How does a drink garden tarry this heartless summer? By staying indoors! Technically, Kaitlyn’s Beer Garden isn’t so most a garden as it is a drink gymnasium that recreates a outdoor in a interiors. The opening to Kaitlyn’s Beer Garden has we walking on a faux-grass carpet, while creepers accoutre a walls. Inside we find faux-trees, instead of petrify columns, while vast French windows emanate a clarity of openness. The seating consists of dark-wood chairs and tables lined adult together resemble cruise tables. There’s also a tree-flanked bar area. The ambiance is pleasant. If, however, you’re streamer here to lay amidst inlet in all a (real) glory, or even usually anticipating for an al fresco area, we won’t find that here.

Going with a theme, we start with beer. They don’t offer any bottled beers, instead source from a Andheri-based microbrewery, Brewbot. A server informs us that shortly home brews will be on a menu. Currently, there are usually 3 beers, all from Brewbot’s selections: Mojo Rising, Skywalker (Kolsh), Black Mamba (Stout), all labelled during R225 (before tax).

The server is discerning to offer giveaway samples. The samples are generous, consisting of shot eyeglasses surfaced to a brim. We collect a Black Mamba, that is creamy, and has a graphic essence of coffee. The bar menu is endless featuring cocktails, singular malts, whiskies from conflicting a globe, vodkas, tequilas, wines and more.

The food menu offers Indian, Oriental and Continental fare. We start with a Oriental territory opting for Burnt Garlic Chicken (Rs 225 before taxation on a menu, though we were charged R240 before tax). The plate also comes with a vegetarian option, substituting mushrooms (Rs 195) for chicken, and a choice of prawns (Rs 240) for sea-food lovers.

It comes served on an all-white platter that contrasts beautifully with a dim timber tables (think Instagram food pictures!). The portions are rather small. Some of a duck pieces are proposal and well-cooked, while a others are chewy. We pierce on to a Indian menu with Lasooni Kebab picking fish (Rs 270), over duck (Rs 245) and prawns (Rs 370). Again, this plate too comes in a compress portion.

The fish is tender, and spicy, usually how we like it. Finally, we try out their signature pizza, a Kaitlyn’s Beer Garden Special Pizza. This can be served in a vegetarian (Rs 175), or a non-vegetarian choice (Rs 195), or a multiple of a dual — half vegetarian and half non-vegetarian (Rs 195). We opt for a final option. The pizza is delicious; we can ambience a mutation in a base. It is softly spiced, while a mozzarella adds a spirit of sweetness. However, a duck pieces are large, creation it formidable to chew.

We afterwards ask to take-away a Triple Schezwan Fried Rice Veg (Rs 280). There’s also a non-vegetarian choice labelled during (Rs 300), and a Vegetarian Dum Biryani (Rs 250). But a server looks hassled. He informs us that he’s not utterly certain if they can offer take-away since they’re out of lift bags (strangely, it was a cosmetic bag and not cosmetic containers that put them in a fix). The staff scurried around a bit, and managed.

The food survived and is usually as uninformed a subsequent day. The portions are most incomparable for these packaged dishes. The Triple Schezwan is most too sharp and a salsa overpowers a flavours of a vegetables. The biryani is savoury and comes with a side of raita.

Kaitlyn’s has no dessert options, though a Bailey’s Irish Cream might work as a substitute, for some.

Overall, a use was excellent. The ambience was good, while a food could have been better. It’s value a visit, though we’d advise watchful a bit as they need some-more time to straighten out a chinks.
