    This is one of my favourite hang out place. The good, the vibe.. Everything is just great. Even though the price is higher according to the servings but i love the vibe of the place, also they have the best playlists! Music is great. They have outdoor ( so beautiful) and indoor sitting. I love the outdoor one during winters but currently as it is hot i prefer sitting inside. 1) Stuffed mushroom- 5/10 ( I had it after really amazing pizza so in comparison to that it tasted a little bland) 2) Tomato, fetta cheese one pizza- 10/10 ( loved the crust and the topings , so fressshhh, yummm) 3) Veg spring rolls - 10/10 ( Serving is very less but tastes so good so had to give it a 10 but because of less serving probably 7/10) 4) Mixed sauce penne pasta- 7/10 ( I've had better) I always have a great time at this place❤️

    Its an open roof cafe nestled in SDA complex and is easily locatable. I liked the breezy and offbeat ambience possesing the old world charm. Coming back to food mushroom jalapeno thin crust pizza was cooked to perfection. Asian bowl had hakka noodles, cottage cheese with hot & sour sauce, was little bit on spicier side but delectable. Oh how can i miss to mention the soulful playlist which set the mood just right.

    The staff is super hostile, they keep on wandering around your table for no good reason and keep on creating unnecessary eye contact all the time They just want you to keep ordering and won’t let you sip your beer for more than 10mins! Super irritating activity it is!

    Amazing vibe, aesthetic decor and delicious meals. We ordered mocktails, brownie shake, corn kabeb and hakka noodles. Everything was delicious. Its also has Live performances in the evening that you can check. Will definitely recommend this place for friends, family, dates and solo as well.

    These two stars are only for the service I was given by the people attending me there. If that was fine, I would have given 4 stars. This is a place given a rustic feel. You have large outside seating and a little inside seating is also available. Live music in this place was nice. The dim lighting that went from one wall to the other at the outside just set the right mood. Special note for the people there. If I give x amount of money then you need to give me back the entire change. Telling me that I give you the exact amount cause you don't have change isn't something I am looking forward to hear from anyone for that matter. You need to get into a small gully to get into this place. I wouldn't say it's the best place to be in but certainly not a bad deal.

    It was the first time i visited (peer pressure) 😂 and I personally didn’t like the vibe and place as the music was too loud, outside sitting was better than inside but still not satisfied. Live music was also not up to the mark. Less options in food but chicken tikka is good. Must try SANTRA BOMB/ GIN STRAWBERRY BOMB. Lastly, prefer to visit on saturday(better live music). ✌🏼

    Fun place to hang around with friends in NCR. Place is bit hard to find as its tucked in a corner but once you find the place its really great place to enjoy snacks, drinks, and live music. If you are lucky and get seating outside then you would really enjoy the ambiance and lively atmosphere. There is small inside seating. I would sit their only if I want to have a quite intimate conversation. Outside seating area is great. Live singer was nice and was engaging the crowd to keep the atmosphere lively. They have fun appetizers but staff doesn't seem trained in selling the food and suggesting items when asked. Food we tried was ok but when you are drinking and having fun with friends you don't pay too much attention to taste. If management can train the staff a bit and improve quality of food this would easily be a 5 star place.

    Okay so I went here seeing the reviews of other people and may be theirs will be right by my experience was bad very bad. Food-. (0/5) I orders 2 dishes and two drinks Butter chicken maggie (0/0) - I love to try new things out and tried this one and i can tell you it was bad. First the chicken was not that greatly cooked and one can easily tell it was old chicken from the sheer taste of it Chilly chicken (1/5) - same story with this chicken not properly cooked, very very chewy they also didn't offer any chutney with it, I asked the waiter for it. Virgin sangria (4/5) - this was the only good thing and it was properly presented too. Ruhafza sharbat (2/5)- It was so sweet what can i say my mother makes more good roohafza than this. Mind you i love sugary drinks and this is coming from a person who loves to take extra sugar in tea Ambience (5/5) - the only thing which this Cafe scores full point is in its location and ambience. Quite screne open yard , coverd with trees. Thats the best thing about this place.

    This place does not need a review really. It’s one of the most awesome and chilled out place in NCR. With one of the most Awesome crowd and good live music. The first time I was here was when a couple of friends kidnapped me on my birthday and got us here. By the time the evening got over we were partying with complete bunch of strangers but happy and cheerful strangers. The food is decent and average but as the singer just announced I’m his cute Dilli wala accent- फ़ालतू बातों पर focus मत करो - शराबें पियो”. So basically long story short - this is a place to come and have fun with your friends and loved ones and live in the moment. Come on when you are thirsty - not hungry.

On Monday's you'll find the amazing live singer namely 'Kabeer' who will just make sure to set the mood for the evening just perfect for everyone with his songs! A must visit place with your friends or a date for sure! An amazing experience!

