History
Third Culture Coffee was operating as a Lahore-based roastery by 2021. Before opening a permanent café, it sold freshly roasted coffee and used a pop-up model in partnership with restaurants in Lahore.
The business began as a roastery in 2020. Its first café opened in July 2022 in a 10-by-20-foot shipping container on Main Boulevard, Gulberg, Lahore. The container café operated until August 2023. Third Culture Coffee later opened additional branches in Lahore. [3]
Coffee roasting
Gulberg container café
The original Gulberg café was located in a 20-foot shipping container on Main Boulevard. The café was later discussed as one of Lahore’s informal public gathering spaces. [4]
In July 2023, the Lahore Development Authority carried out operations against illegal constructions and commercial land-use violations in parts of Gulberg, Lahore, including Zafar Ali Road and Main Boulevard. Third Culture Coffee was among the businesses affected by the operation. The original container café was later described as having been demolished by the Lahore Development Authority. [5]
Model Town police station café
In 2024, Third Culture Coffee opened a café inside the Model Town, Lahore A Block Police Station in Lahore. [6] The project developed after discussions between Third Culture Coffee and Punjab Police officials. The café was ready by September 2024. It was presented as a community-policing initiative intended to create informal interaction between police officers and residents. [6]
