Paro: A Modern Indian Bar Redefining Jaipur’s Nightlife

Paro: A Modern Indian Bar Redefining Jaipur’s Nightlife

In the heart of Jaipur’s historic MI Road district, Paro has quickly established itself as a crown jewel in the city’s evolving nightlife. Housed in an 80-year-old colonial building, this “Modern Indian Bar” merges old-world elegance with contemporary vibrancy, offering Jaipur’s trendsetters a place where heritage and modernity coexist.

The restored mansion retains original architectural elements, including lime plaster walls crafted by descendants of Jaipur’s Hawa Mahal artisans and Makrana marble flooring, the same used in the Taj Mahal. These historic details blend seamlessly with modern luxuries, from a central island bar to plush interiors and a rooftop that glows under flickering candles as dusk falls. The result is an atmosphere that feels both nostalgically regal and strikingly modern.

At Paro’s bar, mixology is reimagined with an Indian soul. Signature cocktails showcase indigenous ingredients and inventive presentations, from the rose-infused “Shehar” gin and tonic to the kokum and cumin-spiced “Ratnagiri Rhapsody.” Playful creations like the “Saanjh” cocktail, served with a smoking rosemary sprig to mimic a Jaipur sunset, highlight co-founder Ujjwal Gupta’s passion for storytelling through drinks.

The food menu follows the same ethos, reinterpreting regional favorites into creative, shareable delights. Classics are reinvented — Rajasthani Dal Bati becomes Dal Bati Bites, dosa transforms into crisp Onion Rings, and Mumbai Pav Bhaji finds new form as buttery rolls. Desserts too bridge nostalgia and innovation, with creations like Aamras Panna Cotta and Jigarthanda Falooda. Each dish complements the cocktails, celebrating India’s culinary heritage with a modern twist.

Paro also thrives as an immersive nightlife venue. Live indie acts, DJ sets, and an energetic crowd give the space a buzzing yet intimate vibe. Guests praise its balance of sophistication and warmth, with genuine Rajasthani hospitality anchoring every experience.

Beyond its daily operations, Paro has emerged as a cultural trendsetter. From hosting Jaipur’s first Superkicks street-culture event to collaborating with Michelin-starred chefs for exclusive tasting menus, the bar has carved a national reputation. Media accolades from Condé Nast Traveller and others highlight its unique ability to celebrate local culture while embracing global innovation.

With its fusion of history, mixology, cuisine, music, and events, Paro has redefined Jaipur’s nightlife. Whether for a date night, a celebration, or simply to soak in the rooftop views, it stands as a destination where heritage and modern indulgence meet in perfect harmony.

  •  Paro – Modern Indian Bar, Jaipuria Mansion, Panch Batti, MI Road, Jaipur.
  •  Open daily: 12:00 PM – 11:59 PM
