Restaurant

The Bombay Canteen

Lower Parel and Worli, Mumbai, India

A modern Indian restaurant that reworks regional recipes from across the country with seasonal produce, backed by its own cocktail programme.

Our take

The Bombay Canteen keeps its kitchen and bar open until 1:30am every day, which makes it useful for a later dinner after work or a show. The menu travels across India's regions rather than sticking to one cuisine, and the 'Make Mine A Bombay' cocktail programme gives the bar its own identity. Reservations are taken over WhatsApp.
