byLupaLUPA at MG Road, BengaluruView full gallery

From the streets of Mexico to Rajputana palaces, we turn Lupa into a portal for global flavours 🌍. Come experience our limited-run collaborations and themed nights before they vanish ⏳.

Announcing my pop-up with Mezcalita, Bombay's beloved Cantina. This collage captures the spirit of the event, a collision of Mexican culture and Bengaluru's energy for a Cinco de Mayo fiesta.

The vibes have been updated. This bright, graphic poster for the "Cinco on with Don" event with Mezcalita was designed to be a sign you couldn't miss.

The exclusive menu for our Lupa x Mezcalita pop-up. We featured authentic Mexican dishes like Mole, Carnitas Tacos, and Tetelas, creating a menu that was a journey through Mexico's soul.

Vibe check? A playful graphic from our Mexican pop-up, using trendy slang to build excitement and connect with our audience.

"Hincar el Diente," meaning "to sink one's teeth into." I love using these fun, thematic graphics to explain the food culture behind our pop-up events.

"Calentar la Silla," or "warming the chair." A playful invitation for our guests to settle in, order the whole menu, and make themselves at home during our pop-up.

"Darse un Atracón," meaning "to stuff oneself." At my pop-ups, I encourage guests to indulge and enjoy every bite without judgment.

About this collection

When we host a Mexican fiesta or a Rajputana dinner, we change everything, including the menu, the cocktails, the music, and the decor, so you feel like you have stepped out of Bengaluru entirely. These are not standard service nights. We craft these pop-ups to be one-off, immersive experiences, so if you see a collaboration that catches your eye, reach out early before the spots fill up 🤌🏾.

We are obsessed with keeping our kitchen alive with fresh energy. That is why we do not believe in static dining. Whether it is flying in a cantina vibe from Bombay with Mezcalita or working with local craft spirits like Godawan for a Rajputana-inspired winter evening, these collaborations are our way of breaking the routine.

Why these pop-ups matter

It is about education and excitement. You get to taste techniques that would not normally fit a standard menu. We have done scented menus, custom-designed ceramic mugs for tequila nights, and even immersive parades inside the restaurant.

What to expect at Lupa pop-ups

  • Limited Runs: These events are usually exclusive to 2-3 nights only.
  • Total Immersion: We do not just swap the food. We curate the soundtrack, the lighting, and even the table settings to suit the specific theme.
  • Collaborative Spirits: Our bar team often pairs up with guest mixologists to create exclusive cocktail lists that you will never see again.
  • Booking: Since these are high-demand events with limited seating, we always suggest keeping an eye on our event calendar or dropping us a message to get on the priority list.

Whether you are looking for a wild themed party or a quiet, high-end guest chef dinner, our pop-up calendar is where the magic happens 🌟.

Lupa

LUPA at MG Road, BengaluruStarting ₹5,000 Per Person

We are the team behind Lupa, and for us, this is not just a restaurant. It is a Tuscan villa in the heart of Bengaluru where we jam, experiment, and host. My chefs and I get bored easily, which is why we are always cooking up something wild, from unexpected guest chef takeovers to themed festive parties. You are always invited to pull up a chair, have a drink, and experience the chaos.
