Zypher’s: Pune’s Cozy New Bistro and Gelateria That’s Full of Soul and Flavor

Pune: If you’re in Pune and searching for a place that combines soulful design, standout coffee, and a globally inspired menu, Zypher’s in Wakad is your next must-visit destination. A charming blend of bistro, gelateria, and creative sanctuary, Zypher’s has quickly emerged as one of Pune’s most beloved new eateries. Founded by the dynamic mother-son duo, Rohan and Ruchita Juriasinghani, this thoughtfully curated space is winning hearts with its warm atmosphere and detail-rich menu.

Born out of a homegrown dream, Zypher’s is more than just a restaurant — it’s a story of passion, craft, and care. The name itself is a playful twist on zephyr, meaning a soft breeze, reflecting the calming yet vibrant spirit of the space. Tucked inside a township in Wakad with no direct F&B competition, Zypher’s has carved a strong identity for itself by combining heartwarming hospitality with globally sourced ingredients.

Their beans are flown in from Sumatra, cocoa from Indonesia, and vanilla straight from Madagascar. Add to that a fine lineup of Thai and Japanese ingredients, and you’ve got a culinary journey without borders, grounded in quality.

Walk into Zypher’s and you’re instantly embraced by a serene yet stylish vibe. Earthy tones, bamboo roofing, cascading plants, and handcrafted lighting pieces make it feel like the kind of café you’d stumble upon in Bali or Kyoto. Whether it’s a quiet coffee break, an intimate brunch, or a full-blown family outing, the space adapts to your mood — effortlessly cozy, incredibly Instagrammable.

For those who take their coffee seriously, Zypher’s is a dream come true. Their signature brews are a work of art — from the indulgent Tiramisu Latte with mascarpone and cocoa dust to the floral and photogenic Blue Pea Iced Latte. If you’re after something deeply comforting, the Nutella Hazelnut Hot Chocolate with Turkish hazelnuts is a hug in a mug. Tea lovers are in for a treat too with their aromatic Kahwa, a soulful blend of Kashmiri saffron, rose petals, cardamom, and green tea, served hot or iced.

Zypher’s doesn’t serve alcohol, but you won’t even miss it. Their mocktail menu packs a punch with inventive combinations. The Valley of Flowers mixes elderflower, lavender, and grenadine for a floral burst, while Devil in Disguise pairs passion fruit, lychee rose, and bird’s eye chili with sparkling water for a bold, spicy hit.

The food menu reflects the same care and creativity as the drinks. Nostalgia meets modern comfort with dishes like the Railway Cutlet & Toast — a nod to the iconic Deccan Queen — and Mushroom Parmesan Toast that melts in your mouth. Vegetarian highlights include the vibrant Beetroot Carpaccio and creamy Burrata with Sundried Tomatoes. Fans of Asian small plates will love the Tom Yum Chicken Sushi, Korean Mushroom Cheese Mandu, and Gochujang Mac & Cheese Balls. RJ’s 5-Cheese Toast with Hot Honey is quickly becoming a customer favorite.

What truly sets Zypher’s apart is its gelateria, stocked with handcrafted ice creams and gelatos made in-house. Each scoop is smooth, flavourful, and a perfect way to wrap up your meal or beat the Pune heat.

As Rohan Juriasinghani, Founder of Zypher’s, says, “Zypher’s isn’t just a bistro for me; it’s a passion project that blends my love for great coffee, quality ingredients, and creating a space where people can truly feel at home. Every dish, every cup, every corner of this place has been meticulously crafted to offer a warm, welcoming experience.”

Whether you’re a food explorer, coffee nerd, or someone who simply loves discovering charming new places in Pune, Zypher’s promises a little escape, a lot of flavor, and an experience that keeps you coming back.
