Millennials — Restaurant in Bengaluru

Millenials is a new pub, adding to the list of never ending hangout spots opening up in JP Nagar. While the place looks unassuming from the outside, it is quite spacious enough to accommodate many people, and is spread over two floors. It is very close to Vega City Mall, which makes it an ideal destination to chill out after hours of exhausting shopping. SHORT REVIEW: While the prices are a bit on the higher side, this place does provide offers and special discounts based on the day and time, so you can visit it as per your convenience. They also have standup comedy and other shows happening regularly. On the food and drinks front, there are absolutely no complaints, and the service is top-notch.

MUST TRY: Baked Alaska, Bartenders Special, B-Joy, Crispy Beetroot Puri, Pan Seared Basa

DETAILED REVIEW: I went to this place on a weekday evening alongside a friend of mine. Both of us were quite hungry and thirsty, so we ordered a lot of items. Here are some of the items we tried. Bitter Coupette – While the bartender did warn me that this drink would be quite bitter, I decided to go ahead nonetheless, as I love bitter stuff. I thoroughly enjoyed the drink, and if you like bitter stuff, this one’s for you! B-Joy – The name of this drink is inspired by the mixologist himself (Bijoy) who came up with this special concoction. It is quite refreshing and has a unique taste. Death Rabbit – This again is a drink with a bitter aftertaste, so you may want to keep that in mind while ordering. Initial flavours however are sweetish-sour. Flashback – This vodka based drink has notes of peach and orange, and is a very fruity drink which you can gulp down with ease. Bartender’s Special – I don’t quite remember the exact name of this drink, but boy oh boy, it’s a spectacle alright! You need to be seated at the bar counter for this drink that’s sure to knock you out of your senses. Three drinks, one helmet and a few knocks on your head – the perfect recipe to get knocked out! Ask the waiter for more details on this, as I don’t want to spoil the fun for you. Crispy Beetroot Puri – This was something unique, wherein the dish looked like a golgappa but was filled with a creamy beetroot sauce. Crunchy and tasty, a great way to cleanse your palate as you sip on the cocktails. Crispy Chilly Fish – Although the taste was quite good, it was a bit too salty, probably a minor mistake from the kitchen side. However, this is a great accompaniment for beers, and the quantity is decent as well. Corn Chops – This was one dish that failed to impress in terms of taste, although the presentation was top notch! Communicated my feedback to the staff, who were more than willing to listen and make amends! Egg Drop Soup – Nothing too fancy although the name might suggest so. However, the soup is definitely a comfort food. As a Chinese soup, it is slightly on the bland side, so you may want to inform the waiter in advance if you wish to have it made spicier. Pan Seared Basa – This was the highlight of the night for me. There were two huge fillets of basa, which was quite well marinated. This is a rarity, as most places serve bland, unmarinated basa. The orange carrot puree is so divine that I ended up asking for some more of the puree. And the portion size of the mashed potato! OMG! It was soooo much! And the taste was amazing as well, one of the best mashed potatoes I’ve had in Bangalore. Quite cheesy and creamy! 10/10 for the complete dish, which is a meal in itself! Baked Alaska – This is a unique dessert where whipped cream is flambeed to give a caramel-ey feeling, somewhat akin to roasted marshmallows. Haven’t found a similar dessert served anywhere else. OVERALL VERDICT: Definitely worth visiting if you’re around JP Nagar, much much better than Uuru and some other pubs around the area. Only downside is that the prices are a bit higher compared to other pubs, but the quality is there...

This place is ideally located bang opposite to Vega city city and is a perfect place to unwind and relax post the shopping spree!

The Ambience is extremely funky and chik, spotted with graffiti paints and comfortable chairs. They also this little cabins which doubles up as comfy indoor seatings , very well done ambience 😍 kudos to the designers team out there.

Coming to the F&B, they serve an array of cocktails/beers and a good cover up of continental fusion food. I tried few of the dishes and cocktails out there and I was completely impressed with the taste, quality and service.

Started off with

1. butter chicken nachos: crunchy crispy house made nachos topped with creamy butter chicken, tangy salsa,and a dollop of sour cheesy cream . This is a must must try out here!!

2. prawn Tom yum: loved the generous helping of prawns in the soup.

3. cheesy panner: extremely soft and suttle panner chunks grilled well with cheese, loved this started as well. Very hearty and filling.

4. avocado and beetroot Puri: this was something fusion, puchkas loaded with tangy filling and topped with avocado and beetroot curds. Lovely burst of flavours in the mouth .

5. pad Thai noodles: very well done, another classic which one can try .

6. dates and toffee pudding: yummy, loved this dessert the date pudding was extremely soft and fluffy and well done .

All of this was accompanied by some cocktails Here are my recommendations

1. doctor syringe: it's like a deconstructed yet fancy looking shot .

2. blue frog: a real good refreshing,sweet fizzy cocktail.

3. Roman empire: another great cocktail loved it.

4. Russian mafia: it's like a shot series, highly potent one .

The service was prompt and the waiters made sure to pay attention ,. The manager Mr Pradip did a really good job by attending to every table personally which is preety rare to find...

Another add on to JP Nagar.

This place will offer you some good food and drinks along with good ambiance. A place which you can visit with friends and family. A good range of menu which offers Indian and Continental with their twist.

So, what did I eat ??

Let's start with the drinks. I had the Dr Syringe which had Vodka and Gin along with Green chilli and sweet and sour syrup. This drink was light with the taste of spice, sweet and sour. A good in taste and great looking drink. Recommended.

I also tried the Millennials on Fire. An amazing looking drink and the way it was presented, it was amazing. This drink had Vodka and Brandy along with Pineapple Juice. Very appealing to eyes. Give it a try.

For food, we had Crispy Avacado and Crispy Beetroot Puri. A healthy twist to the Pani Puri. The taste was amazing, fresh and one of my favourites for sure. The Puri's were filled with salsa and topped with Beetroot and Avocado Curd

Also, giving a healthy twist to chat was Muesli Chat. A healthier version to Bhel Puri which was made of Muesli. A great accompany with drinks 😃

Pan seared Sea Bass for Mains was good. The orange and carrot sauce was something new. It was a little sweet but went well with the fish. The fish just melted into my mouth. The mashed potato served with it was creamy and tasted really good.

In Desserts we tried the Dates and Toffee Pudding which was again amazing taste. The sweetness was perfect for my taste as it was not extremely sweet. A good desert to end the meal.

A very cordial staff.

A great place to spend...
