About Us
MR. BANARASI CHAIWALA began as a humble tea shop in Bajardiha, Varanasi, founded by Mr. Meraj. Driven by a passion for authentic Banarasi chai and a desire to bring people together, he focused on sourcing quality tea leaves and perfecting his blend. The shop quickly became a local favorite, attracting people of all ages who enjoyed not just the tea, but the welcoming atmosphere and sense of community.
Encouraged by the success, Mr. Meraj expanded to Lohta, where the tradition of serving chai in clay cups continued. The Lohta branch became popular among locals and commuters, known for its consistent quality and friendly service. With each new location, MR. BANARASI CHAIWALA maintained its commitment to authentic flavors and hospitality.
The Sushwahi shop quickly became a students' favorite. It turned into a preferred spot for friends and study groups to gather and enjoy a cup of tea in a relaxed setting. The Kabir Nagar branch later brought the brand closer to the city center, attracting a diverse clientele and further establishing MR. BANARASI CHAIWALA as a beloved local institution.
Lallapura continued the same tradition—brewing tea with carefully selected spices and serving in clay cups to enhance flavor and support local artisans. Each branch is designed to be inclusive and comfortable, with staff treating every customer like family and events that foster a sense of community.
MR. BANARASI CHAIWALA stands out for its commitment to quality and community. Mr. Meraj believes tea is more than a beverage—it’s a way to connect people and celebrate life’s simple joys. The brand has become a symbol of Varanasi’s tea culture, known for its unique flavors and warm hospitality. Looking ahead, MR. BANARASI CHAIWALA aims to share its tradition with even more people through its growing franchise program, inviting tea lovers to join the journey and experience the magic of Banarasi chai.
