Aer Bar

Aer Bar
Four Season Hotel
114 Dr E Moses Road
Worli, Mumbai

Notes:
If you are fond of cocktails and panorama views, Aer is a Mumbai spot not to be missed. The bar is a roof-top placed atop the Four Season Hotel, thus providing an excellent 360 degree view of the sea surrounding Mumbai. Not only is the view gorgeous, the bar also features an everyday sunset happy hour from 5:30-8pm, amongst other offering Moët & Chandon champagne at mere 500rs per glass, which I guess is enough of an incentive to make it regular hangout spot. Expect the usual expat and upper-class, Indian crowd and lots of masala snacks. Highly recommended.
