The F.R.I.E.N.D.S Cafe isn't exactly Central Perk but it is the first one that takes after the theme of the show in India. 

Here are 5 characteristics of the show that you will find in the cafe that is sure to make you nostalgic!

The purple and green doors: Remember Monica Geller's apartment door with the empty golden yellow picture frame around the peep hole? You will now find it in the cafe in the City of Joy. It also houses Joey and Chandler's green apartment door with number '19' on it.

Ross Geller’s Sandwich: The cafe's menu offers its take on the famous turkey sandwich that cost Ross his beloved job at the museum when he found out that his colleague had not just taken it from the fridge but had thrown most of it away!

The 'ugly' porcelain dog: Monica refused to take the porcelain 'ugly' dog when Chandler was moving in with her in the later seasons.

The famous Central Perk orange couch and green armchair: If someone asks you to name three locations that appear the most on the show, they would be, Joey and Chandler's apartment, Monica and Rachel's apartment, and the Central Perk couch. You can now 'feel' like the F.R.I.E.N.D.S gang and spend hours, day after day on the couch.
