The establishment was first opened in 1927 by the two [[Switzerland|Swiss]] business partners Joseph Flury and Quinto Cinzio Trinca. The name was at the beginning ''Flury & Trinca''. The partnership lasted until 1939, when it was dissolved for unknown reasons. Cinzio Trinca opened another tea room called ''Trincas'', located diagonally opposite Flurys at 17 Park Street. Ten years later, in 1965, Joseph Flury wanted to return to Switzerland, so he sold his tea room to Jit Paul, who had started the Park Hotel across the street by then.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Kumar |first1=Karo Christine |title=The story that connects Trincas and Flurys on Park Street |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/my-kolkata/places/the-origins-of-trincas-heritage-restaurant-and-flurys-tearoom-on-park-street-kolkata/cid/1871292 |website=The Telegraph |access-date=12 February 2026}}</ref> Paul intergrated Flurys in the Kolkata-based [[Apeejay Surrendra Group]], a conglomerate founded by his father.<ref>{{cite web |title=A man and his street - Jit Paul ( April 1, 1923-June 3, 2009) |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/west-bengal/a-man-and-his-street-jit-paul-april-1-1923-june-3-2009/cid/1265669 |website=The Telegraph Online |access-date=13 February 2026 |date=4 June 2009}}</ref><br />
