Pros:
It's a really cool hangout, totally relaxed, great ambience!
Cons:
Kinda cramped, very smoky, not a good idea if your lookin for some quiet!


An old jukebox and a pitcher of beer... that’s Cafe Mondegar for you! The ideal place to hang out with friends, Cafe Mondegar or, as most of us like to call it, ’Mondies’
is right next to Regal, at Colaba. It’s the perfect pre and post movie hangout. And you don’t have to worry if you detest beer and smokes like I do, Mondies has something for everyone.
Mario Miranda’s sketches adorn all the walls, depicting people smoking, drinking, leching and generally popping out of their clothes. Not the ideal place for families, the more trendy, rowdy crowds would fit right in.
It’s a tiny place, with tables cramped next to each other and people smoking their lungs out. The little air-conditioned section is a better idea for asthmatics and couples, you don’t have to yell sweet nothings into each others’ ears. But if you’re out for some loud fun with a group nothing beats the outer section.
Don’t leave Mondies without trying out their Irish coffee, which is definitely the best in Bombay. In cute lil wine glasses, it’s all frothy and strong, and gives you that warm feeling inside. Their pastas and burgers are pretty delicious too. You should pass on their paneer steak though, it leaves a lot to be desired. Overall the food is pretty decent, what it lacks is made up by the ambience.
You can spend hours there, over smokes, pitchers of beer, popping nuts and talking expressively. You’re bound to be surrounded by firangs who yell to make themselves understood. The service is friendly and fast. You can even pick up some Mondegar memorabilia if the place strikes a chord or you’re an out-of-towner. They have Mondegar t-shirts, mugs, and what nots, just proving that this cafe is a landmark in Bombay.
