Monkey Bar, India’s first and most beloved gastropub, is in the heart of New Delhi with a brand-new space that promises to redefine the city’s food, drink, and entertainment landscape. As India’s first gastropub, Monkey Bar has always been a trailblazer, setting trends and pushing boundaries.

Located in an iconic glass pyramid structure in Vasant Kunj, Monkey Bar offers cuisine and drink connoisseurs a refined dining experience. The inventive menu, enticing atmosphere, and dedication to quality and freshness of Monkey Bar make for an excellent amazing experience in eating and drinking.
The architectural direction of Monkey Bar has transformed the area into an ‘Urban Tropical Dreamscape’. With its expansive bar and lush green planters, the new Monkey Bar boasts a contemporary and welcoming ambience. The place has bright, sunny, and inviting colours that are flooded with natural light from the pyramid. This is a change from the former darker, more evening-focused atmosphere, making Monkey Bar a daytime destination. Imagine a lively combination of colours, including oranges, yellows, sage greens, pigeon blue, and lots of white. These colours are enhanced by prints and textures to create a welcoming and interesting atmosphere.

The colour scheme brings in natural light, and the bar’s flashing monkey screens give it a lively appearance and make it one of the most Instagrammable areas of the space. There are tons of fascinating places in Monkey Bar Delhi, ideal for getting great photos with pals. You can enjoy a game of pool with your buddies, use the bright yellow banana tub for vibrant group shots, and lounge on a banana sofa with a hilarious neon caption. The place has a fun, monkey-like vibe!

Monkey Bar’s menu has always been a highlight, offering a delightful mix of comfort food, innovative twists, and global flavours. The menu starts with a wonderful selection of salads, including Puy Lentil Salad and Barley & Pomegranate Salad. The small plates section has deep-fried anchovy, Sahuji Mutton Roll, Curry Leaf Wings, Coconut Buff and more.
The selection of flatbreads showcases a variety of flavours like Harissa Chicken & Salami and Wild Mushrooms & Baby Mozzarella. Other standout dishes on the menu are the Juicy Lucy Burger, which has lamb patties infused with garlic and rosemary, and the Prawns Kheema Pao, which is made with house-made East Indian bottle masala and served with buttered pav. Indulge in The Monkey Bar Monkey dessert, a clever take on the traditional Snickers bar.
The menu also features unique items, such as the fragrant methi-spiced Prawns gently seasoned with fenugreek, dabeli bursting with spicy potato stuffing, and Jackfruit Tacos providing a distinct vegetarian taste. The place also offers a new coffee program with a diverse selection of high-quality brews.

Taste some recently added drinks to the menu, such as Down & Dirty, which combines sugar, gin, chardonnay, lime, and Indian gooseberry pickle with other ingredients to create a sinister drink. Try the Manga Mule, a concoction of green mango murabba, vodka, lime, ginger ale, and desi marmalade. One of the distinctive cocktails we provide is called Rasam ki Kasam, which is tequila infused with curry and made with crystal lime, and rasam water.
For those who don’t drink, there are Zero Proof drinks including Sorbet Tonic, which combines passion fruit skin shrub, passion sorbet, and tonic water; Barley & Tonic, which combines house-roasted barley and vanilla tea, and Shrub & Tonic, which combines strawberry & mint shrub with tonic water.