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting a wonderful cafe and bar, and I must say it was an incredible experience. From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the inviting ambiance and stylish decor. The place had a cozy and relaxed atmosphere that immediately made me feel at ease. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who went above and beyond to ensure a memorable visit. They were knowledgeable about the menu, provided recommendations, and promptly catered to any requests. Now, let's talk about the beverages. The cafe and bar offered an impressive selection of drinks, ranging from classic cocktails to craft beers and unique mocktails. Every sip was a delight, with expertly crafted flavors and beautiful presentations. The attention to detail in the drink preparations was evident and greatly appreciated. What made this cafe and bar truly special was the quality of their food offerings. The menu featured a diverse range of appetizers, main courses, and delectable desserts. Each dish was prepared with care, using fresh ingredients and innovative flavor combinations. I was genuinely impressed by the culinary creativity and the impeccable taste of the dishes. Lastly, I want to mention the overall vibe of the place. The cafe and bar had a vibrant and welcoming energy, attracting a diverse crowd of patrons. It was a perfect spot for socializing, whether with friends or meeting new people. The lively atmosphere, coupled with great music, created a fantastic ambiance that added to the overall enjoyment. I highly recommend this cafe and bar to anyone looking for a memorable dining and drinking experience. The combination of exceptional service, delicious beverages, delectable food, and a fantastic atmosphere make it a standout destination. I can't wait to visit again soon!

    Very beautiful and decent place where you can spend moments with your loved ones. This cafe is just few meters far from hauz khas metro station.some items was good and some was average. You can go directly and book your table or you can do it online. Average cost for two people is 2500 rupees.

    I went on Friday evening when it was almost empty outside and later got fully packed because of live music. The staff is great, the place has beautiful vibe. The live music was outstanding. But the prices are too high for the quality. The peanut masala was good but the nacho chips topped with chicken was hopeless. It felt just chips, boiled chicken ans cheese sauce. No other ingredients like beans, sour cream, guacamole etc was added. A very little amount of salsa was served with it. The serving dish was not appropriate. The chips were sliding whenever we tried to pick them. In cocktail Margharita was hopeless. I had to order beer in which the cheapest was 335. Go for good time and music and vibe but food i won't recommend

    Food is tasty but a bit pricey for the quantity they offer. Except that, it is a good place to hang out especially at night with the live music.

    If you're looking for a place where good music meets an unbeatable atmosphere, Nukkad cafe is the ultimate destination. Nestled in an open area, this restaurant offers live music every day, creating an infectious vibe that keeps me coming back for more. While the food might not be exceptional, the overall experience is unparalleled and leaves me feeling energized and alive.

    My first visit with friends. This cafe is located in SDA market in a 'nukkad'. You may find difficult to find in first time. Quite liked it! We visited in the day time on Sunday, so the outside ambience may look more beautiful and pleasant in the evening. But since the weather was cool, we liked siting outside. They have limited menu. We ordered veg and non veg starters with drinks and all items tasted good! Prices were also fine as compared to other cafe's and also considering the location. Definitely plan for a next visit.

    Located in SDA, Nukkad Cafe And Bar is a cute little place to enjoy your time with friends with Live music in the background. Food tastes OK and the service is also nice. Try their Dahi ke Kebab, Palak Patta Chat, Lahsooni Chicken Tikka and Mutton Guloti Burger. Cost is ₹1,500 for two (approx.) with alcohol.

  • 5/5 Sumanjit D. 10 months ago on Google
    Visited Nukkad cafe recently located in SDA market near IIT Metro station, really had a great experience. The atmosphere in the outdoor setting was awesome, with a good crowd and vibrant music. I really enjoyed the snacks and drinks. I tried Chicken lolypop, Nachos with loads of cheese, Bhatti chicken was really delicious and their Pizza, really mouth slithering. Do visit after 7 PM to enjoy the Live music. Cheers 🍻

  • 5/5 Himanshu S. 6 months ago on Google
    It's a lovely 😍 chill out vibe cafe with outdoor sitting and dim lights in evening. Live music in evening is also nice there. There is indoor sitting arrangements too and music was also not too high for the ears. Food is good just the service needs more improvement. It's location justify the name hehe 😜, a little difficult to find at first 😅

    In this cafe the live music play which is the best part of the cafe also the food was good and the atmosphere is very cozy here. You can outdoor and indoor sitting area. Make sure to place beforehand to avoid waiting on weekend

  • 3/5 Food D. 4 months ago on Google
    It’s a small cute cafe in SDA market. Seating is ok. Live music was average. Not a very lively cafe though. We had peach iced tea was good. Then had lachha parantha, naan, paneer. Food was ok sorta. Lachha parantha was nice. Shahi paneer was good with big pieces. Idli chaat was average. Idli was crispy. It has more papris and curd. It was a boring chaat., Peri peri Maggi was not good at all. Rs 225 a plate. It wasn’t spicy at all. Music was good. There were 5-6 options for momos. Cutting chai was for Rs 135/- Overall average.

