Every resident of Lucknow has been to one of the city’s most famous cafes, Cappuccino Blast, not once but multiple times. While their coffees and mouthwatering food has always been class apart, do you know how the boss lady behind the venture, Mrs. Puja Vaid started the café?

Today, Cappuccino Blast boasts of a fun vibe, warm and cozy ambience and service that will make you come back to this hangout spot again. But back in 2000, Mrs. Vaid started the café with Rs. 25000 that she borrowed from her father and a mere five chairs and few tables. Not many know that Cappuccino Blast started the café culture in Lucknow even when big chains like Barista and Café Coffee Day were not present in the city.’

Cappuccino Blast is a favourite hangout spot for everyone in Lucknow. And Puja Vaid is still as invested in her wonderful creation as she was 24 years ago. Right from visualizing the décor, managing operations and even whipping up delectable delicacies in the kitchen, she pays attention to everything to ensure the highest customer satisfaction.

The vintage themed café has a beautiful entryway and is adorned with floral decorations all around, making your evenings a celebration. Everything from the coolers, coffee, shakes to pizzas, burgers and sandwiches at the café is yum. If you haven’t already, it is a must to checkout this place once.
