Visited the pub over the weekend as it was a long hot day and it is located quite near our apartment. It is a quaint Mangalore style building which must have been someone's home in the olden days. Now situated on one of the noisiest streets in Mangalore, it has been converted into a busy pub which offers seating inside as well as outside.

While I would have preferred a table outside, it was quite hot even after sundown and the traffic noise/ dust was too disturbing.

While the interior of the pub is air-conditioned, the comfort factor was reduced by the music which was being played at a very high volume. We got ourselves a table in the "jugli", which is how the first room (normally left open on the sides or protected with grills) would have been described in the olden days.

The table next to ours was soon occupied by a family comprising of an old couple, presumably their daughter and a grand daughter all of 10 years old. What the kid was doing in a pub escapes me, but she soon enough got busy with a video call on her mother's mobile phone and informed the world that she was at the beach ???

Having slaked our thirst on some chilled beer we also ordered some short eats including chicken nuggets/ fries etc. I had been hungering for a burger for some time and we decided to try out the chicken steak burger as listed in the menu. The burger was served with chips and a coleslaw salad. With reference to the burger, I have made better at home.

BTW the menu consists of a long list of items composed in about point 12 type printed onto foolscap sized sheets which are sandwiched under the glass on the table top. Considering my eyesight and the dim lighting in the pub I had to use my mobile phone torch to decipher the menu and order the drinks/ food.

The serving staff was too busy to actually do any serving at the table. The drinks/ food were just brought to the table and then we had to do the honours.

There is no parking available nearby the pub, especially for 4 wheelers. When we visited the pub around 8.00 PM we saw a row of scooters/ bikes parked impudently right under the no parking sign installed by the local administration in front of the pub. Maybe everyone was aware that the cops were also enjoying their weekend break.
