The brand’s third Pune outlet spans 10,000 sq. ft., bringing live food experiences, alfresco dining, and more locations planned across the city
India, 5th June 2026: Shiv Sagar Group has opened its third Pune outlet in Kothrud, marking another step in the brand’s expansion journey across Mumbai and Pune. With 17 outlets in its network, the new Kothrud address introduces a refreshed and more experience-led format for the brand while staying rooted in the familiarity associated with Shiv Sagar.
Located in one of Pune’s most culturally vibrant neighbourhoods, the Kothrud outlet has been designed as a homage to the city’s evolving food culture. Spread across a spacious 10,000 sq. ft. bungalow with a seating capacity of 250 guests, the outlet spans three floors and combines earthy contemporary interiors, immersive dining experiences, and thoughtfully designed spaces for families, gatherings, and celebrations.
The restaurant features both indoor and alfresco seating, creating a relaxed and open dining environment designed for all-day gatherings and family dining. Warm textures, abundant natural light, and nature-inspired artwork featuring forests, birds, and wildlife come together to create a space that balances contemporary aesthetics with the comforting atmosphere Shiv Sagar is known for.
Adding to the dining experience are interactive live stations dedicated to some of Shiv Sagar’s most-loved offerings, including Pav Bhaji, Dosas, and a specially curated Filter Kaapi station. The outlet also introduces an expanded menu featuring regional comfort-led additions such as Mangalore Buns, Appe, and Golibajje, alongside several new dishes inspired by India’s diverse culinary traditions.
The Kothrud outlet also houses a dedicated banquet space designed for intimate celebrations, social gatherings, and community events, further strengthening its positioning as a family-focused dining destination. Additional features such as valet parking and spacious seating layouts have been incorporated to create a more seamless dining experience for guests.
Commenting on the launch, Narayan Poojari, Chairman and Founder of Shiv Sagar Group, said: “The vision behind the Kothrud outlet was to reimagine the Shiv Sagar experience while staying connected to its warmth and familiarity. Every element of the space, from the interiors and live stations to the expanded menu and dining experience, has been thoughtfully designed to reflect the evolving lifestyle of today’s diners while preserving the essence of Shiv Sagar. Kothrud felt like the perfect location for this journey because of its strong food culture and vibrant community.”
While the Ubale Nagar outlet continues to remain Shiv Sagar’s largest Pune address, the Kothrud outlet has been envisioned as one of the brand’s most modern and experience-driven spaces in the city. With the launch of its newest Pune outlet, Shiv Sagar Group continues to strengthen its presence in the market, with more expansion plans expected in the near future.
