Poet Hospitality Group, Lahore, Pakistan.
Built for families, couples and corporate guests, delivering modern hospitality experiences with global standards.
One group, multiple experiences.
Poet Hospitality Group brings together restaurants, marquees, farmhouses, outdoor catering and event solutions under a single philosophy. We design rooms and experiences as carefully as we design plates and menus, and we measure success by how a guest feels at the close of the evening, not the start.
The group operates across two core campuses, Lake City Mall for the restaurant lines, and Al Shafi Farmhouse for weddings and large gatherings, with our catering and event planning team executing across Lahore at any venue our clients choose.
Everything we build is a long bet on Lahore as a destination for modern hospitality, and on Pakistan as a place where world-class hosting is a homegrown craft.
The people behind the group.
Aamer Rafique Qureshi
Aamer Rafique Qureshi has spent two decades shaping the hospitality landscape of Lahore. As Managing Partner of Poet Hospitality Group, he leads strategy across restaurants, marquees, farmhouses and outdoor catering, with a focus on building enduring brands rather than chasing trends.
As Chairman of the Pakistan Restaurants Unity Association, he advocates for higher industry standards on food safety, staff welfare and consumer protection. His view: the industry rises together or it doesn't rise.
Uzair Raoof
Uzair Raoof leads operations across Poet's boutique restaurant portfolio, where the bar for finish is set by the standards of the room rather than by the price point. He oversees menu architecture, service training and the seasonal pacing of the kitchens.
As Deputy Chairman of the Board of Governors at the University of Lahore, he brings an academic discipline to the business, viewing hospitality as a craft worth teaching, codifying and improving upon.
“To make Lahore the most quietly hosted city in the region. One room, one event, one guest at a time.”
