    One of the best cafe’s I’ve been to in Khan market. Good ambience, different food and good drinks. Went early evening around 5-5:30pm. Very warm sitting area. They serve really good fushioned food (as I don’t remember the cuisine) They have a kind of terrace garden where you can smoke. They serve hookah as well. A nice place for couples or friends. Not a family place though. Not a part place either. But very comforting.

    Public Affair is indeed Khan Market's most stylish eatery and bar. This place serves the best Asian, European, Thai, Italian and Mexican, and the beverages are not to be missed. 🫶🏻 Some popular dishes include Chicken Mustard, Calamari Fritters, Vegetable Mezze Platters, Peri Peri Prawns, Mexican Platter, and Snapper.😋 If you plan to visit on the weekend, booking your table in advance is recommended. They also have a Lovely rooftop ambience which is perfect for romantic dining🤌🏻 So, what are you waiting for? Add this to your bucket list for the weekend with your loved ones 🥰

    Went here on a whim, when all the restaurants had a waiting for an hour or so and this specious place didn’t. What a saviour. 😬 Anyway, really enjoyed the ambience of this place and everything that we ordered. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, so that is a plus point. We had their very popular Mexican platter, which was huge and had quite a variety of things to try. We also ordered bubble tea and Monkey Gland cocktail. Both were good. Will definitely recommend this place if you’re in Khan Market.

    Great! We went here for bottomless brunch on our last day in Delhi. Khan Market was the nicest and cleanest area of Delhi we saw and we loved Public Affair. The upstairs seating area with the huge glass windows was beautiful, like an exotic greenhouse, but not too hot. The food and drinks were unlimited which was great, it was all very tasty. The mushroom dish was sticky and delicious and it was great to have fresh sushi. It got quite lively with a large group near us but we didn’t mind- staff were friendly and fun and helped with recommendations!

    The food here is so good. Udon noodles are a "must try". Interiors are pretty basic but the seating at terrace is amazing at night.

    Friendly Staff. Savannah was helpful, friendly and very efficient. 👍 Delectable food. The ratatouille garlic loaf, the Mexican platter and the cheese platter were awesome. 🤗 Tye Public Affair fruit punch pitcher was strong and flavoursome and came in a "vessel" fit for titans. ❤👑 The place had an easy going vibe. 🤟

    Slightly pricey but great service, ambience and food. All the cocktails with exotic names taste bad. Stick to the classics!. Flatbread was amazing

    I went to this restaurant in Khan Market on a weekday afternoon. It has an unassuming entrance. Chances are you might miss it but once you climb the steps it’s big enough. It has a smoking area also. Public Affair is famous for its cocktails and wide range of whiskey and wines. They do not have a wide variety of beers. We had two different type of cocktails. One was old maple fashioned and New Delhi sour. Both were decent. They have good potato wedges and some nice salads. We had burrata veg salad and it was fine. The truffle spaghetti was quite good and loved it. Overall a nice place but it’s expensive.

    My first time back after 4 years and there was no disputing what I was going to have first. The Whisky Sours in this place are off the hook. I'm in my happy place and loving it. ❤️ Don't forget to try their all you can eat and drink brunch. At Rps 1999 it would be rude not to. 😁

