    This place is all about the vibe. May be a little too famous for its crowd, it runs subtle on the weekdays, jamming on the weekends. Music is dwelling, food is delicious, do order tacos and your fav cocktail. Small in area but great when it gets partying.

    The place is really pretty ,somehow they always run out of your favourite beers during a gig. It's kind of uncool to see how you have no choice but to take what's available. Bonobo you can do better than this. About time you start stocking up!

    An open air place with a dance floor and a chill vibe. Sunday Sundowners are very popular here. Worth a visit.

    Situated at Bandra Linking Road, just behind KFC building. Lane that leads to this place is bit shady. Open air bar where you can sit and chill with friends. Menu is very limited. I'm a wine person and they just had one brand of wine in red and white both. Food is also average. You can just go to this place without any expectations.

    Experience was a nice mellow time. With good jaaz music and some relishing food. Their Pork Garlic Chilly Fry is a bomb!

    One of the best clubs recently visited. The club has all , open terrace , Big bar counter and dance floor. However, the price seemed quite high. Only Trance music was played on the day I visited, which I don't like much. Crowd was awesome.

    Bonobo is a pub located in Bandra which has been there for quite sometime now.Its open space is good and decent for seating area and has a dance floor inside. They have good weekly events happening throughout the week with live music and party music.Overall a good vibe to hangout and enjoy on the weekend with friends.

    Place has a great vibe, drinks are good, polite and courteous waiters. however DJ was mediocre, food is just ok .. and biggest let down is this place has not restricted smokers to a designated point, hence people smoke anywhere and everywhere and this place turns into a gas chamber. If you are a non smoker, you will not survive after 2 hrs. My wife suffered and vowed not to return.

  • 5/5 Desmond D. 5 months ago on Google
    Lovely vibes make this place a good start before you head out. It has a dance floor. An exciting collection of spirits but the food is amazing. Great selection, lovely taste and quite hearty. The service here is impressive, attention to detail, remembers your orders and make sure you feel welcome. Great ambience and some cracking music sets the tone for the evening.

  • 4/5 Aman O. 1 year ago on Google
    Great vibe but the bartender tried charging us for large drinks without asking us. Otherwise a great place with amazing music and ambience

  • 5/5 Tyehimba T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great live music (on some days). Great atmosphere. Sometimes feel like you’re not in Bombay

  • 5/5 Nikhil G. 3 years ago on Google
    Bonobo is your quintessential neighborhood bar. On trend with music, art and culture, the place has a great alco-bev selection and friendly staff. I'd recommend it to everyone. Some interesting bar snacks on offer as well.

  • 3/5 Gunjan S. 5 months ago on Google
    Came here on Monday night and was very dead. I think we chose the wrong day. Locating the place is a task as u have to go into small allies and ask so many people to locate the bar. Situated on the second floor there is a dirty lift which is quite scary. It's a roof top set up quite popular with college goers and tourist people. We ordered fries and momos which were decent. since there were only two tables full service was fast. There was a 99 rs drink offer that was ongoing so it was very economical. If u r nearby and looking for an affordable place then go for it

  • 5/5 Harsh V. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely rooftop bar with a nice dance floor. You can always find nice Techno here over the weekends 💯🔥

  • 5/5 M B. 7 months ago on Google
    Bonobo is a casual vibing kinda place. Good people and good music. Fridays and Saturdays are perfect to visit this place. One of the few places in Bombay that doesn't play Bollywood so thank God!

  • 2/5 Krishna R. 1 year ago on Google
    Alcohol had very strong spirit essence and made the cocktail taste unbearable, ambience definitely was nice!

  • 4/5 Ankit G. 9 months ago on Google
    Great place to visit over weekend. Music is good, quality of food is okay. Since its filled fully over weekend, table might be difficult and service will take some time. Food quality definitely can definitely get better. Ample options for alcohols, good options are okay too.

  • 5/5 Angad K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot for good drinks, great company and beats. Tends to get crowded but always a good option for a laid back evening with friends.

  • 5/5 vic s. 6 months ago on Google
    Excellent place to go on a Wednesday when they have live curated music nights. Really good. Fridays and Saturdays are packed but good smart filtered crowd. Though it's a covered terrace it has a nice vibe to it. Can get hot and could do with better air conditioning. Reserving a table earlier may help.The drinks menu is alright but limited. The food menu is also limited but good. The entry point to Bonobo is a little obscure and the small elevator may set the alarm bells off but there is another way out from Bonobo. In case you need to exit fast - the stairs next to the loo and their kitchen. Just in case of a crisis. Hopefully someday someone will clean up the stairs of the garbage left behind the shops in the building. But still usable.

  • 2/5 Archit K. 1 year ago on Google
    Overpriced and not value for money. Ambiance is not that great, also the nearby locality it too crowded. Absolutely no parking available, even if you get, it will be at a far away location. There is a lift to go up, so you can have handicapped person easily transported.

  • 5/5 Ekta G. 10 months ago on Google
    I went with my friends for night out. Ambiance is good . Food ,drink service is very good and quick. Place all most full. Live music is there. You need to book in advance.

