Sidecar

One of Delhi’s most respected cocktail bars, Sidecar is a stylish South Delhi spot known for creative drinks and sophisticated crowd. Located in Greater Kailash 2, it has become a favourite with Delhi’s LGBTQ+ community thanks to its inclusive atmosphere, gay-friendly events and occasional Pride-focused events.

This is not a traditional gay bar, but it is one of the city’s welcoming social spaces where LGBTQ+ travellers can enjoy a night out without needing a dedicated gay venue. Expect expertly made cocktails, low lighting, good music and a crowd that mixes Delhi creatives, professionals and cocktail enthusiasts.

Sidecar is best known for its drinks rather than a big dance-floor atmosphere.
