The bar is situated just off 12th Main on 100Ft.Road. It is on the 4th Floor and the entrance is via the back of the building and one has to negotiate their way around the various crates of liquor that is stacked for the bar. There are no sign boards directing you to this entrance and you will have to ask your way to the entrance.
The bar counter is in the center of the room. There are a number of bean bags strewn around to make yourself comfortable. It is air-conditioned and there are a couple of closed rooms wherein a group of 10-15 can have fun in private. It is dimly lit and one may have a problem in verifying the bill. There are a number of LCD TVs all around the place and a projector screen showing sports channels.
The acoustics suck. Fridays are karaoke nights - a nice thing to have and there are a number of crooners who try and belt out love songs. In the absence of the crooners, a DJ plays music (mostly retro pop and rock and some contemporary popular numbers) and unmindful of the smoking ban in restaurants and bars smokes continuously. The management also turns a blind eye to this.
The snacks that go with the drinks cost between INR 130 and INR 250. You can not get the usual 'masala peanuts' or chips. We ordered what was supposed to be nachos (served with melted cheese and vegetables) - these certainly were not corn chips! & cost INR 200/-. the menu also included biryanis (including a jack fruit biryani) a number of Indian and continental main courses and a number of kebabs - both veg and non veg.
We went for a 3.5 lit draught beer that comes in a dispenser - more because it was quite unique. This 3.5 lit of draught costs INR 850/-. 1 litre of draught is available for INR 250/-.
It takes some time before you are able to catch the eye of the waiters who are busy chatting among themselves. After multiple attempts we had to complain to the manager who then dispersed the waiters to all corners of the bar and the service improved since.
I'll go there again to taste the jack fruit biryani.
Reco - there is nothing special about this place - you can probably go as a large group - watch IPL matches - guzzle on the 3.5lit draught beer for the experience - try to overlook the bad service and the smoking DJ.

you might be satisfied with the ambience but the place sucks.... Firstly the managers are not the nice one's... You don;t have anyone to make you comfortable at the place. You should'nt be happty with the 350 unlimited offer cos after soon as the time is up you are kickecd out. they don care if you are done or not! I hate the place and the beer, cocktails.
Overall - I hate the place. It sucks.