  • 5/5 DonD M. 7 months ago on Google
    Great roof top bar. With fabtastic cocktails. Nice and chilled out Tuesday drink. Was busy for a weekday night. Definitely would recommend

  • 4/5 Sumit P. 9 months ago on Google
    So this place has good vibe but keep in mind stag always face issues so be mindful. Also it get crowded so go early or book table prior.

  • 4/5 prem al m. 11 months ago on Google
    Good vibes Good music Good company Sitting is good However can get hot in the summers Tried 6 different cocktails non of them tasted like they had alcohol in them Very very watered down The watermelon cocktail was still considerably a “cocktail” rest of them felt like a mocktail Beer is a safe bet Stag entries can be painful

  • 5/5 Sivabalan T. 10 months ago on Google
    The food and drinks were very good. The teriyaki taco was phenomenal, , the drinks were customized to our taste and it was very good. Vibrant crowd, unassuming place and felt one can relax and chill and let oneself go.. Service was quick and prompt, felt good to be in an atmosphere like this one..

  • 5/5 Naveen A. 4 years ago on Google
    best place to dance

  • 2/5 Tejal D. 3 years ago on Google
    Place is quite ok but the access is horrible. Decent crowd tho'

  • 4/5 Charles K. 4 years ago on Google
    A hidden gem in the city. The crowd is definitely on the trendy edge with some decent international participation. Last night was a live DJ from the states playing a set of ragga infused hip hop with electronipop. The bar is open air, with cool mushroom 'umbrellas' and fans all over the walls. There's a wide variety of drink options minus beer (there were only 3 choices, not local) Yes, they have table service, with food available. Access is via an elevator with steps both before and after landing. Smoking is allowed there.

  • 4/5 Sar H. 6 years ago on Google
    Cool place to hang out or listen to music. The food was good too. The sound system could be improved though and don't plan to spend all night there because it closes at 1 am.

  • 5/5 Shivani D. 3 years ago on Google
    Love the vibe of the place. Hidden gem.

  • 3/5 Mo B. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place for an after work chill evening, with or without friends (they accommodate both well). Food and alcohol are not a problem although I think there's scope for them to up their music game. Service was nice and the staff was cordial and alert. Kudos!

  • 4/5 Prathamesh P. 4 years ago on Google
    One of my favourite places in Bandra to hang with my loved ones. I don't know but somewhere it is losing it's charm. I have been visiting this place for years now, growing up with it ahha. Good gigs! Open space, also an inside dance area. Friendly staff :) cheers!

  • 5/5 Sunita D. 4 years ago on Google
    I have been bonobo several times and I love this place. Food is good, they have a separate dance area and open area to chill and hangout. It does get crowded towards midnight but still lot of fun Food- **** Drinks- **** Ambience- ***** Type of crowd-***** Price- $$$

  • 4/5 chandrashekhar k. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice place to chill. Very courteous staff. Wonderful service. One can enjoy the food and drink under the sky, literally with moon and shining stars.

  • 5/5 Mangesh P. 3 years ago on Google
    nice

  • 4/5 Prathyusha K. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Himanshu M. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Karn B. 4 years ago on Google
    Always the best!

  • 4/5 Surround S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great vibes! A wonderful place for drinks and even food. Try the Char Siu stir fry if you are up for some heat and wash it all down with some New England IPA. Super outdoor seating and a great place to get some live music!

  • 4/5 Naina M. 2 years ago on Google
    For my friends and I this is a fun place to start the night. We aren't big fans of the music they play here and even though there's a dancefloor inside, no one really dances. But the food and drinks are nice and the vibe is always good

  • 4/5 Aaron P. 1 year ago on Google
    A bit on the expensive side but a nice place. Cocktails over get a plain rum and coke (works out cheaper) although the first mojito was nice the second one was more lemon and the third one had neither lemon nor alcohol. Food is great. Ambience is the scene! Dance and chill and overall good time. Dj played a nice set. A bit on the techno side for a while but it clears up.

  • 2/5 Mateusz R. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely things used to be better at this place. And it was a long time ago. Now it is a place that is running on its former glory. And 1 am curfew when people are literally not-so-kindly asked to leave is a dealbreaker. I know it is India. And Maharashtra. But at least it could be done gentler.

  • 5/5 Anna M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great bar and such good music! They invite such great musicians and they have a really great ambience. Came here with a lot of friends and we had the best time. Their food is really tasty and I've always enjoyed whenever I came here.

  • 3/5 Marcelino G. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty cool place to hang out. It's got many things going for it the decor, the people it attracts, every tonic that would send you to the moon and back. One thing is that the place was unpuntual. My first visit to it was for a Jazz night, it was suppose to start at 9pm but it winded up starting an hour & a half later. A few friends left because of this because they cloud only stay till 11:30pm.

  • 4/5 Dr Devina M. 1 year ago on Google
    Bonobo has been around for a while! Their staff and service are their plus. They have two bars!!! That’s speaks a lot about how busy they are as a joint. It’s incredible how their tiny kitchen churns to serve their guests well. It’s right there for you to see all the chefs and sous chefs at work. Woohoo. Congratulations and thank you for your service.

  • 5/5 Pragya G. 1 year ago on Google
    Bonobo is a mix of chill vibes and an amazing mixed crowd full of adventures and conversations. This is one place which allows the ragers as well as the mellow vibers to come together and enjoy their own type of energy. Overall, amazing.