    This is a good place to enjoy with friends. We went as a group of 6 friends and found the place bustling and happening (it was a Friday evening). The decor is laid back, chilled out and rustic which adds to its charm. Seating is available inside (air-conditioned, small, few tables) as well as outside (spacious, lots of fans, not a problem except in humid weather). While the food is okay (certain dishes were good, some were passable), it could be better. There was live music (Bollywood and Sufi) planned that evening but we couldn't stay that long, so I'm planning to check it out on another visit.

    Wonderful place to hang out with friends(could be a cool hub/adda).. live music artists are too good and entertaining. The food is great,prices are the usuals. You might have to wait for your turn to get inside during night time or rush hours.

  • 5/5 Gunjan M. 1 year ago on Google
    "Nukkad" is a very aesthetic, dim lighted, and a place with good ambience. A perfect date place. If you're going with your date, you will enjoy a lot. It's romantic. Even with friends, it will be an amazing experience. LIVE MUSIC is a show stealer definitely. The songs that are being played or sung are very very romantic. All time Bollywood hits. They even sing birthday song for the ones who have their birthdays. Drinks are cool. Food was nice. You might find food a Lil expensive but the ambience and the music balances it all. They have both North Indian food options as well as other cuisines. And there's waiting going on sometimes. So it's better if you take prior booking by informing them. Otherwise they can ask you to wait for 15 mins.

  • 2/5 Chhavi B. 1 year ago on Google
    AMBIENCE✨ it's a place I recommend you to go only in cool weather. There was only outdoor seating available, plus the coolers were good for nothing. Lighting was TOO poor, we had to use our phone flashlight to read the menu. however, the place has a warm & cosy vibe. FOOD 🍽️ Nachos were good but the tandoori momos were terrible, there was more maida than filling and they didn't even taste fresh. I've had dal makhni, paneer and naan a couple of years ago and they were all great! LIVE MUSIC 🎶 Performers were exceptionally talented... However, the volumes were inappropriately high for a cosy place and the choice of songs could've been better (but that's just my opinion) BILLS 💵 They charge exorbitant service tax- when asked to waive off, they said it's mandatory to pay service taxes as mentioned in the menu.

  • 5/5 Zuber S. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice cosy place with good ambience. We ideally went here to attend live concert of mansa jimmy. It was jampacked. But the overall vibe inside was very lively. Enough parking is available in sda market. We had to wait for 40 mins to get an entry. Being a small place, it was jampacked. But the wait was totally worth it. We ordered some basic food and mocktails which were good enough. Overall a very nice experience

  • 3/5 siddharth s. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice ambience to the place. Wallking distance from IIT D main gate. Food-wise can add more flavour to the dishes. Menu is more of starters or snacks focused. Can improve in that front.

  • 1/5 Anil S. 2 years ago on Google
    For food I will give 2 stars but the behaviour of staff was not good. We waited 45 minutes and then they mention they will only give us inside table. When their is live performances happening out side. Treat your customer good that is my advice. For a 500 rs dish very less qquantity. Worst singer they got their for night he was jjst a comedian. Crowd is only college going girls and boys. I would suggest people to stop going to such places who do not understand their customers feelings.

  • 5/5 Tanya S. 2 years ago on Google
    A very nice place to visit and chill out with your friends. Entry Located in a shady area(just like the name suggests) but you will not feel shady after going inside. It has seating both inside and outside(smoking zone outside). Nice collection of songs! Had an amazing time!!

    If u are around Safdarjung and aiims and want to have super tasty food , then just comeby this place. The food was super super tasty. Not even a single dish disappointed me. Every dish was above my expectations , be it taste, presentation , portion. Everything is just perfect. The ambience , lighting is so beautiful. Visit during night for a better experience.

  • 5/5 Era C. 2 years ago on Google
    Best place to visit with friends and family on a Saturday evening, they don’t have reservation after 7, which is a bit annoying and there is always waiting to get a table. My dad loved the place and even went on the stage to sing with the live music performer! The food is good and the vibe is very chilled out.

  • 5/5 Brian A. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely place tucked in a corner of SDA market in South Delhi. This open air bar n cafe has a vibrant food menu with some quickly alcohol drinks along with your standard options. We tried their chipotle chicken tikka which was tender n well cooked, their prawn roti tacos were decent too. For drinks, their white wine sangria was a bit strong but we loved their kalakhatta banta made with vodka. The Aam panna banta was ok ok. Would definitely recommend going early to catch a table outside otherwise you'll get stuck inside like we did which is not so great. Their live music on weekends is great through.

  • 4/5 Govind s. 2 years ago on Google
    Live music was awesome & food all marks. Crowd is mixed. Best Suggest-make advance reservation

  • 1/5 Abhay S. 2 years ago on Google
    You need shoes if u want to go inside this cafe. Food is good but I don't know why they don't allow in slippers. I think these types of cafe are are creating class different. It's better to opt for Hauz khas.
