September has a way of making Delhi NCR want to linger over lunch. With the worst of the summer heat easing, weekends are bringing people back to hotel restaurants for long, leisurely brunches, many of which are giving the familiar format a fresh spin with pottery, street-food stations and regional Indian menus.
We’ve rounded up five brunches that bring something different to the table, from leisurely spreads and regional flavours to interactive experiences and familiar favourites with a twist. Whether you’re catching up with old friends or making a Sunday afternoon of it, these weekend brunches are worth bookmarking this September in Delhi-NCR.
Taj City Centre Gurugram
At Taj City Centre Gurugram, the Sunday table has turned into a moving map of the country. The ‘Sunday Regional Brunch: A Journey Through India’ takes over Culina 44 every Sunday through September, with each week dedicated to a different region’s food story: Delhi 6 Delights on the 6th, Kashmiri Heritage on the September 13, Flavours of Magadh on September 20, and a Rampuri Nawabi Feast to close out the month on September 27.

Expect authentic recipes, local ingredients and the kind of dish-by-dish storytelling that makes a buffet feel like travel. Culina 44 partners with Shalmali for the spread.
When: Every Sunday in September, 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Where: Culina 44, Taj City Centre Gurugram
Taj Surajkund Resort & Spa, Delhi NCR
For something more tactile, Taj Surajkund Resort & Spa’s new ‘Brunch & Clay’ pairs an indulgent Sunday spread with a hands-on pottery session: brunch first at Vista, then a turn at the wheel in the resort’s pottery studio to shape a keepsake of your own. It’s a rare instance of a hotel brunch building in an actual souvenir, and a genuinely different way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon just outside the city.
When: Every Sunday, 13 September – 11 October 2026, 12:30 pm – 4:00 pm
Where: Vista, Taj Surajkund Resort & Spa, Delhi NCR
Andaz Delhi
Andaz Delhi’s AnnaMaya has long been an Aerocity favourite for its Sunday spread, and the ‘Around The World Brunch’ lives up to its name: live counters spanning multiple cuisines, a strong beverage programme, and the kind of buzzy, all-afternoon energy that’s made it a recurring fixture on Delhi’s brunch circuit rather than a seasonal one-off.
When: Every Sunday
Where: AnnaMaya, Andaz Delhi, Aerocity
The Lodhi, New Delhi
The Lodhi’s Sunday brunch has a cult following in Delhi, and its current avatar leans into sport-club energy: ‘Sip Serve Smash’ turns Lodhi Lawns into an afternoon of food, drink and play, with over 100 preparations across live grill, pasta and chaat counters, a health-forward counter of nourishing bowls and fresh-pressed juices, DJ sets and access to lawn games including pickleball, foosball and human chess between courses.
When: Sundays, 12:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Where: Lodhi Lawns, The Lodhi, New Delhi
JW Marriott Hotel New Delhi Aerocity
K3’s “food theatre” format, three open kitchens running Mediterranean, Asian and Indian menus side by side, helmed by a trio of specialist chefs, makes its ‘Signature Sunday Brunch’ feel more like a culinary crawl than a buffet line.

Grilled seafood and fresh pasta on one side, sushi and dim sum on another, curries and biryanis on the third, and an elaborate dessert counter to tie it all together, with al fresco seating and live music rounding out the afternoon.
When: Sundays
Where: K3, JW Marriott Hotel New Delhi Aerocity
Five very different afternoons, one shared idea: that a good brunch is reason enough to leave the house this September, so pick your Sunday and go be leisurely about it.
