THIS IS DROPOUT CHAIWALA

From the bustling streets of India to the heart of Australia, Dropout Chaiwala is rewriting the chai story. As Australia's first authentic chai store and the fastest-growing chai chain in ANZ, we're on a mission to bring you the flavors of home with a twist of bold innovation.

MEET OUR FOUNDER
A dreamer, a migrant, and a chai enthusiast who dared to follow his passion. Leaving behind the familiar streets of India, he dropped out to chase a bold vision: bringing un-authentic, unforgettable chai to the heart of Australia.
What started as a simple love for chai has grown into Australia’s first un-authentic chai store and a movement that’s redefining how chai is experienced.
This isn’t just a story about chai. It’s a story about courage, culture, and creating a taste of home, one cup at a time.
