In recent times, the most noticeable thing I’ve seen about the weekends are Sunday brunches. These siestas are attended religiously by people looking to soothe a hangover and probably make another for Monday. It’s a perfect way to drown the sins of Saturday, get your belly bursting and your brain buzzing.
Here’s some of the coolest brunch buffets in Gurgaon and Delhi under Rs. 1500.
All of these are with taxes extra.
1. Pirates of Grill, MGF Megacity Mall, Gurgaon
A huge range of barbecued goodies await your chompers at Rs. 800 plus taxes. They’ve got options for vegetarians as well, though a vegetarian going to a barbeque makes little sense to me.
Price: Rs.800
2. The California Boulevard, Sector 29, Gurgaon
They’ve got a huge variety of cuisine ranging from Italian to Oriental to Indian, plus a live waffle and pancake station. Here comes the drool! It’ll set you back Rs.800 for only food and Rs.1000 for food and IMFL.
Price: Rs.800 only food. Rs.1000 food and IMFL
3. Vapour Pub And Brewery, MGF Megacity Mall, Gurgaon
There’s no alcohol included, but you do get to choose from a wide choice of soups starters and mains, plus a few breakfast options. Rs. 399 gets you this pretty sweet deal, and there’s also some dessert to ease the pain.
Price: Rs.399
4. Olive Bistro, Cyber Hub, Gurgaon
Crazy continental scenes at Olive at Rs.1000 for food only or Rs.1500 with alcohol. You get a whole mix of pastas and risottos and other cool sounding food things. The place is pretty funky too.
Price: Rs.1000 only food. Rs.1500 food and alcohol
5. Fres Co, Ambience Mall, Gurgaon
Indulge your healthier side and go for their Rs. 795 buffet of soups, salads and thin crust pizzas, along with dessert. No alcohol.
Price: Rs.795
6. Spaghetti Kitchen, Sector 29, Gurgaon
They’ve allegedly got a whole range of antipasti, zuppe, insalate (No idea what those last two are) and delicious wood-fired pizzas. Who can refuse some dishy ‘za on a chill Sunday for Rs. 695? That’s right, NO ONE.
Price: Rs.695

9. Dine-Esty, Times Square Building, Sushant Lok, DLF Phase IV, Gurgaon
Some solid Chinese food which makes up for the groan-worthy name of this fancy little spot. Rs. 886 for the buffet, and you get a glass of wine. One glass…meh.
Price: Rs.886
10. Rooftop Barbeque, Country Inn & Suites, Sector 12, Gurgaon

13. Barbeque Nation
Head here for some killer kebabs, though their drinks are all soft. Anyway, enjoy the meatier options for a cool Rs. 866 or go the vegetarian way for Rs. 742, either way you’ll be stuffed and chuffed.
