Empire Bar — Restaurant in Kolkata

Me and my friends used to visit this place very often because it was our go to place for 2 years, but our recent visit was extremely dissapointing and annoying. This never happened before until today. We ordered 6 glasses of 60 ml old monk and a single glass of 60 ml McDowell. When we recieved the bill at first the total amount was not adding up and making sense to us because we already knew our budget. Then we noticed that they charged us for 8 60 ml old monks. We noticed and asked at the counter that the amount was not right and they should give us the right bill. The guy at the counter started talking to us rudely and asked us how it is adding up to 6 glasses. They created a whole scene and as we were a bit tipsy and it was late they asked us to pay for 7 glasses. We paid for 7 glasses and decided to get out. This was very unfair. Money is not something you get for free, you earn it. Paying for things you've not even ordered and also being talked rudely when asked for clarification is simply not fair.

As they are the employees, they're the one responsible for keeping tabs of our bills not us. They should be more responsible and honest towards their customers. Being a long time customer this was a horrible experience and if this dishonesty continues they'll lose all their...

It looks like a cafe but a very small bar situated on the drive through of Chowringee. Just couple minutes walking distance from Rabindra Sarobar Merto Station and 5 minutes from Nandan.

When I first visited 3 years ago it used to be a very vibrant place. This place is divided into 2 parts. The ground floor can accommodate 20 people easily but too small. The walls are well painted and decorated. The 1st floor is same but with more privacy.

Now the service has deteriorated. Most of the beers were not available. When ordered food they asked to wait for 20 minutes. Then after waiting for 30 minutes they asked us cancel the order since they won't be able to serve. So. WOW. Where were we. They opened a bar but without food.

In terms of atmosphere and ambience, it's very claustrophobic.

Can't give them...

Visited this place yesterday. The bar itself has a nice retro look. The ambience was quite nice though the sitting area was a bit cramped up. The bar had a variety of drinks available, ranging from beer, vodka, rum, whiskey, gin all if which were priced decently. The drinks start at around ₹40/-. A pint of beer generally starts from ₹200 onwards. The services were quick and the staff behavior was good. Definitely would recommend the place for budget friendly booze. Pocket pinch (approx. for 2 ppl) :...
