Co-founded by the legendary late Chef Floyd Cardoz, the Canteen has redefined Indian dining. Today, Executive Chef Hussain Shahzad leads the kitchen with a focus on regional discovery. The team scours India to find forgotten ingredients and gives them a contemporary stage.

The menu celebrates the vastness of India’s culinary landscape. Every dish is rooted in tradition but presented with a fresh, adventurous perspective.
The bar program is equally innovative. The “Make Mine A Bombay” cocktail book features drinks like curry leaf soda and coconut-washed tequila.
The space, redesigned in 2023 by Shonan Purie Trehan, feels like a grand old Mumbai bungalow. High ceilings, stained-glass windows, and intricate patterned tiles set the scene. It creates a nostalgic yet vibrant atmosphere perfect for long lunches or high-energy dinners. ✨
The Canteen is deeply committed to sustainability and community. Chef Hussain ensures ingredients are sourced responsibly from local farmers. Their annual Independence Day Dawat is a “pay what you want” initiative that supports local charities.

If you’re looking for more than just a meal, The Bombay Canteen is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the vibrant flavors of India. Whether it’s the bold regional dishes or the innovative cocktails, every visit offers a taste of Bombay’s history, culture, and future.
