An average weekend in Delhi looks like this – an evening filled with booze, mad lively dancing and then bingeing on a plethora of food.

South Delhi than the most receives a lot of attention of the party crawlers than any other locality in Delhi NCR, as the vicinity is brimming with exciting night spots just perfect to kick-start your weekend. Nestled in the lush green foliage of Green Park is a trendy pub, much frequented by the locals. Perched on the second floor of Aurobindo Marg is ‘The Yard’, a thrilling European-style pub with an atmosphere that is suitable for every kind of mood. You may want to party or just chill out with a round of hookahs in varied flavours, it’s your call.

Dip into The Yard’s fantastic bar menu which is extensive and stocked with all kinds of international booze labels. Kaffir lime & apple martini, monkey business, devil wears prada, Thai hi, the dark sin, dancing Delhi and watermelon & basil caipiroska are worth looking into. Drinking at The Yard is not exactly cheap, yet the experience is an unforgettable one. Ask your server for a glass of wine or a signature cocktail before hitting their eclectic first course.

There are some really great draught beers to be enjoyed here and if you are a beer fan then look no further. Inside, the bar is rustic and dimly lit to accentuate the cosy intimate vibe. The interiors are quite spacious with a gleaming bar sprawled on one end of the room. The Yard is casual, unpretentious and rather industrial looking. There is not much on decorative front as things are kept simple here. The only mention-worthy thing is the excellent rooftop seating area, which is made all the more enchanting by string of lanterns hanging from the pergolas. The view from the rooftop is gorgeous. Go early as this space gets filled up quite quickly.
