens the brand’s presence in the region while laying the foundation for sustained expansion across important northern markets.”

TGI Fridays currently operates in more than 40 countries and is known globally for its American-style food and beverage offerings. Earlier this year, the company announced its broader “1-2-3 Strategic Vision,” under which it aims to open more than 1,000 outlets worldwide and achieve $2 billion in annual revenue by 2030.
