“Where can I get good biryani near me?” and “a quiet café for work in Jamshedpur” are exactly the kinds of questions people now ask ChatGPT. The food and drink section of the Business Hub list is the largest, with more than a hundred categories, so choosing precisely makes a real difference.
Below are all 122 Restaurants, Cafés & Food categories from the complete ChatGPT Business Hub category list, with tips for choosing the right one and examples for Indian businesses.
This list reflects the categories reported in ChatGPT Business Hub in November 2026, during the beta. OpenAI may add, rename or remove categories, so always confirm the options in your own Business Hub dashboard.

How to choose the right category
- Choose the cuisine-specific category when you have one: Indian Restaurant, Chinese Restaurant, Pizza Restaurant or Vegetarian Restaurant is more useful than a generic label.
- If you are mainly a dessert, bakery or café business, pick that (Bakery, Cake Shop, Café, Dessert Shop) rather than Restaurant.
- Cloud kitchens and delivery-only brands usually fit Meal Delivery Service or Meal Takeaway.
- Caterers and personal chefs have their own categories. Use them if events and private orders are most of your work.
- Keep your menu, timings and delivery areas consistent on your website, Google, Zomato and Swiggy so AI assistants see the same facts everywhere.
Examples for Indian businesses
- A North Indian family restaurant → Indian Restaurant or Family Restaurant
- A cake and pastry shop → Cake Shop or Pastry Shop
- A cloud kitchen → Meal Delivery Service
- A wedding caterer → Caterer
- A juice and smoothie bar → Juice Shop or Smoothie Shop
