Lucknow’s Bar Stock Exchange turns 1 on Sept 4: Here's what's coming up

Already a year?! Time flies faster when you’re sipping your favourite cocktail at The Bar Stock Exchange. TBSE, Lucknow’s stock-market-themed pub, has clocked one year of pouring pints, serving plates, and lifting spirits in every sense. To mark the occasion, and for the very first time, The Original Note Band will take over the stage, bringing a mesmerising Sufi night to toast BSE’s anniversary on September 4. The fun starts at 8 pm, read on to know more.

If you’ve missed the memo, here’s a quick recap. At BSE, the price of your drink changes in real time based on demand – it’s the Sensex for spirits. One moment you’re bagging a whisky at “lower circuit”, the next your beer might be in “bull run” territory. Prices flash across giant LED screens, making happy hour feel like insider trading without the jail time.

Sure, BSE is known for its ever-changing drinks menu, but the food deserves its own mention. From Chinese to Italian and North Indian classics, it’s all laid out under one menu. Hungry souls can pair everything from crispy appetisers to hearty mains with their tipple of choice. And if your heart says “cocktail”, the bar’s mixology menu will happily play cupid, especially with Sufi music weaving through the air, setting the mood for a perfect night.

BSE has managed to do what many bars attempt but few nail. A vibe that’s upscale yet unpretentious. Whether you are a lone wolf nursing a whiskey while chatting with the bartenders or a group looking for pre-dinner banter, you will never feel out of place here. And that explains why it’s become one of Lucknow’s most consistently popular watering holes so quickly.

Anniversary nights like these are bound to pack the house. So book your table ASAP at The Bar Stock Exchange for an enchanting Sufi night on September 4. For more updates, follow TBSE on Instagram.
