Where to Celebrate Friendship Day in Mumbai This Weekend
Friendship Day is one of those occasions that doesn't need grand plans to feel special. Sometimes, all it takes is getting everyone to finally agree on a place, putting your phones away for a few hours, and catching up over good food. Whether your group loves long brunches, leisurely lunches, cocktails that turn into dinner, or simply sharing pizzas and desserts, Mumbai has plenty of ways to celebrate the people who know your embarrassing stories and still choose to stick around.
So if the group chat is full of "Where are we meeting?" messages, consider this your answer. We've rounded up five places across the city that promise great food, good vibes, and plenty of reasons to raise a toast to friendship.
‘Cause the best memories are made around a shared table.
🌊 The Bayview
Come for the harbour views, stay for the food and the endless catch-up. Share the Conadita Pizza, dig into Fish & Chips, and order the Seafood Risotto while watching the waves roll by.
Where: The Bayview, Hotel Marine Plaza, Mumbai
🍸 Aahii
Main character cocktails and comfort food? Say less. Sip on the Jamun Paloma or Chai Old Fashioned while sharing kebabs, biryanis and flavour-packed small plates.
Where: Worli, Mumbai
🎶 Someplace Else
Brunch, live music, sushi and retro hits later? That's the entire plan. Spend the afternoon catching up before dancing the night away with your favourite people.
Where: BKC, Mumbai
🍝 CinCin
The kind of table where nobody says "I'll just have a bite." Share Burrata Pizza, twirl through Mezze Rigatoni and save room for the dreamy Torta di Lamponi.
Where: Linking Road, Bandra West, Mumbai
🥗 Harvest Salad Co.
For the friend group that loves fresh flavours without missing out on the fun. Order the Korean Kimchi Paneer Bowl or Mexican California Salad and dig in together.
Where: Multiple outlets
Whether your friendships are built over endless brunches, shared desserts, or spontaneous dinner plans, this weekend is the perfect excuse to get everyone together. Pick a table, order one dish too many, laugh a little louder than usual, and celebrate the people who make every meal a little more memorable.
Happy Friendship Day!
