Insider scoop: Lucknow’s premium restobar Distillery set to reopen this November-end!

Lucknow’s nightlife scene might just get its long-awaited revival! As per reports from vendors and restaurant workers, Distillery, the city’s iconic premium restobar, is gearing up to reopen its doors by the end of November 2025 — just in time for the year-end party season.

A comeback that’s been brewing for a while

If you’ve driven past Summit recently, chances are you’ve noticed some serious renovation activity. Word has it that work is being carried out at a record pace to get Distillery back in shape — interiors being revamped, new setups being installed, and the old charm being reignited.

Launched back in 2021, Distillery quickly became one of Lucknow’s most happening spots, known for its premium service, innovative cocktails, and top-notch food. The restobar’s vibe and music made it a go-to for everyone looking for a fine night out — from weekend regulars to visiting celebs.

What went wrong — and what’s changing

The popular restobar abruptly shut down last year following a tussle with Summit officials, reportedly due to crowd management issues and growing concerns about unruly gatherings in the building. Since then, the space has been lying dormant — until now.

But insiders suggest that this reopening marks a fresh start — with tighter management, revamped operations, and a renewed focus on creating a premium, safe, and exclusive experience for Lucknow’s partygoers.

Knock Knock

Over the last few months, Lucknow’s nightlife landscape has seen several popular hubs shutting shop, sparking conversations about whether the city’s party culture was losing its spark.

However, the revival of Distillery could very well be the symbolic comeback the city needed — a reminder that Lucknow’s party scene isn’t dead yet, it’s just getting ready for a stronger, classier reboot.

So, if all goes as planned, Lucknowites might just be raising their glasses again at Distillery — and soon.
