The original, and undisputed king of all the Watson’s, the pub at Skywalk on Assaye Road has it all. Good cocktails, cold beer, bar nibbles ranging from chicken tikka and masala peanuts to kathi rolls and pizza, and of course that rock music. But it’s all made infinitely better by the views of a prettier side of Bangalore. The Madras Sappers headquarters ensures greenery below you like a soft blanket, and just further is Ulsoor lake. Trees, lakes and a breeze — exactly what Bangalore used to be, and luckily in parts, still is.
