Life in Mumbai is a roller-coaster journey filled with fair shares of thrill and boredom. And in this path, you are likely to find a soulmate who is Sev to your Puri,
Farsan to your Misal or a Chai to your Coffee. While the toll of everyday hustle might bog you down, meeting your partner after a rough day is probably the most beautiful time of a day in Mumbai.
The roads feel empty and people less grumpy, a crowded local suddenly becomes your happy spot, and amidst this euphoria, your tummies need some pampering!
While Mumbai has some of the finest romantic restaurants, there are some that won’t make a hole in your pocket!
So come, let's take a look at them.
This open-air cafe is located in Juhu and is a melting pot for theatre enthusiasts. When you enter you will see the place bustling with enthusiasm and candid conversations happening everywhere.
The scattered seating arrangement, warm lights, the canopy of trees above, and occasional appearance of famous stage artists makes this place one of the most happening cafes in the suburban Mumbai.
You are not likely to find a quiet spot since the place is mostly full of people, but you will have a great time with your partner especially because of the vibe and the food.
