FES Café, a dessert-focused café chain, has raised INR 3 crore in seed funding.
The funding round was led by Aakash Anand and his venture studio, Wolfpack Labs.
FES Café said in a press release that the new funding will be used to expand the business, starting with a new outlet in Delhi this July.
The brand also aims to become a well-known dessert-first café chain across India, focusing on culture, community, and indulgent treats.
FES Café was founded by Vidur Mayor and is known for its eggless desserts. The café focuses on treating customers with indulgent desserts, creative menu ideas, and building a strong sense of community.
It’s designed to be a hangout spot for young people in India—a “third space” beyond home and work. FES Café offers baked cookies, puddings, special cakes made with alternative ingredients, seasonal treats, savory food, and a rotating dessert menu.
The cafés also include fun features like arcade games and unique events like Coffee Raves to create a special and memorable experience.
Since it started, FES Café says it has grown quickly. In the first three months, its revenue became three times bigger. By the fourth month, the café was making a good profit of 29.8% at the store level. Delivery sales also grew a lot—by 347% in just 90 days. By June 2025, FES was handling more than 10,000 orders every month and became profitable overall within four months.
The Gurugram-based café plans to open its first store in Delhi in July. After that, it will open a second store in a corporate park in Gurugram in September 2025.
FES Café wants to open more than 100 stores by the financial year 2027, in big cities (Tier 1) and smaller cities (Tier 2). They are also working on new business models, such as a mix of company-owned and franchise stores, delivery-only hubs, and packaged desserts, to grow beyond just physical cafés.
