Brewed with love and freshness. Nothing refined, nothing rushed — food and drink built back from the root. A millet kitchen, a brew bar and a wellness boutique sharing one address in Kharadi.
Zero maida, 70% milletStones, silver & poojaNo added preservativesPlants to buy or rent
No preservatives. No artificial anything. That was the whole point.
Running a cafe the other way is cheaper and a great deal easier. We make our breads, bases, pastas, sauces and spice blends in house so we know exactly what goes into them — and we hold the store shelf to the same rule.
No added preservatives
Nothing on our counter is built to outlast the week. Food is made in small batches and sold fresh, which is the only reason it can be made this way.
No artificial colours or flavours
The blue in our butterfly pea tea is the flower. The pink in the Blush smoothie is beetroot. Nothing on the menu gets its colour from a bottle.
No maida
Every bread, pizza base and pasta is 70% millet, 20% wheat and 10% clustered beans and flax seed, milled and made in our own kitchen.
No syrups or concentrates
Juices are cold pressed and smoothies are whole fruit, sweetened with dates, jaggery and brown sugar rather than refined sugar or squash.
The same thinking runs through the store. We stock Indian makers whose sourcing we can explain across the counter, and we would rather carry a smaller shelf than one we cannot stand behind.
The idea
We started with the grain and worked outwards.
Ragi, jowar, bajra and foxtail millet are not a trend here — they are the base of the pizza, the bread in the sandwich, the flour in the pasta. Around that kitchen we built two more counters: one for the stones, silver and pooja pieces people actually keep, and one for plants that survive an office desk. Same roof, same values, one bill.
Zero maida, ever
Every bread, base and pasta is a 70% millet, 20% wheat, 10% clustered bean and flax blend, made in house. Not a health claim bolted onto a normal menu — it is the only way we make them.
Beans and leaf, named
High-elevation beans, ground fresh for every cup. Darjeeling second flush — the muscatel summer picking — across our black and green teas. If we pour it, we can tell you where it came from.
Made for the neighbourhood
Kharadi runs on office hours. We plan the counter around them — quick lunch formats, desk-friendly plants, and catering that arrives when the meeting starts.
The space
Cafe on one side, store on the other.
Come for a plate, leave with a plant. Most people do both.
Cafe menu
Coffee, tea, cold press and the millet kitchen.
The full card, same as the booklet on your table. Pick a section to filter, or browse everything. Vegetarian throughout; almond milk and no-cheese swaps on request.
All prices in rupees. Some items are seasonal and may be unavailable. Please tell us if you are allergic to any ingredient, or if there is something you would rather leave out.
One roof, three counters
Just Roots is the cafe. It is also the address for two more.
You can eat, pick up a gift and take home a plant in a single visit — which is exactly why corporate hampers from us tend to include all three.
The cafe & pantry
Just Roots
Millet-forward pizzas, subs, pastas, chaats and cold-pressed drinks, plus a pantry shelf of packaged millet products, teas and wellness staples. Follow @justrootsofficial for everything across the three brands, or @justrootscafe if you only want the kitchen.
Alongside our own label, we stock Indian makers whose sourcing we are happy to explain across the counter — organic food, natural personal care, hemp, bamboo and ayurveda.
Beyond the counter
Bulk, gifting and everything on contract.
Corporate catering
Breakfast spreads, working lunches and event counters for offices in the EON and World Trade Centre belt. Millet-based menus that hold up on a buffet line.
Gifting hampers
Diwali, onboarding and client gifting boxes combining cafe products, an Aura Minis piece and a La Plantas plant. Branded, assembled and delivered by us.
Office plant rental
Monthly contracts covering plants, planters, placement and upkeep. We swap anything that stops looking good — that is the point of renting.
Packaged millet range
Our own-label packaged products for home, in store now and rolling out to justrootsindia.com.

Reviews are how people in Kharadi find a small kitchen like ours. If the food or the shop was good to you, thirty seconds here goes a long way.
