Under Deck
There are three things that come to mind when you think Under Deck - live bands, dancing bartenders and the Long Island Ice Tea. Also, there's a pretty good chance that everybody knows your name. Under Deck is a cozy little place done up like a ship and it is crowded mostly with regulars, who haven't considered going anywhere else in a long time because Right here they have everything they need - familiar faces, good music and, on occasion, a large-screen TV. The bartenders also are a friendly lot, and have quite a few tricks in their bag to keep you entertained - juggling, impromptu jigs and one pretty cool magic routine with a cigarette.

Liquids

I have been there twice in one week i.e friday and saturday, Its crowded on fridays you need to stand and dance and drink however you will find decent crowd on saturday you will find place to sit and listen to music (they play trance) I had only snack with beer I found beer smooth and also had a Long island (its a vodka with icetea). The service is good even for small bills they respect you, we had 5 beer a juice and snack only for 2K overall 4/5 worth a stay for an hour with small group (2 or 3).
Bollywood nights on Sundays! This place never dies. The owners keep remodeling. The nice thing is it is small and cozy and on the top floor. They manage to keep it open late. Never a dull moment.An amazingly comfortable place oozing of class, amity, style and JOY! Excellent staff, right from the bouncer, the Bar manager to the Dj and the bartenders! They would make you feel like royalty! Comfortable
floor area except when it is very crowded! Mostly couple entry, very few stags are allowed in, usually the regulars only... On a weekend or any other day, when my fiance and myself get the time and are in the party groove or just want to chill out, we’re there! The drinks are good, the music exceptional, with the in-house DJ playing music for the masses (although he absolutely loves playing Trance!), the ambience, inviting and cheerful.. Just love the beautifully decorated ceiling with bamboo canes and soft blue drapes! Haven’t been there for the recently being held, Ladies’ Night on Fridays...would love to though! Overall, a thoroughly fantastic pub! You would love to be there on Weekends, when it is packed with really good crowd!

The English Pub is known for its music by inhouse DJ's , Guest DJ's, Theme Nights, Fashion Shows and Happening Crowd.I grew up with this stuff...i think it’s time to move on. they have the same food, drinks ambience, and it’s time for a make over. I guess I have hit mid life crisis and just am not into 80’s music.

Mixed Up!
Himayath Nagar has finally jumped aboard the nightlife train with the opening of the city’s newest pub, Mix, at the Platinum Hotel.

Though the place matches what every other lounge pub in the city has with regular Indo-Chinese starters on the menu, it's the décor that'll really have you talking.

Suspended discs hang above the red – white themed bar, giving the whole place a futuristic space ship like feel.

So if you fancied Star Trek, here's a chance to get beamed up into a neon lit lounge with retro leather interiors.

Flex those dance muscles to DJ Mahesh's progressive house and trance tracks.

Mix prides itself on selling alcohol at a cheaper rate than other clubs. Perfect to grab your favourite cocktails without worrying about that credit card bill.

The next time you find yourself looking for a drink or an after party venue, Mix at The Platinum Hotel is worth checking out.

Pmatka
The last time you went to that dapper pub in your desi attire all you got were some dirty glares. Obviously you didn’t like it one bit.

You can now be proud to wear desi clothes and even get rewarded with free drinks for it at Pmatka.

This offbeat pub also compliments your desi-ness by serving their drinks in a matka (earthen pots).

If you like it dhaba style, you can also park yourself on their khatiya and savour some spicy chaat!

What’s more? This pub’s back with a bang after a few cool changes to its entire setup.

You can now hang out with your friends and shoot a few games of pool at their brand new pool table.

They also have an exciting stream of live band performances lined up starting with Jalebi Cartel this Saturday!

Rock On, Desi Style!

Honoring the greats has been in practice for centuries. From Greek heroes to Michael Jordon, everyone loves remembering someone that made history.

Hall Of Fame Sports Grill is the new kid on the block that's changing the Sports Bar experience in the city.

