No Cinderellas Here: These Affordable Bars Are Open Past Midnight
DIVE, BKC
A dependable favourite, DIVE's got amazing deals on drinks almost all day. Happy Hours end at 9 PM sharp, so we suggest heading here around 8, placing orders for the whole night, and then staying back until whenever. However, if you're in no mood to dance, steer clear during weekends!
What's Unmissable Here: The music. The deals!
Drink Up Until: 1:30 AM
Asiad, Vile Parle
Asiad is a small, unassuming bar at Irla. It's very, very affordable, and pretty much the average local bar with just drinks to offer. Go here in a group, and order the Chindian food.
What's Unmissable Here: The fact that it's open, and well, close to a lot of eateries (Papillon, Maruti Pav Bhaji, Anand Vada Pav!)
Drink Up Until: 2 AM
Shankari
This Juhu icon has no ambience to speak of, but we know it stays open till late. Head here when the only thing you're looking for is more booze... Even if you need to pick it up from here. Yup, they do that! *Wink*
What's Unmissable Here: The fact that it's open!
Drink Up Until: 2 AM
Bottles
This part of the 'burbs considers Bottles an icon. Head here for reasonably priced drinks, AC, and a separate smoking section, if that's what you're looking for!
What's Unmissable Here: The chakli + schezwan sauce.
Drink Up Until: 1:30 AM
Amrapali, Fort
This one's a favourite for everyone who works at Fort! It's got air conditioning, so it's a break from saste bars that don't have ACs. Order some masala papad, peanuts, and unwind!
What's Unmissable Here: The fact that it's close to your office.
Drink Up Until: 1:00 AM
MRP, Dadar
We are lowkey emotional about this one. Their happy hours literally spark joy, because the prices are just that low. Make your way here for the great music, and chill vibe. Happy Hours are until 9 PM, so order in advance and stick around!
What's Unmissable Here: They've got 5 shots at just INR 750. It's a steal!
Drink Up Until: 1:30 AM
