Standing tall since 1871, this was one of the primary target during the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks.

Just behind The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai, this is a famous hangout destination for foreign tourists. One of the many Irani cafes present in Mumbai, this place is on the bucket list of every person residing in Mumbai, after 26/11. Opened just 4 days after the attack, it was forcefully closed by the police, to avoid further damage. Coming to the menu, Continental, Chinese, Indian, Italian.. ask for it and it's in on your table, within 15 minutes. All you need to do is go in groups. You might just feel the very essence of the cafe and bar that makes it so exciting. Also, it might not burn a hole in your pocket, but trust me when I say, your money is worth spending in Leopolds Cafe, Mumbai.

The marks where the bullets where lodged.
