Pune’s own Marrakesh, a fast-serve Lebanese eatery on Balewadi High Street, exemplifies how design bridges local roots with vibrant Lebanese flair. Despite its compact size, the layout cleverly maximizes seating, accommodating diners downstairs and upstairs via a well-placed staircase. Stepping into the restaurant, guests are transported to the Middle East with classic arches and a warm, colorful palette. The spatial arrangement itself fosters a lively and social atmosphere, perfect for gatherings and enjoying the communal dining experience. This Pune success story proves that thoughtful design can elevate a fast-serve restaurant into a vibrant social destination.
