GANDHINAGAR, GUJARAT | 16th FEBRUARY 2026 — Three O’Clock Café, the renowned Vietnamese coffee brand partnered with Franchise India Brands Limited, proudly inaugurates its eighth café in India at a prime location on PDPU Road, Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Following the successful launches of its first outlets in Gurugram and subsequent expansions across Delhi NCR and other cities, this flagship venue brings the brand’s signature 3 AM coffee ritual to Gujarat’s capital and its thriving young population.
About Three O’Clock Café
Three O’Clock Café originated in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in 2016 as a 24-hour coffee and tea chain, embodying the cultural tradition of pausing at 3 AM for slow-brewed coffee and meaningful conversations. The brand operates numerous outlets worldwide, with seven in India so far, offering authentic Phin-filter coffee, egg coffee, coconut coffee, cold brews using premium Vietnamese beans, matcha, alongside Vietnamese dishes like bánh mì, baos, fresh bakes, and desserts.
Three O’Clock Café positions itself as more than a beverage spot — it’s a dynamic, community-focused space for young professionals and Gen Z, blending Vietnam’s wellness-oriented, innovative flavours with modern interiors ideal for work-from-café sessions, networking, and relaxation. This taps into India’s booming coffee culture, where the branded coffee shop market continues to grow rapidly, driven by demand for global, artisanal experiences.
Gandhinagar’s Café Momentum
Gaurav Marya, Founder and Chairman, Franchise India, said, “Franchising remains the fastest and most scalable way for global food brands to grow in India. With strong consumption, young consumers, and rising demand for international flavours, the market offers immense opportunity. This expansion has been possible with the consistent support of Franchise India.”
Gandhinagar, known for its planned infrastructure, educational institutions, and fast-growing residential ecosystem, is witnessing a sharp rise in café culture among students, entrepreneurs, and corporate professionals. The PDPU Road belt in particular has emerged as a vibrant social and commercial hub, with consumers increasingly seeking premium spaces for meetings, study sessions, and social gatherings.
Spread across 1,500 sq. ft., the new outlet is designed as a flagship café, offering elevated interiors, comfortable seating, and an immersive Vietnamese coffee experience — ideal for long conversations, collaborative work, and community events.
“As I connect with my network in Gandhinagar, everyone is excited to experience authentic Vietnamese coffee at our flagship café on PDPU Road — a perfect destination for networking sessions, casual meetups, and quality coffee breaks,” said Dhruvkumar Pravinbhai Soni & Dhwani Dhruvkumar Soni.
With this Gandhinagar milestone, opened on Feb 15, 2026, Three O’Clock Café eyes further pan-India growth, leveraging Franchise India’s expertise to introduce Vietnam’s cherished coffee ritual to more cities, fostering community hubs amid India’s evolving café landscape.
