Leopold’s Café
Love it or hate it, most tourists end up at this Mumbai travellers’ institution at one time or another. Around since 1871, Leopold’s has wobbly ceiling fans, open-plan seating and a rambunctious atmosphere conducive to swapping tales with random strangers. Although there’s a huge menu, the lazy evening beers are the real draw.

National Centre for the Performing Arts
Spanning 800 sq metres, this cultural centre is the hub of Mumbai’s music, theatre and dance scene. In any given week, it might host Marathi theatre, poetry readings and art exhibitions, Bihari dance troupes, ensembles from Europe or Indian classical music. The Experimental Theatre occasionally has English-language plays. Many performances are free. The box office ( [tel] 22824567; open 9am to 7pm) is at the end of NCPA Marg.

Shiro
No lounge anywhere has ambience as soothing as Shiro’s. Water pours from the hands of towering Balinese stone goddesses into lotus ponds, which reflect shimmering light on the walls. Lighting is soft and dramatic, with lots of candles (and good Japanese food).

Café Universal
A little bit of France near CST. The Universal has an art nouveau look to it, with butterscotch-colour walls, a wood-beam ceiling and lots of windows, and is a comfy, pretty place for happy hour.

Toto’s Garage
Forget the beautiful people. Toto’s is a local joint where you can go in your dirty clothes, drink beer and listen to ’80s music with the locals. Get there early or you won’t get a seat.

Enigma
For Bollywood star-spotting, Enigma is the place. It doesn’t get going till after midnight, but then it really gets going. The couples cover is Rs1000.

Kamat Sweets & Snacks
It’s just tea, sweets and snacks and it’s small and cramped, but we just can’t resist the retro vibe – or the cold coffee with ice cream (Rs38).
