Kolkata is admired for its old-world charm. And retaining that charm within a modern setting is an art that can enchant every aesthete. Mud- The Retro Cafe in South Kolkata exactly does that. A run-down building has been transformed into this Instaworthy space that looks like a slice from the time when Kolkata was Calcutta. With antique wall clocks, a golden gramophone, mud plates, tall mirrors and more, the cafe holds a retro vibe, yet is strikingly contemporary.
Mud- The Retro Cafe: A Slice Of Old Calcutta
Located in the bustling Golpark area of Kolkata, Mud- The Retro Cafe is one-of-a-kind. Its decor will transport you back in time, and its cuisine can give you a world tour. Right outside the cafe lies a kicky taxi, iconic to the city of joy. Within the cafe, one can also find hurricane lamps, typical to every Bengali household. Every nook and corner of the cafe is an ode to the culturally rich, quaint world of Bengal. And on the table, it plates out delectable European dishes. Painted in warm yellow, the cafe makes itself one of the most photogenic spots in the city.
