Eating at the youthful and grungy Khar Social

Khar Social ticks the boxes for a young, innovative, pulsating eatery with a dramatic under construction look. An all day cafe and eatery, with services from 9:00 am to 1:00 am all days of the week, with a designated workspace concept, it qualifies for a charming idea.





The restaurant is sprawled over two floors. Each floor has a distinct character. The ground floor harbours a colourful skate area that converts into a beanbag sit out in the evening. It also has an open to sky sitting, decorated with suspended bamboo framework, punctuated with planters and hanging lights. The outdoor sitting transits into an enclosed air-conditioned sitting area, experimental and unorthodox in aura. A bright bar area, lounged out sitting with unconventional mix-match chairs and sofas, with ample sunlight flowing in, this space spells freedom. 







The spirit that caught my design-dependent senses is the upper floor workspace. Winding metal staircase, sharp graffiti, unusual combination of sofas and swings, ceiling-strung power plugs to service every work table, with an avant-garde coffee house feel, this is a place fit for group meetings or a quiet work day with yourself. 







An eatery experience is complete only after the food talk. Unconventional menu design, inventive serving plates, cocktail-mocktail glasses and a considerate pricing make for a tempting go at the food. I tried a couple of munchies and drinks. The serve of the 'Lantern' cocktail and spiral, double grilled cheese toast was fun. My friend who tried the substantial 'Achari Basa' and 'The Schizophrenia' gives his thumbs up too.






Khar Social, like all the other Socials in Mumbai, has a multiple food choices ranging from American, Mediterranean and Asian cuisines. Having had a fun time at this grungy, hip eatery and being well looked after by the smiling staff, I am tempted to soon give a try to the other Social at Palladium, to experience their tap beer and burgers. No wonder the end of a good experience is always the beginning of another and the greed-dice rolls on.

  2. Never knew of this lovely place since called Khar Social. The elucidation of the place itself invites the readers to pay a visit. Beautiful pictures compliment the introduction of the place very nicely. The menu seems to be quite tempting too. Worth a visit for sure.