With eighteen 42 inch LCD flat screens and 2 projectors dedicated entirely to viewing live sporting events, this place leaves the frills out. Rather it lets the Tex-Mex Menu and the sports schedule do the the talking.

Like sports themed restaurants in the U.S., HOF caters to the family dining experience. Try their Lamb Chops on red wine risotto rice or their Chicken Griglia and you won't regret bringing the kids.

12 more reasons to go HOF are the mouth watering choice of sauces that coat their chicken wings. Garlic Parmesan, Carribean Jerk, Chipotle and Habenero could be your next appetizing addiction.

Hall of Fame Sports Grill
However, when push comes to shove die hard sports fans like mixing sport with their booze. With a great range of imported alcohol like Pimms and Campari at under 350/-, HOF is definitely setting the bar high (pun intended.)

Enjoy a drink and a hookah in their plush lounge or grab some ale and stout while you shoot some pool.

Get your game face on!

Excess Club N Lounge's launch in Hyderabad
Pubs, clubs and lounges - been there done that.

Make way for Excess Club N Lounge. Big, bold and exhaustive, Excess brings world class entertainment experience to Hyderabad.

Excess launched in style on Feb 5, 2009 at Novotel & HICC Complex. Boasting a size of over 10,000 square feet, two levels, a concert arena, multiple bar counters, an open air extension, this place is unrivaled.

With plush décor this Lifestyle Club N Lounge offers a wide choice of luxurious private seating and dining areas.

Specially designed for live performances, Excess plans to bring to the city best of bands, international DJs, theater groups and comedy acts.

With a red carpet welcome, the guests at the launch were in for a royal treat. Great food, live performances, exotic mocktails (being a dry day), and some great hip hop music made sure the guests were thoroughly entertained. Stars like Nagarjuna and Sania Mirza also graced the occasion.

Retropark, a band specializing in Classic Rock flew down from Mumbai to kick start the night. They entertained the crowd with classic numbers like Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Zombie and Sweet Child O Mine.

With a plan to hold at least one event per week, it's ready to bring a lot of action your way.

For the truly privileged, Excess also offers exclusive memberships.

So, go ahead and get ready to live life in Excess!

Setting trends isn't new to The Park Hotel in Hyderabad. This time, they do it with Kismet, their brand new Club.

It's been a long wait. But Hyderabad's definitive clubbing experience has arrived.

Launched over the weekend, Kismet is designed by the award-winning firm, Blacksheep. The club fuses Hyderabad's traditional designs with her au courant visions.

The 11,500 sq. ft. venue includes a VIP section, lounge and private-rooms. The focus however (as it should be), is on the massive dance-floor. An LED take on nawabi-chandeliers, hooked to the sound-system, descend onto the dance-floor.
Kismet Club Opens at The Park Hotel

The sound-system floods some incredible acoustics onto the dance-floor. The sound is mellowed down in the lounge area, perhaps intentionally, to allow for conversations.

The bar staff is friendly and efficient. That means you get your refills quick and back to the dance-floor in a minute or two.

Kismet's calling! Are you ready?

NIGHTLIFE &PUBS


Diamond in the rough
Carbon Lounge at The Park Hotel Opens
A dog might be man’s best friend, while diamonds are a girl’s. Somewhere in between though, the genders can compromise on Carbon.

Men and women can both revel in The Park’s newest black diamond addition, Carbon – their no curves lounge.

Though geometry is a common hatred we’ve shared as children, here the geometric shapes will toy with your eyes, keeping you mesmerized.

With diamond cuts, all in brown, each edge has a panel of LED lights that change colour as you party the night away. The angled mirrors at the screen triple the trippy kaleidoscopic visuals.

Rest your wine on the triangular bar tables, or your legs on the hexagonal chairs. Bite into their lip smacking fusion starters. Turn the heat up with the desi style chicken wings that’ll spice up your evening if nothing else does.

Fan of symmetry or not, this lounge will have you lining up to admire its lines.
