Malls are for much more than shopping; they’re about a larger experience, and before they were a dime a dozen in the national capital, Ambience Mall, Gurgaon understood this. It affords window-shoppers, movie-goers and food-lovers all the space to indulge in the almost forgotten art of mall-going.
What To Bookmark At Ambience Mall, Gurgaon
Shortcut
Blu-O, Am I Right?
You’d have probably celebrated {or been invited for} quite a few birthdays at the arcade back in the day, and it’s time you go back to Blu-O. If not for the bowling, go for the nostalgia, the karaoke and the food.
As a bonus, it now has a tattoo studio as well, so this time, you can make those memories permanent!
Tummy Tales
Masterchef Jamie Oliver recently decided to open a pizzeria in Ambience Mall, and, honestly, it’s definitely worth the trip. Don’t forget to try the sorbets before you shop off some of those calories. If pizza is not your thing, that’s cool; Ambience Mall has it all—desi khaana, burgers, pretty pastries and more ice cream than you could eat.
Old-School
While malls have branched out to cater to various leisure interests over the last decade, it all began with shopping. Ambience Mall has a huge selection of stores, including favourites likes Zara, Mango and Marks & Spencer. If you’re thinking more offbeat, we recommend a trip to Gipsy for their swanky pyajamas and printed palazzos.
Apart from the usual fare, Ambience has also brought the likes of Sephora, Hunkemöller and H&M to Gurgaon, so whatever you’re looking for, there’s a good chance you’ll find it here.
iSkate, You Skate
Ambience Mall, Gurgaon is equipped with an ice-skating rink on the sixth floor, which is always a fun new thing to try. Whether you’re just starting to get comfy on the ice or are a seasoned skater, it’ll probably be a few hours before you want to leave. Fair warning: There might be a few bumps {and bruises} along the way!
Plus there’s all the other good stuff to check out, like massage chairs, gelato and movies. After all these years, a day at Ambience, Gurgaon is still a day well spent, we’d say!
