Lahore’s café culture has been evolving rapidly over the past few years, offering a diverse range of establishments, from minimalist coffee corners to floral cafés, book nooks, board-game hangouts, concept stores, and much more.
But now and then, a place comes along that genuinely stands out—not because it’s trying too hard, but because it understands what people really want: a space that feels warm, layered, personal, and creatively alive. That’s exactly what Trio By Maham brings to the table.
In our video, we explore Trio—a unique three-in-one creative space that merges books, flowers, and food under one roof, but with an innovative touch to it. And guess what? It has its own robot, Miss Robot. It's not just a machine, but it serves you food and brings you flowers when you ask.
From what we explored, it’s not just a café, not just a flower shop, and not just a reading space. It’s all of those things combined, designed to cater to different moods, different people, and different moments of the day. Whether you’re someone who finds comfort in the smell of fresh pages, someone who feels alive around flowers, or someone who believes food tastes better in a thoughtfully designed space, Trio has something to offer.
In this video, we take you inside the café to discover how the idea was born, what inspired the founder, Maham Qasim, and how they manage to keep three distinct creative elements running side by side.
“I think every girl wants this. Even with my sisters — one wants a flower bouquet, I want a coffee, the other wants a book — so we would go to all these different places. I just wanted to mix it,” Maham tells Nukta.
From cozy reading corners lined with books to the floral studio bursting with color and fragrance, and finally the café serving meals and coffee, every corner has a story. And we capture it all.
“It’s a place for couples, especially, where they can get flowers and books and have a nice date. For single girls, to just be able to get a flower cup, be greeted by a rose, and then look around for books. [It is] a nice coffee place, and if [the customers] want food, they get a nice, fine-dining experience,” Maham added.
We celebrate Lahore’s ever-growing café scene and how it continues to reinvent itself. Trio stands out not because it’s trendy, but because it understands what makes a space memorable: intention, detail, and heart.
While talking about Miss Robot, Maham stated, “We wanted to bring innovation to Lahore, and this was the only thing missing.”
Whether you’re a Lahore local, a visitor, or just someone who loves discovering creative spots, this place deserves a spot on your must-visit list.