    About Public Affair This place is in centre of Khan market where you get to buy some clothes, shoes, earrings & other phone accessories ! How to reach there ? You can easily commute through metro ( if you don’t wish to go in cab or your own convenience). Take Violet Line and get off at Khan Market metro station, Gate No. 4 and it’s just on a walking distance from metro so you may easily switch on Google maps of this location or ask ! ( rely google maps & its quiet accurate) What you get there ? This location has a soothing/snack bar/coffee bar vibe during the day, and as it gets dark, it transforms into a darkish bar or restaurant. They feature a wide variety of items on their menu, from drinks to meals. Such as salads, appetisers, signature mains, asian, pasta, risotto,burgers, sandwiches & some of the deserts. Alongside wine and champagne, they also have vodka, malts, gin, rum, tequila, and other specialty drinks ( quiet a wide variety of it ) . Oh yeah along with some teas, detox juices and coffees. What we ordered for the table ? Since the bulk of us didn't drink that day, we began with a Mexican salad, tea, and espresso coffee shots ( surely give a try to that salad quiet refreshing subtracting the corn in it). Later, some sovereign wine with the main course ! In main course we had - ravioli with spinach and ricotta cheese filling and a tomato coulis ( Rating 10/10) - Mt. Fuji ( in a sushi way Rating 6/10) - Spaghetti with chili ( Rating 7/10) - Blueberry cheescake ( Rating 5/10) - Villa maria melot cabernet sauvignon 2018 ( no need to rate as you know how it really taste so upto you) - Mezze sharing platter ( 6/10) Overall experience of this place was pleasant and with friends it’s kinda chill. Seems a perfect fit for a date. The staff is courteous & well behaved. They also have a rooftop ( unfortunately I couldn’t go upstairs) ! Costing: if you are aware of Khan Market then you should know that it is overrated ( in lot of ways) so as this place. Food isn’t that really great but surely they have such ambience and such massive bar menu to keep up with their own cost. So to have decent amount of drink and food it’ll cost you 3-4k for 2 people or much more if you are boozing insanely! ( you shouldn’t). They accept all mode s of payment.

    The atmosphere is chic and inviting, with a perfect blend of modern elegance and cozy charm. The extensive drink menu offers a wide range of meticulously crafted cocktails, each a work of art in itself.

The attentive and friendly staff add to the overall experience, making you feel like a valued guest. Whether you're looking for a casual evening with friends or a memorable date night, this bar restaurant is the perfect destination to unwind, indulge, and create lasting memories.

  • 5/5 Namaste A. 10 months ago on Google
    A list of delicacies to count from the menu. On eating you will experience the effort being put in by the chef in every dish. Low on music, calm ambiance. Courteous staff. Nice seating arrangement. The food and drinks were unlimited which was great, it was all very tasty. The mushroom dish was sticky and delicious and it was great to have fresh sushi.

    Favourite (Vegetarian) Pizza! I recently discovered this amazing pizza with mushrooms and caramelised onions drizzled with truffle oil… absolutely delicious. A little expensive… but perfect during a crave 🤤

  • 4/5 Charit K. 1 year ago on Google
    Located in Khan Market, has a small open space too on the top floor. Not wheelchair friendly. Good music, good vibes. Must try the Teppanyaki food.

  • 5/5 todd c. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the Chicken pad Thai. Most places I have to have a bite of chicken each time to keep the flavor, but with Public affair each bite was perfect even at the end. Perfect carmelization of the noodles.

  • 4/5 Nikita G. 1 year ago on Google
    Overall ambience was good. Food was also tasty and the portion size was good.

  • 2/5 Jobe P. 2 years ago on Google
    Not that great a place in terms of dine in... Service was fine, not a great sitting as the initial table we were given had wobbly high chairs. Later we were moved to the 2nd floor as it had the smoking zone as that's what we preferred. Food was not that great in terms of pricing and quantity. Way too expensive and way too less. Had ordered Persian kababs and I got just 3 pieces and on the menu it stated 595/-... Also ordered a vegetarian pizza on the recommendation of the host waitress but it didn't turn out to be that great as it was little sweet. Drinks were fine. Made me think twice of coming here a next time. Would only recommend this place only if one wants to splurge on nothing worth it...I would rather save it.

  • 3/5 Aham C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nothing special. Some nice cocktails, food is mediocre. First level is too dimly-lit, second level is cramped. Good service though

  • 4/5 Akhil M. 2 years ago on Google
    A wide selection of cocktails, I tried whiskey sour and it was delicious. Flatbread was pretty good too. Only qualm I have is that neither do they print the price of hookah on menu nor do they tell it to customers even on asking. Would certainly come again for the drinks and food, but I would take a pass on Rs 1900 hookah.
