Experts' Choice Award Leopold Cafe
What the experts agree on
Leopold Café is the iconic Mumbai hangout for travelers seeking late-night eats and vibrant atmosphere over culinary excellence. Skip the Italian; Chinese dishes like chili chicken are the standout, though prices run high for what you get.
“Surprisingly, the Chinese food is actually the better bet: the beef with chili peppers can't be beat, and the chicken-fried rice and the chili chicken are highly recommended.”
– Fodor's
Frommer's "Okay, so this is pretty much the quintessential tourist eatery, these days known as much for the buzzy atmosphere as it is as the first choice for fans of the David Gregory Roberts novel, Shantaram." Full review
Rough Guide "Leopold’s is the number-one hangout for India-weary Western travellers, who continue to cram onto its small tables for bland, overpriced Indian, Continental and Chinese tourist around food."
National Geographic "A city institution since 1871, the Leopold Cafe was one of the targets of the city's 2008 terrorist attacks. It's since come to be a symbol of defiance and cherished by most Mumbaikars."
