French bakery and cafe brand, PAUL, has debuted in Bengaluru with the opening of its first outlet at Orion Gateway Mall, Rajajinagar. This marks the brand’s eighth store in India and brings an authentic taste of France to the city. Known worldwide for its artisanal breads, viennoiseries, patisserie, and classic French cafe culture, PAUL introduces Bengaluru to a refined European dining experience. Located along the serene lakeside promenade, the new PAUL café features an elegant alfresco inspired setting that evokes the charm of Parisian street-side cafés. Designed as a destination for every occasion including leisurely breakfasts, mid-day coffee breaks, weekend brunches, client meetings, and quiet solo indulgences, it brings the timeless European café lifestyle to the heart of Bengaluru.“Rooted in France and shaped over 137 years, PAUL embodies the French art de vivre through time-honoured craftsmanship and authenticity. Today, with a presence across 57 countries, Bengaluru becomes part of that enduring journey,” said David Yang, chief executive officer, PAUL APAC.
“A significant milestone in PAUL’s India journey. We are thrilled to open our first outlet in Bengaluru at Orion Gateway Mall, a significant milestone in PAUL’s India journey. At PAUL, we remain committed to using only the finest ingredients, free from palm oil, artificial colours, and additives. Guided by our philosophy of Eat Well Live Well, we champion wellness, sustainability, and mindful indulgence. Our core offerings such as hot chocolate, pain au chocolat, viennoiseries, and croissants continue to define the brand’s authentic appeal. We look forward to sharing the joy of French culinary excellence with Bengaluru one croissant at a time,” added Vaibhav Kaushish, chief operating officer, PAUL India.
PAUL’s arrival in Bengaluru continues the brand’s commitment to offering a uniform and globally consistent French and European dining experience. Just as in its cafes in Mumbai and Delhi, guests can expect authentic recipes, artisanal craftsmanship, and premium dining that is refined yet welcoming, the release added.
