About this collection
The star of our bar program isn't a menu item; it's the tableside Martini trolley. We bring the mixing process directly to your table, allowing you to tweak the dilution and temperature exactly to your liking. It’s a bit of culinary theatre that turns a standard drink order into the highlight of your evening.
At Lupa, we treat the bar as a laboratory. Our bartenders don't just mix spirits; they balance European techniques with Bengaluru’s energy. Whether it’s a quick weekday refresher or a late-night session, our menu shifts with the seasons. We focus on the details—house-made tinctures, precise ice dilution, and glassware that feels right in your hand.
The Underground Wine Cellar
Twelve feet underground, our climate-controlled wine cellar houses 2,000+ bottles. It is a quiet escape from the bustle of MG Road, where you can book private tasting sessions guided by our sommelier. We focus on decoding the stories behind prestigious labels, making wine education approachable rather than stiff.
Why Our Bar is Different
- Tableside Theatre: We prioritize the ritual of the drink. Watching your cocktail being finished or mixed right at your table is part of the atmosphere.
- Seasonal Focus: We constantly rotate our ingredients to match the time of year, utilizing fruits and herbs when they are at their peak.
- Collaborative Spirits: We frequently host pop-ups and events with premium brands like Johnnie Walker, where we design specific tasting menus to showcase how spirits interact with food.
- Technique Driven: From the temperature of our glass to the quality of our ice, we obsess over the small things so that every sip remains crisp and flavourful until the very last drop.
Lupa
We built Lupa to feel like a slice of a Tuscan villa right here on MG Road. Our team is obsessed with the details, from our house-cured ingredients to the way we stir a Martini. We love a good vibe, great music, and even better drinks—come pull up a chair.
