Go Native is a lifestyle store in Jayanagar which hosts sustainable and local brands with an attached cafe. Creating an awareness on sustainable living, Go Native is a space that leads by example — by showcasing ethical brands. Familiar brands include Bare Necessities, known for their zero-waste products such as straws, soaps and detergent to Ruby Organics known for their organic cosmetics and makeup products. Go native also houses niche and local brands such as Summer Scents that offers candles made with soy wax and a whole bunch of products from Mason & Co. This means you can get yourself vegan and natural accessories such as wallets and bags. Hidden in the suburbs of Jayanagar, Go Native is situated in a huge two storey bungalow covered in tropical greenery. The interiors are earthy with soft lighting — each corner is created with a dash of style and space.
The first floor has a boutique that entices you with vintage cupboards, cabinets, intricate jewellery and beautiful garments made out of organic fabrics. The cafe at Go Native is minimalist in ambience, with an al-fresco balcony seating area and a menu with a twist. Most dishes in the menu are dependent on the availability of seasonal and local ingredients. But you can expect delicious munchies such as the Lotus Stem Paneer Tikki and Crispy Papdi Harabara Kebab. We are also bookmarking their Leguminous Biryani and Zucchini Zoodles. The cafe also has breakfast options like Banana Stem Stuffed Guntur Idly and Black and Red Rice Masala Dosa. They also house Beruru - a garden decor brand for all your planting and gardening needs.

the food is really good. i have even tried to make one or two of their salads and they have become everyone's favourite too. I felt the products were a little high priced. there are many stores where you can get such products too
