Bombay Daak

Really nice place with a great concept. The cocktails were good. Food was nice but since they have the chakna concept, nothing feels heavy enough for a full meal. The vibe is really good and the music makes it even better. Highly recommend visiting.

Always the best time here. The birds eye chilli wine is to die for. It’s a drink that doesn’t hit you instantly but grows on you slowly giving you the best trip ever. Combine that with the bombil fry and you’re golden. Also recommend Desi for all the whiskey lovers out there and Pahadi if you’re looking for something light and refreshing. Music is top notch old school Bollywood obviously. The rabbit and tangra town wontons are a delight to your taste buds. To end with dessert, go for the Feni Cashew ice cream; don’t second thought it.

Big fan of Chef Niyati, so this visit was long overdue! I’d built up an image of Bombay Daak in my head over time—and while it turned out different, it definitely didn’t disappoint. The vibe? Unmatched. Think indie-retro bar with killer music. Cocktails weren’t quite my jam (a bit on the savoury side), but they pack a boozy punch—so no complaints there. The chakna? Quirky, creative, and fun—exactly what you’d hope for. Pricing is little on the higher side, but it’s justifiable for the service & quality Food was spot on. Flavorful, comforting Already planning my next visit.

EXPERIENCE! Thats all i would say about this place. Its a bloody experience. The food, the staff, the drinks everything is just an experience. Would suggest to sit at the bar top and watch your drink be made! Tell Saumit and Prakash your poison and they will make the best cocktail you have ever tasted!!! Thank you guys for the experience 🫡

Has the best night at Bombay Daak. The birdseye chili wine and Santra were delicious. As was the Pork and Smoke, Duck Puff and watermelon rind achaar. Can't wait for my next visit! Highly recommend

My fav cocktail bar in Bombay for sure! Every visit feels very memorable! The finding fenny cocktail is a must try. The heart the team adds is reflected through their food, drinks and service. Also shoutout to Glen who made sure me and my friends had an absolute blast! Whenever you are visiting go say hi to him because he is an absolute delight to talk to! A must visit for sure.

Where do I even begin? The vibe, obviously. Imagine a dive bar, but it decided to clean up its act and look classy for once. That’s Bombay Daak. I’m a sucker for dive bars, and this one just gets it. Dark, moody, but still modern enough to make you go “okay, this is cool.” And the music, oh the music. In true Bangalore fashion, they dropped “Santhoshake,” that was it. I was emotionally invested. Now the food, let me tell you, they had me at Shikaar Ka Achaar. Rabbit preserve in some mango-pickle-style masala, served with pav. I’m not exaggerating when I say I could eat that every day and still not get bored. The rest of the food was great too, but that rabbit? Unreal. And then came Whistle Podu, a gin-based rasam cocktail. I know, sounds like chaos in a glass, but it worked. Refreshing, a little spicy, and very “what the hell, why is this so good?” kind of moment. Service? Quick, friendly, and totally on point. In short, go to Bombay Daak. Eat, drink, vibe. Thank me later (preferably with a Whistle Podu in hand).

The space transitions beautifully and is definitely a highlight of the experience at Bombay Daak. The sun roof, the all glass facade, adds a wonderful charm to the cosy space. The open kitchen also made 10/10 would recommend if you’re feeling a bit bougie and want to impress your date. It’s tucked away enough for it to be a discovery, but also buzzing to not feel like you’re the only people to discover it- a balance that’s so rare. We ordered quite a few things from the menu, but the highlight of it all were two things: the Pork & Smoke, which was the best thing I’ve tried in a while. Really smoky, succulent, meal-in-your-mouth bits of pork belly, over a mash, and layered with spices, herbs, a little bits of funk. So, so satisfying. If you eat pork, don’t miss it! The other highlight was the Rasam inspired cocktail- blew our collective socks off. Such a refined cocktail, and so seasonable. Despite the impressive technique, it didn’t feel over intellectual and genuinely had a rasam after taste. The rest was fine, nothing to write home about. But definitely worth frequent visits (if you can get a spot!)
