The Marina Upper Deck remains one of our favourite rooftop cafes with a wondrous view of the sea, especially when the rain comes pouring down. You can get everything from the usual suspects, such as paneer tikka, galouti kebabs, tandoori chicken, calamari fish, garlic bread, Bombay masala french fries, and more. They’ve got continental as well as Asian food up for grabs.

Everyone in Mumbai by now knows SoHo House. After all, it's the paparazzi's favourite. While SoHo House may be a members-only space, Cecconi's, their classic Italian restaurant, is open to all.

If you're a fan of sea-side restaurants and Italian food makes your heart skip a beat, then there's no reason why you don't need to visit Cecconi's. Go here and make the most of their food and ambience, and don't forget to keep your cameras handy!

Set inside the Mahalaxmi Racecourse, Soraia feels less like a restaurant and more like a hidden European garden in the middle of the city. Designed by Gauri Khan, the space has both indoor and outdoor seating with glass walls, soft lighting, fountains, and tables under trees. It's Mumbai’s first glasshouse-style restaurant, which means you’re dining under the stars here!

Perched on top of the Four Seasons, AER is where outdoor dining meets skyline and uninterrupted seaview. This open-air rooftop bar offers views of the city lights, golden-hour sunsets, and the sea and just looks surreal. AER blends luxury with an unmistakable sense of escape. Come here for the sunset cocktails, but stay for the champagne, tapas, and DJ-led evenings.

There's very few outdoor restaurants in Mumbai that feel as timeless as Gallops. Located inside the Mahalaxmi Racecourse, this restaurant is known for its fairy-lit alfresco seating, views of the greens, and old-world charm. There's vintage furniture, beautiful chandeliers, and candlelit tables under the open sky. It’s the kind of place that makes even a regular dinner feel like a date night.

Out Of The Blue is one of Bandra’s most loved outdoor dining spots that's protected from the Mumbai rains. The alfresco seating is cosy, pet-friendly, and filled with people enjoying their time during weekend brunches thanks to live music. The menu consists of fondues, pizzas, sizzlers, and much more. The space is huge enough for hanging out with friends, or your family and your furry companion.

Bayroute’s NESCO outpost makes sure you enjoy their signature Middle Eastern cuisine while being in their beautifully designed outdoor garden setting. Their open-air space is calm, has a pool alongside, and is ideal for slow dinners away from the usual city chaos. There's soft lighting, greenery, and a refined ambience that you can enjoy while indulging in dishes like creamy hummus and pita, mezze platters, falafels, and kebabs.

No outdoor dining list in Mumbai is complete without Prithvi Cafe. It's inside the famous Prithvi Theatre and more of a garden cafe where time seems to slow down. Surrounded by trees and bamboo, it’s the kind of place where conversations stretch long after you've had your meal. The menu is simple but very much loved with parathas, chai, pasta, Kathi rolls, waffles, and classic desserts but the atmosphere is what keeps people coming back.
