Delhi over the years has really emerged as the gastronomical capital of India. With more and more eating joints and pub/lounge bars opening in Delhi, it surely has given consumers lots of options to choose from. In recent months, CP alone has at least couple of new bars and some more are in pipeline.Lounge bars in delhi over the years have grown significantly and now you can find them in most of the upmarket areas. Lounge bars in delhi are places where people enjoy drinks after their work along with great food. Here is the list of some of the places which according to me serve excellent cocktails along with finger foods.
Monkey Bar – It is, undoubtedly one of the finest places for chillax over a cocktail or beer. This place is considered as one of the best bars in Delhi. Situated in Vasant Vihar and Connaught place, it is also famous for lip smacking and mind blowing food. I would highly recommend this place for its amazing cocktails - especially Shazia Imli and Dublin dram. Hard Rock Café – The famous HRC that has created a wave, when it opened in Delhi, is known for their 10oz burger and it is also famous for its extra ordinary LIIT. This place certainly serves one of the finest LIIT in town. My recommendations for LIIT are Long Caribbean Iced Tea, Channel Island Iced Tea, Raspberry Iced Tea, Boston Iced Tea and Texas Iced Tea.Indigo Deli – Without a doubt, Indigo Deli serves the best sangria in town. If you are a sangria lover and want to enjoy the famous wafer thin pizza of indigo deli and relish it with sangria t- You must visit Indigo Deli that is located in Ambience mall, vasant kunj.Wok in the cloud - One of my favorite casual dining place that again serves excellent cocktails like The Malt Apricot Sour( whisky sour made out of single malt), The WITC Bellini( a luxurious interpretation of classical Italian drink), and The Lychee Daiquiri(refreshing version of classic daiquiri)Hauz Khas Social – HauzKhas Social is another interesting concept which is the brainchild of Riyaz Amlani. In evening, it turns into a pub and during day time it provides space for freelancers for utilizing the space for free usage of wi-fi and it also has conference room and printer –everything at a very nominal price and that too is redeemable. They also have some very interesting drinks which you will love and off course the food here is also great. Hauz Khas social has its own version of LIIT that you will love - i.e Electric and Toxic.
Farzi Café – Any list of bars/lounge bars in Delhi is incomplete without the mention of Farzi café. They have amazing drinks which is amalgamation of technology (molecular gastronomy) mixed with some local ingredients. Farzi Apple Foamintini and Santa Banta are two of their famous cocktails.
