Since 1936
Ninety years
of Delhi's celebrations.
Founded by Lala Nathu Ram Ji and his sons as a modest sweet shop, and still run on the same three rules: pure ghee, small batches, made the morning it is sold.
Ninety years
The beginning
A modest sweet shop
in Delhi.
Lala Nathu Ram Ji and his sons opened the first counter in 1936. What began as a small shop grew — slowly, and by reputation — into a name Delhi recognises, by holding its standards of quality and hospitality while the city's tastes moved on.
At Nathu's, food is not only served. It carries a story of Delhi, of family, and of the celebrations people keep coming back to mark.
