My Story
15 years back, Urban Solace was just a wild dream—now, it’s kinda like a second home for so many. We built this spot in Bangalore for artists, poets, comedians, thinkers, bookworms—basically, anyone who needs a place to be real. Our Tuesdays with the Bard poetry thing, it’s legendary, but honestly? The best bits are the nervous poets, the crazy laughter, the quiet book chats. This place has a soul ‘cause of you all. Welcome home, yaara.
