Bandra West owes its hip vibe to trendy craft-beer bars and upscale global restaurants, as well as stylish cafes that serve chia juice by day and creative cocktails at night. The area’s old-world bungalows sit alongside chic fashion boutiques, wall murals and street stalls. Restored 17th-century Bandra Fort, which hosts music performances, is at one end of waterfront Bandstand Promenade, a popular meeting point.
