Life is hectic. Now we say this because sometimes in the hodge-podge of going to the office, handling all your responsibilities, making sure everything falls in place, taking care of people and foremost yourself, everything becomes exceptionally challenging. In the midst of it all, hanging out with your friends, enjoying a few drinks and simply “chilling” often becomes the only thing close to a ‘break’, we can ever hope for.
If you have been longing to steal a precious few seconds away from the daily hustle, chilling in a luxurious bar is the only way to do it. So, here’s our pick of top bars in Lucknow, which you can visit to do the aforementioned ‘chilling’.

Molecule is undisputedly the biggest bar and gastronomic extravaganza in Lucknow. The bar has an expansive property, with three separate seating areas, a smoke zone, dance floor and a kids play section, it is by-far the most equipped bar we have come across in Lucknow. You would especially love the craft cocktails and the food that is focused on molecular gastronomy.
The Cairo Tales

This Egyptian themed bar is a one of a kind in Lucknow. The decor and the interiors here are heavily inspired by the Egyptian culture and we have to say, mummies on the walls and Pharos watching us with folded arms, add a mysterious and eerie vibe to this place and it is uber cool. Gulp down your drinks like a real king and groove to electric tunes at Cairo Tales.
Barcelos- Sangria Bar

Barcelos has recently launched its very own full bar section, the Sangria Bar and we have been smitten ever since. The bar offers some of the most amazing drinks you’ll taste and the whole aesthetic is pretty chill. Though, we know Barcelos for the food they serve, believe us the drinks are no less. You could have all the booze that you want and then order a half pounder chicken and demolish it too. Well, we love the prospect!
Mocha Cafe and Bar

Mocha is our absolute best when it comes to delicious pastas and big juicy burgers and we cannot deny the ambiance is pretty chill too. We love everything here, from the vibe to the outdoor seating, the freakshakes, and the booze. We especially love the booze here. Try the ‘Khamba’, the shots tray and the various kinds of LIIT here, there pretty darn amazing!
Munick Bistro and Bar

Munick is Lucknow’s very first Bavarian bistro and bar. Known for its rustic yet chic ambiance, the wonderful woodwork and the classic double storeyed bar setup, Munick is a favourite drinks after work joint for Lucknowites. We would recommend getting a few beers for the gang and catching up on all that you’ve been through and done. Also, the pasta here is pretty darn good.
Percussion

How can a list like this be complete without mentioning Percussion, the granddaddy of all the pubs and bars in town! We absolutely adore the bar and the amazing offers that keep coming! Percussion has been an all time favourite of Lucknowites and there is no way we can get enough of it!
Royal Sky

Royal Sky is a legend of an outlet. The bar and eatery is located in the heart of the city, the location makes it Royal Sky the perfect late night hangout joint. You could be driving around through the beautiful roads of Hazratganj and then simply hop on to Royal Sky and have a few drinks, eat some delicious food and call it a day. The fact that Royal Sky has a rooftop seating only adds to the whole allure.
The Flying Saucer Cafe

The Flying Saucer Cafe in Lucknow boasts of having the biggest the longest bar in not just Lucknow but the entire state of Uttar Pradesh. The bar has chic interiors, is beautifully illuminated with over a hundred of tungsten bulbs. The vibe here is pretty chill and we would suggest you try the classic North Indian dishes along with any number of alcoholic beverages.
Scott and a Barrel

Lucknow’s very own Scottish bar is the best place to get blinding drunk. The exposed brick walls, barrelled ceilings and leather furniture make the bar as rustic and swanky as you can imagine. Scott and a Barrel should be on top of your bar crawl list because of the ambiance, the foot-tapping music and the live band performances.
So gather the gang or the few best pals and head to any one of the aforementioned places to have a gala time.
