  • 1. Kala Ghoda Café

    $ | Fort

    Among the most beloved lunch spots for South Mumbai's workaday crowd, this quaint little café is the ideal spot to grab a soy latte and a quick bite while resting your feet. The fresh juices and salads are cheap but clean and safe for foreigners, the Wi-Fi is free, and the interior, while a bit cramped, is bright and pleasant---and best of all, the sandwiches, like the KGC Special (arugula, vegetarian mayo, and Padano cheese on grilled flat bread), are light but extremely tasty when snuggled up to a hot (or more preferably iced) cup of joe. It's in a popular neighborhood, just a stone's throw from Jehangir Art Gallery and Kenneseth Eliyahoo Synagogue.

    10 Ropewalk La., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India
    22-2263–3866

    Known For

    • Great coffee
    • Convivial atmosphere that encourages loitering (bring your laptop and get some work done)
    • Its location in trendy Kala Ghoda
  • 2. Woodside Inn

    $$ | Colaba

    The only real bar in town (in the American sense, at least) is modeled on an English pub, plays decent music (though sometimes too loud), has great snack food, and free Wi-Fi (that can sometimes be spotty), and some of the best-priced alcohol in town. Try the soy burgers, the pizzas—the four cheese is excellent, and the margarita’s no slouch—or Franco's meatballs (a lamb and pork mix in a tangy tomato sauce).

    Wodehouse Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India
    22-2287–5752

    Known For

    • Location, location, location---right at the head of Colaba Causeway
    • Variety of local beers on tap
    • Unusual burgers offered during Burger Festival
  • 3. Bade Miya

    $ | Colaba

    Sitting behind the Taj Mahal Hotel for generations, Mumbai's most famous kebab joint is always packed, always greasy, and always tasty. Even though there's a strictly vegetarian section of the menu, you'll probably want to check out mutton seekh roll (succulent minced mutton kebab folded into a roti), the chicken baida roti (a sort of Indian quesadilla, with chicken and egg), or the more adventurous bheja fry (fried goat brains in a spicy gravy).

    Tullock Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India
    22-2202–1447

    Known For

    • Quick, drive-through-style service
    • Open till 1 am
    • Always crowded so you know the food is fresh

  • 4. Café Zoe

    $$ | Lower Parel

    One of the city's most popular dining and drinking spots, the roomy, open, yet strangely utilitarian Café Zoe serves European and continental breakfasts, brunches, lunches, dinners, and drinks. Depending on what time you arrive at this converted industrial compound, the crowd may include young parents feeding their one-year-old daughter sweet bites of Belgian waffles, local journalists shoveling down hot minestrone soup while using the free Wi-Fi, dating couples sharing a romantic dinner of seafood and pasta, or young partygoers drinking cocktails in a dim but sensuous atmosphere after midnight.

    Mathuradas Mills, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400013, India
    22-2490–2065

    Known For

    • Burgers and fries
    • Crepes and waffles for brunch
    • Happy hours, 5--9 pm
  • 5. Elco Restaurant

    $ | Bandra

    For decades the food stalls in front of Elco Market have been serving some of the best—and cleanest—vegetarian street food Mumbai has to offer, and they were doing so well that the owners were able to open this two-floor restaurant inside the market, offering essentially the same food. One of Mumbai's most iconic experiences is standing by the pani puri vendor, as he stuffs boiled potato, sprouts, mint-fresh water, and sweet chutney into an eggshell-thin sphere of fried flour and hands it to you in a plate woven together with leaves.

    46 Hill Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400050, India
    22-2645--7677

    Known For

    • The chaat, including the pani puri
    • All the fun of street food without any of the tummy upsets
    • Ragda pattice (shallow-fried potato patties blanketed with a spicy curry of white peas)

  • 6. Ellora Restaurant

    $

    A convenient place to stop for a cold drink and a hot samosa. The outdoor patio has fruit trees (home to many monkeys) and pink bougainvillea flowers. The restaurant closes before the caves do.

    Maharashtra, India
    24-372–4441
  • 7. Kailas

    $

    Walk straight out of Kailasa Cave (number 16), past the umpteen souvenir stalls on your right, and you'll see the Hotel Kailas with its attached restaurant, Kailas: it's a simple cafeteria-style restaurant serving basic vegetarian Indian food until 9:30 pm. The food isn't great, but it's a hygienic spot, and a bit nicer than the Ellora Restaurant.

    Maharashtra, India
  • 8. Le Pain Quotidien

    $$ | Colaba

    This Belgian bakery, a stone's throw from the Gateway of India, offers great breads, fresh ingredients, and a giant communal table. There's a wine selection, too, and evening specials might include grilled salmon or seared lamb chops. It's a good option when you're sweating it out in South Mumbai, or for those who need a break from Indian food and want to check email on the free Wi-Fi.

    C.S.M. Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400005, India
    22-6615–0202

    Known For

    • Croissants and baguettes
    • Tartines, especially the roasted chicken and smoked mozzarella
    • Fresh salads
  • 9. The Pantry

    $ | Fort

    Under the same ownership as Woodside Inn, this restaurant dispenses with the pubby atmosphere to focus on simple, rustic cuisine using local ingredients. The food is excellent and reasonably priced considering how refined it is, and although it'd be nice if it had a wine license—the white interiors, open kitchen, and general atmosphere all scream "wine bar"—the excellent baked goods and mains more than make up for the lack of booze.

    Military Sq. La., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400001, India
    22-2270–0082

    Known For

    • Healthy breakfast options
    • Delightful baked goods
    • Fairly accommodating of gluten-free diners

  • 10. The Tasting Room

    $ | Central Mumbai

    Popular with rich Mumbai housewives—who pack the place for lunch during the week—this Mediterranean restaurant serves gourmet food in a relaxed, tasteful setting. On the top-floor veranda of Good Earth (a designer furniture store), the Tasting Room shares its hosts' penchant for subtle Indian minimalism in warm earth tones.

    Tulsi Pipe Rd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400011, India
    22-6528–5284

    Known For

    • Watermelon and feta salad
    • Excellent location for those visiting the nearby shopping behemoth, Phoenix Mills
    • Romantic dinner ambience
