Gladia Brewery & Kitchen Debuts in Bengaluru with a Roman Twist on Modern Dining

In a city known for its dynamic food and beverage scene, Bengaluru welcomes a one-of-a-kind addition, Gladia Brewery & Kitchen, a grand Roman-inspired brewpub that merges immersive storytelling, innovative cocktails, and eclectic cuisine. Located in Sarjapur, this 35,000 sq. ft. destination seats up to 700 guests and redefines experience-led hospitality with a concept that blends mythology and mixology.

From the moment guests enter through the gates guarded by a 15-foot gladiator statue, Gladia sets the stage for an unforgettable journey. Inside, the venue transforms into a theatrical world filled with mythological figures, think Medusa frozen mid-gaze, the towering Tree of Wisdom, and angels suspended in motion, creating a space that feels at once majestic and warm.

“We wanted to create more than just a venue,” say the founders of Gladia. “This is a space where storytelling comes alive through architecture, food, and atmosphere.”

The bar raises the game with a cocktail menu inspired by battles, deities, and ancient indulgences. Signatures like the Gladiator, a bold twist on the classic old-fashioned, and showstoppers like Maximus Elixer and Festum promise drama and complexity in every sip.

Beer lovers aren’t left behind either. Gladia’s in-house brews reflect the same commitment to boldness and balance. With six signature beers ranging from light ales to dark stouts, each pint pays homage to fearless Roman spirit and craft.

The culinary experience is equally ambitious. With over 150 dishes, the menu spans classic comfort and surprising innovation. Highlights include the Mango Strawberry Maki Roll, Classic Neapolitan Pizzas, Gowda Mutton Chops packed with Karnataka flavours, and the Passion Fruit Bowl, all capped with a comforting Lotus Biscoff Cheesecake.

Gladia’s space is designed for both high-energy evenings and peaceful moments, with distinct zones catering to dates, gatherings, parties, or quiet conversations by the Wishing Fountain. Whether under the stars or inside the grand arena, every corner holds its own atmosphere and charm.

More than a brewpub, Gladia is a sensory narrative. It offers not just meals and drinks, but a memory shaped by design, myth, and mindful detail. In every bite and sip, guests become part of a legend unfolding, a space where hospitality becomes an epic.

Popeyes, the iconic Louisiana-born fried chicken brand, has officially launched its first airport outlet at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Terminal 2. The opening marks a strategic step in Popeyes’ expansion across India following its debut in Mumbai earlier this year in August.

The Mumbai T2 store has been launched in partnership with AMRL, reflecting Popeyes’ focus on premium, high-footfall locations and its intent to bring globally loved flavours to travellers. Visitors at Terminal 2 can now enjoy signature offerings such as the Chicken Sandwich, Signature Fried Chicken, Boneless Chicken, and the Hot & Messy range, specially curated for the Indian palate. Staying true to its Louisiana Cajun roots, all chicken is fresh, hand-battered, hand-breaded, and marinated for 12 hours, ensuring bold and distinctive flavours in every bite.

Speaking on the expansion, Sameer Khetarpal, CEO & MD of Jubilant FoodWorks Limited, said, “Airports have become critical touchpoints for brand discovery and repeat engagement. Launching at Mumbai T2 allows us to reach a high-intent, high-frequency audience and take Popeyes beyond the high street. After a strong response in Mumbai since August, this opening is a deliberate move to scale the brand in premium travel-led locations.”

Highlighting the importance of F&B in the airport experience, a spokesperson from AMRL added, “The launch of Popeyes at CSMIA marks a significant milestone in AMRL’s F&B growth. Airports are evolving into lifestyle destinations, and partnering with a globally iconic brand like Popeyes aligns strongly with our vision of offering world-class choices to travellers. This collaboration reflects our focus on quality, consistency, and global relevance.”

The Popeyes Mumbai T2 outlet is now open for travellers, offering both dine-in and takeaway options for domestic and international passengers, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a taste of Louisiana at India’s busiest airport.
