Pitampura Wedding Shopping Guide

How To Reach Pitampura?

Reaching Pitampura is pretty easy. Since it's located in North Delhi, you can reach it via road or metro. If you're travelling via metro, then you'll need to take the Red Line. Pitampura metro station is the fourth last metro station on the red line on the Rithala side. The Red Line is connected to various other lines on the metro, including the Pink Line on Netaji Subhash Place & Welcome and the Yellow & Violet Line on Kashmere Gate. Apart from this, if you live near the area then it's best if you take an auto or a cab to the market. 

Where To Buy What From Pitampura For Your Wedding

Pitampura is an upscale residential area in the North Delhi district of Delhi, India. It's located adjacent to Rohini. While the roads here are wide and spacious enough to take your vehicles to, it's always best to be ready to use local transportation like autos and rickshaws when traversing through smaller bylanes. Apart from the abundance of major jewellery stores located on the main road, there are no designated lanes for different categories and everything can be found anywhere. You may find jewellery after every two stores or maybe footwear shops right outside bigger ones. Another plus point of visiting Pitampura for wedding shopping is that Dilli Haat Pitampura is located there. So, you can also go on a little handloom & handicraft shopping spree while you're there.

Here are some stores you should keep a lookout for:

Things To Keep In Mind While Shopping In Pitampura

✅ Note that Pitampura market is closed on Sundays. 

✅ As compared to other markets in North Delhi, it is slightly less crowded. 

✅ There are various parking spots (both paid & unpaid), so parking your vehicles isn't a problem. 

✅ The best time to step into the local market is when it opens at around 10-11 am. The shopkeepers sell things at throwaway prices because it's the first sale of the day. 

✅ Carry a spare shopping bag with you where you can keep your things. This is because shopkeepers generally give their things in cheap polybags, which are hazardous to the environment. In case you forget it, then buy one at a low price from one of the local vendors there.

✅ Dress comfortably, as you're going to walk a lot. 

Here Are Some Food Stops!

Every foodie knows that Pitampura market has some of the most famous and time-honoured eateries. From fast food to desi treats, here are some pit-stop-worthy eating joints here:

🍲Shake Square Cafe: A long-running cafe serving a variety of milkshakes, casual comfort food & ice cream.

🍲Pikwik: Known for being one of the best family restaurants, Pikwik still hasn’t lost its charm. There’s nothing great about the ambience but it’s comfortable. They’ve built a pretty solid reputation for their butter chicken over the years and are a pretty good spot for some good ol’ Chinjabi!

🍲Netaji Subhash Place: Known as NSP, the place is throbbing with eateries like Billu’s Food Hut, Sandwich King, Hot Spot and Flavour. There are burger joints like Burger King and La Americana and everyone’s favourite, The Barbeque Nation.
