Copitas, the award-winning bar at Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru, has unveiled a new music-inspired cocktail menu, striking a fresh chord in the city’s nightlife. Known for being the first bar in Bengaluru to feature on the prestigious Asia’s 50 Best list, Copitas is now inviting guests on a sensory journey where cocktails harmonise with sound.
The concept draws inspiration from the timeless connection between cocktails and music. Just as speakeasies of the jazz age paired with the Martini or Havana’s salsa nights celebrated rum, Copitas reimagines these dialogues for today’s Bengaluru. The new menu takes guests through eras of sound from the smooth jazz of the 1920s to disco beats and contemporary electronica, each drink crafted as a tribute to its genre.
“At Four Seasons, our philosophy has always been to craft experiences that stay with guests long after they leave. Copitas has consistently set benchmarks for Bengaluru’s cocktail culture, but with this menu we wanted to go further,” said Kazim Mehdi, Director of Food & Beverage at Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru. “Music and cocktails have always shared a quiet dialogue. One evokes memory, the other lingers on the palate. With this menu, we bring that dialogue to life in a way that is tangible, artistic, and multi-sensory.”
Among the highlights is Rasamary, a bold tribute to pop music. Vodka and smoky peated malt meet tangy tomato and rasam powder, lifted by lemongrass and chili for a playful, unapologetically local twist. Another standout is Shokunin, inspired by disco. Gin and Campari form the base, with cacao nibs, coffee, and beetroot creating indulgent depth for what the team describes as “a chocolaty, tropical cocktail with a smooth finish.”
For Bar Manager Sher Thakur, who led the creation of the new menu, the personal favourite remains Chord and Crisp. “This collection was designed for those who live and breathe music. Chord and Crisp is my favourite. Vodka sets the rhythm, thyme and Parmesan bring savoury depth, and watermelon and lime add balance. It is soulful, clean, and herbaceous, much like the blues itself,” he shared.
The menu itself is a work of art, designed with folds reminiscent of vintage greeting cards. Each cocktail is paired with stories, illustrations of local ingredients, and collectible CD-style coasters featuring lyric fragments, making it as much a keepsake as a guide.
With this innovative menu, Copitas reaffirms its place as a definitive address for cocktail artistry in Bengaluru. More than just a bar, it offers a rhythm of flavours and storytelling, ensuring that every night here lingers like a favourite melody.

SOCIAL, India’s favorite neighborhood café-bar, is back with its much-awaited Oktobeerfest 2025, running from 6th to 19th October. This year’s edition promises bigger buckets, bolder bites, and playful new experiences designed to bring people together over food, beer, and festive cheer.
Beer takes the spotlight with bucket deals offering up to 20% savings on 3, 6, and 9 pints, perfect for sharing with friends. Making a comeback is SOCIAL’s popular Sausage Platter, the perfect companion to chilled brews. Guests can also indulge in exclusive bucket-and-platter pairings crafted to spark camaraderie and turn group hangouts into memorable beer-filled feasts.
Adding a quirky SOCIAL twist, each table will feature Brew Bingo, a beer-inspired challenge card with fun prompts like “chugged a pint in one go,” “spilled beer on yourself and kept drinking,” or “paired beer with dessert.” Guests can tick off their challenges as they go, creating laughter-filled moments to remember.
All SOCIAL outlets nationwide will transform with buntings, quirky décor, and festive energy. True to SOCIAL’s spirit of being a second home for communities, the festival combines good beer, hearty food, and togetherness.
Divya Aggarwal, Chief Growth Officer, Impresario Entertainment & Hospitality Pvt Ltd, shared, “Oktobeerfest at SOCIAL has become a custom our communities look forward to every year. It’s our way of raising a toast to togetherness with buckets to share, a hearty platter to dig into, and playful experiences that bring people closer. Every year, we add a new SOCIAL twist to the global Oktobeerfest tradition, making it uniquely ours and something our guests can truly call their own.”
With bigger buckets, flavorful pairings, and engaging activities, Oktobeerfest 2025 is set to turn October into a month-long celebration of flavor, fun, and friendship, reaffirming SOCIAL’s place as the go-to neighborhood destination for unforgettable gatherings.

Santé Spa Cuisine, the award-winning health and wellness dining brand, has strengthened its presence in Pune with the opening of its third outlet at Law College Road. Known for its commitment to fresh, preservative-free, and plant-based cooking, the brand continues to champion mindful dining with dishes that balance taste, nutrition, and sustainability.
The new outlet, set in the backyard of a century-old home surrounded by greenery, features both indoor and outdoor seating for up to 120 guests. With cane, bamboo, copper, and recycled accents, the space reflects Santé’s eco-conscious philosophy while encouraging guests to relax and connect with nature.
Santé’s menu remains true to its wellness-driven ethos. Guests can choose from vegetarian, vegan, Jain, and gluten-free options including millet bowls packed with superfoods, Levantine-inspired protein-rich dishes, gluten-free multigrain pizzas, high-fibre casseroles, and indulgent yet healthy desserts made with jaggery, date sugar, and erythritol. Cold-pressed juices, detox beverages, and carefully paired wines and sangrias complement the food experience.
Founder Sonal Barmecha shared her vision at the launch, “Our aim is to provide a space where people can sit peacefully and nourish both body and mind. With the Law College Road outlet, we are creating more than a dining space, we are building a community that values health, sustainability, and mindful living.”
She added, “The vibrant greenery and open spaces beautifully complement our ethos of simplicity and nourishment. We hope this space inspires people to adopt healthier lifestyles and to enjoy life’s simple pleasures, while also caring for the planet.”
With outlets already at Koregaon Park and Baner in Pune, along with three locations in Mumbai, Santé Spa Cuisine is rapidly expanding its reach in the health food space. Soon to be available on Swiggy and Zomato, the brand is making nutritious and sustainable dining more accessible to urban diners.
Santé’s seasonal menus, like the current Monsoon Menu featuring Himalayan Thukpa soup with momos, keep the experience fresh, relevant, and comforting.
