Barbeque Nation was founded in 2006 with a simple vision - offering a complete dining experience to customers at affordable prices. One of the most successful casual dining chains in India, Barbeque Nation pioneered the concept of live grills embedded under dining tables - allowing customers to grill their own barbecue's right at their tables. A novelty at the time, the restaurant allowed clients to customize their own starters with their preference of flavours - ushering the era of 'Do It Yourself cuisine' in India. The look and feel of all outlets is rustic and casual with wood and open-brick wall surface. The sizzle of the grills livens up the whole atmosphere and gives diners a comfortable and cosy experience. In its very first outlet in Mumbai in 2006, Barbeque Nation inculcated the one principle that would cause the chain to expand pan-India in an amazingly short time period, putting the customer first at all steps of the dining experience - from reserving a table and customizing the level of spiciness, to creating in house live entertainment and taking feedback from customers long after their dining experience was over. The brand was awarded one of the Top 37 best places to work in India in the largest workplace study conducted by The Economic Times. The 'Great Places to Work' award was a testament to Barbeque Nation's work culture, which motivates team members to exceed expectations. In 2017, Great Place to Work with association with rai (Retailers Association of India), awarded Barbeque Nation as one of the Top 10 retailers to work for in 2017. On 30th June 2017, for the second consecutive time, Barbeque Nation was awarded as Top 36 best places to work in India & the study was conducted by Economic Times. The real secret behind the Barbeque chain's growth is the philosophy of always putting the customer first. Adhering to this principle, the restaurant chain offers innovative food festivals across outlets introducing patrons to a range of culinary and experiential aspects of interesting locations-both exotic international places and hidden gems within India. Today, Barbeque Nation operates across 137+ outlets and is looking to new shores, to spread the Barbeque Nation magic.
