About Vinayak Cafe & Restaurant, Prayagraj

Crystal chandeliers, marble walls washed in violet light, deep-blue velvet booths and a living green wall. Vinayak is a room made for long dinners and slow coffee.

The kitchen cooks the food Prayagraj loves to share: rich paneer gravies with naan and lachha paratha from the tandoor, smoky tikka platters, Indo-Chinese favourites and cafe plates. The bar pours bright mocktails, thick shakes and cold coffee all day.

Come for a quiet dinner for two, bring the whole family, or let us set up a birthday surprise. Your table is one WhatsApp message away.

The cafe side of Vinayak

Between lunch and dinner the room slows down. Drop in for masala chai, a cappuccino or cold coffee with ice cream, with pizza, pasta, sandwiches, Maggi and peri peri fries from the cafe menu.
