We Lucknowites sure know how to party hard. However, often times, it is wiser to take a break from loud music and busting a move, and just sit, relax and have meaningful conversations over a drink. Very few bars in Lucknow cater to that sort of a vibe and crowd, which is why we were over the moon when we discovered Dante Bar & Kitchen at Comfort Inn hotel.
The embodiment of a classy, bluesy bar, Dante offers an upmarket experience, unlike any another in town. With a distinguished feel and an upmarket ambience, this is a classy bar with soft electronic and hints of indie and jazz music playing ambiently. Such a vibe is hard to find in town, and we’re glad we came across Dante Bar & Kitchen, right here in Lucknow.
Make memories over drinks
Much like Dante’s “Divine Comedy”, which is a vision of humanity’s fate, this bar presents itself as a class apart, thinker, and conversational space. Taking a step away from the jam-packed, DJ dominated spaces in Lucknow, this bar is a place where you come to breathe, and soak in conversations over a few drinks. Speaking of drinks, they have mega happy hours every day from 1 PM to 8 PM.
With plush seating, a simplistic, pastel colour scheme, nothing about this place is loud or crass. It all comes across as easy going, smooth and comfortable, which is more than we can say for other places that serve drinks in town.
In fact, this is a great place to come over to even during the day. The music is always ambient and lively, and manages to get you in the zone. Pair that up with some delicious cocktails and mocktails, and you’ve got a memorable experience that you’ll keep coming back to.
During the nights, the lights are dazzling, and the ambience is augmented in the moonlight. However, the main charm lies during the afternoon to evening period, as the sun sets over the bar. Speaking of the bar, it is well stocked with over 10 beer brands, all kinds of Single Malt, Scotch, Bourbon and a smattering of other drinks.
If you’re interested in catching the sun go down over a couple of drinks, you would be delighted to know that there’s a sizeable terrace area. In fact, this area is also where they have occasional live performances. It carries forward the theme of the space, and has ample seating to cater to your entire friend group.
Perfect lunch date space
There are few places in Lucknow that capture the beauty of noon like Dante. If you’re looking for a light drink and sumptuous food, Dante has got you covered. They have an impressive food menu, even during lunch hours, ranging from Indian to Continental, making this the perfect spot for a lively, lunch date with your better half.
Everything- from the lush sofas, to the classy ambience goes hand in hand with top notch service, making for pleasant dining experiences throughout the day. The best part is that they have a slew of lunch offers on the cards, and all the food offerings here are lip-smacking to say the least.
So what we’re trying to say is…
As far as chill drinking spots in Lucknow go, there are very few of them, and Dante aims to bring about a new era of nightlife. With an impeccable vibe, and unmatched ambience, this is a place where you can let your hair down in a very different way. In fact, it is also one of the best places to be at for lunch, making it a great all round space.
