In the heart of Dehradun stands a space that quietly redefines what it means to eat well. House of Nutmeg, founded by Chhavi and Archit, is Dehradun’s first fully vegetarian gourmet restro-café, and it carries that title with understated grace and unwavering purpose.
Thoughtfully designed and warm in character, the café offers an experience where flavour, intention and aesthetics collide beautifully. Each detail, from the classy decor to the carefully plated dishes, emulates a deep sense of respect for conscious living. The menu is entirely vegetarian and vegan, with a strong emphasis on plant-forward ingredients. It is safe to say that the café’s menu is less about restrictions and more about possibilities.
Expect to find global favourites reimagined with a clean twist, familiar Indian dishes that feel both nostalgic and new, and the kind of vegan latte that is more comfort than caffeine. Whether it is a quiet breakfast, a long table brunch or a meaningful dinner with friends, House of Nutmeg creates the kind of atmosphere where time slows down just enough to savour everything — the food, the conversation, the stillness.
A proud venture of Vegetarian Diaries LLP, the café is built on values that go beyond taste. It is a space where wellness, sustainability and hospitality are not afterthoughts but guiding principles. The service is warm without being overbearing. The food is indulgent without being excessive. And the overall experience feels personal, thoughtful and distinctly elevated.
In recognition of its innovation and integrity, House of Nutmeg was recognized and awarded as the ‘Best Vegetarian Restaurant’ at the Dehradun Food Awards 2025, reaffirming a fact that its loyal guests have known all along.
At a time when conscious eating is still finding its way into everyday culture, House of Nutmeg leads the way not with noise, but with quiet confidence. It is not just a place to dine at. It is a place to return to, for flavour, for balance and for a reminder that simple food, when done with care, can feel extraordinary.
