The Comma

Lucknow Opened 15 January 2025

Lucknow's first listening room, inside a 19th-century press building

This place has already changed its name once, and the address still matters more than the sign out front. It opened as Philtre & Co. in a restored printing-press building on Nawal Kishore Road, all warm wood and books, and Architectural Digest India covered the fit-out at launch.

Late 2025 brought a rebrand to The Comma, now calling itself Lucknow's first listening room. Same 2,000-square-foot space, same building, different name on the door.
