Mumbai gets a taste of the 1980s with its first premium neighborhood bar, LARRIKIN, inspired by the Godfather Era, creating a unique experience for patrons.
With a name reflecting playfulness, mischief, and wit, LARRIKIN introduces an intriguing element to the establishment. Nestled by the beach, it emerges as the ultimate destination for those in search of a unique experience.
The visionary entrepreneur Ankit Tamang, a second-generation owner and the mind behind this exceptional venture, is also the proprietor of the renowned China Gate Group.
“At China Gate, we’ve delved into a myriad of cuisines. Larrikin, on the other hand, springs from an understanding of contemporary preferences, shining a spotlight on the current trend of exceptional cocktails. Our thoughtfully curated menu seamlessly blends innovation with classics, mirroring the evolving palate of our patrons. Acknowledging a shift in dynamics, we’ve observed a growing preference for laid-back yet comfortable settings, coupled with exquisite cocktails and a premium dining experience,” he explained, emphasizing that Larrikin is their response to creating an environment where patrons can unwind in style, relishing both the artistry of mixology and the pleasures of refined dining.
The enchantment of their dimly lit, shadowy interiors significantly contributes to establishing the atmosphere. The ambient lighting fosters an intimate and welcoming aura that radiates warmth and elegance. Unique animal art installations gracing the walls narrate captivating stories, introducing a layer of depth and character to the surroundings, paying tribute to the region’s heritage, traditions, and distinctive identity. This amplifies the authenticity of the experience, fostering a sense of belonging and familiarity for patrons.
The bar showcases a selection of meticulously crafted cocktails influenced by local culture, curated under the expertise of renowned mixologist Chetan Gangan. They take pride in their premium cigar assortment, accompanied by a dedicated and spacious area where patrons can enjoy their cigars alongside an extensive array of single malt whiskies.
LARRIKIN’s culinary offerings take inspiration from European cuisine, showcasing imported prime-cut meats. Chef Dil Gurung has carefully curated a delightful array of dishes, meticulously prepared to gratify the most discerning palate.
The music choices are finely tuned to cultivate a relaxed and refined ambiance. In addition to that, LARRIKIN organizes weekly jazz nights, featuring live jazz performances that take the spotlight, offering patrons a dynamic and culturally enriched experience to further enhance their visit.
