Duke Bar And Restaurant

Duke gives an essence of actual Kolkata. Its old furniture, polite staff with no greed for tips. Serve excellent food. Hard drinks moderately priced. Visit to this place is strongly recommended those who want to get a sense of no frill Bar and restaurant with fantastic live-music. Very gentle musicians who are playing there for years after years. Melodious male and female singers. And the choice of songs push back to 80s-90s. Interestingly midst of Hindi, Bangla songs singers would suddenly sing one or two Rabindra sangeet. It only speaks about the taste parameter of the city and how culturally inclined Bengal or Bengalis are!

In short Vintage Calcutta at its core. No flamboyance yet class in its humility and simplicity. Personal and heart warming. The quality and quantity of food is near excellent. And the service quality and staffs awesome. Just don't expect that obnoxious pampers of privacy intrusive 5star pubs. Perfect place place to meet with old friends and family. Budget for 2 should not cost more than 1400 including alcohol.
