What Makes It Awesome?

There's one legendary eatery in Bandra that thousands of Mumbaikars still swear by: Candies Bandra. It has made us wonder why it continues to garner such loyalty even when new options spring up every now and then? We tried to figure it out.

When one lands in this magnificent city, the pros will take you here, the newbies will tag along and even the ones who do not believe in the food will take you here. At least that's what happened to me! The indomitable magic of Candies Bandra. Although you’ll always find people trying to look for a place to sit in this restaurant, somehow or the other this Portuguese-style villa in Pali Hill seems to accommodate everyone.

The feeling of entering Candies Bandra is so homely. It exudes a quaint charm that makes it feel like a cosy hideaway. The branch at Pali Hill is our favourite. It has so much going on! While the outdoors have iconic blue and white walls, winding staircases, and multi-level terrace spaces, indoors include the ‘Room of Lamps’ showcasing beautiful Moroccan lamps and quirky furnishings. Every corner of Candies Cafe Bandra offers a unique piece of art that you'll want to look at more than once.

Cuisines & Must-Haves

When it comes to food, there’s a list of items on our must-try radar. Candies Cafe Bandra offers a mix of Continental, Indian, and Fusion cuisine. Expect everything on their menu from salads, rolls, and sandwiches to indulgent desserts, perfect for any time of day. Their soft Chicken Sandwiches, we’re told, vanish in the morning itself and you can see people ordering cold coffee throughout the day. Our favourites include Mutton Puff, Banana Pudding, Quiche, Chocolate Ganache, and Macaroni Salad.

Interestingly, people find Candies Bandra to be an ideal spot for a date. There’s so much to talk about and if it doesn’t work out, you can easily lose yourself in the staircase spiral. And of course, the discounts (Happy Hours) after 8pm don’t hurt, either. If you didn’t know it already, Candies Bandra offers its customers a whopping 50% discount on its anniversary on all food items you order. Their bakes are made fresh every morning, and people love working from here! The staff tell us there are people who religiously walk in, work here, every single day. So our local legend really accommodates EVERYONE.
