18 Delicious Reasons Why Nehru Place Is The Most Happening Metro Station

No other metro station in the city has been able to create a better vibe with a wide array of places to go to eat or enjoy at, even on the weekends. There are fantastic spots here that are as good for an evening coffee date as they are for a great Friday or a Saturday night with your sqaud. This metro station has snatched away the attention Greater Kailash 1,2 and Select Citywalk used to get in South Delhi. Our favourite spots here definitely include these -
