Zolocrust readies its third restaurant in Delhi after Lucknow launch, keeping the Jaipur café brand's growth measured
Zolocrust is preparing to open its third restaurant in Delhi, after opening in Lucknow on 28 December 2025. The Jaipur vegetarian café brand plans measured growth, and founder Arjun Kumar does not expect to open twenty or a hundred outlets a year.

What it means for the format
Zolocrust, the 11-year-old Jaipur vegetarian café brand, opened in Lucknow on 28 December 2025 and is readying its third restaurant in Delhi, so peers should expect a slow, one-outlet-at-a-time rollout, not a blitz.
