MURO’s Musing 2.0: Bengaluru’s Boldest Cocktail Menu is Here

If you thought you’d seen it all in the world of cocktails, MURO Bengaluru is here to prove you wrong. The city's favorite experimental bar has unleashed Muro Musing 2.0, a boundary-pushing cocktail menu featuring shrimp-infused drinks, Doritos in tequila, and India's first-ever highball carbonation station.

A Cocktail Menu Unlike Any Other

MURO’s latest menu is a playground of flavors and textures, blending unexpected ingredients into highly crafted, ultra-innovative drinks. Shades of Green surprises with a mix of Bombay Sapphire, prosecco, wild coriander, elderflower, and Laphroaig mist, while Dirty Ceviche takes umami to the next level with Tanqueray No. TEN, shrimp eau de vie, and michelada.

If you're feeling bold, El Mariachi infuses tequila with Doritos and fresh salsa, while Salida Del Sol turns up the heat with mezcal, cashew butter, and guajillo. And for those craving something sweet, Mango Sticky Rice transforms a beloved dessert into a cocktail, playing with contrasts in temperature and texture.

"Our creative process was simple—stick a hundred wild ideas on a whiteboard and see what works. But above all, our mission was to make drinks that are simply delicious," shares Sahil Essani, Bar Manager at MURO.

The Art of Highballs—Perfected

Highballs make a triumphant return at MURO with drinks like Coffee Pandan Rum, Burst The Bubble, and Melon Cream Soda. Using India’s first highball carbonation system, operating at -21°C, these drinks are carbonated thrice over and rested overnight, ensuring the perfect long-lasting fizz with every sip.

Zero-ABV, Full Flavor

Mocktails are a thing of the past. MURO’s zero-ABV menu brings the same creativity as its cocktails, offering layered, complex, alcohol-free drinks. A standout is The Garibaldi, featuring zero-ABV aperitif and fresh orange juice, nitro-charged for a Guinness-like silky mouthfeel.

"Cocktail culture is shifting—people want bold, savory flavors and non-alcoholic options that are just as exciting. This menu is about offering the unexpected," says Niharika Rawal, Co-Founder of MURO.

Drink Enhancers—Beyond Just Garnishes

At MURO, garnishes aren’t just for looks—they elevate the entire drinking experience. Take Sweet Chin Music, topped with lavash and creamy coconut namelaka, balancing boozy and creamy textures for a multi-dimensional sip.

This isn’t just a menu—it’s a sensory experience. Whether you're here for the mixology madness or the impeccable hospitality, MURO promises a night like no other.

 Location: MURO, Museum Road
 Weekend Only | 12 PM - 12 AM (New Menu Upstairs from 7 PM Onwards)

Wynnd Hotels, one of NCR’s emerging hospitality names, proudly unveils The Dark Room—a striking new cafe-club concept that reintroduces the pulse of authentic nightlife to Noida. Located on the 5th floor of Galaxy Blue Sapphire Mall, Greater Noida West, The Dark Room is more than just a venue—it’s a vibe.

Designed for night owls, music lovers, and adventurers, The Dark Room channels the raw energy and allure of classic underground clubs. With bold black-and-red interiors and owl motifs across its walls, the space exudes an atmosphere that is both mysterious and magnetic. It’s crafted to evoke the nostalgia of a time when stepping into a club meant stepping into another world.

“The Dark Room is our response to what nightlife has lacked,” says Gaurav Sapra, Founder of The Dark Room by Wynnd Hotels. “At one point, entering a club was like entering another universe—where the lights, the music, and the people all combined to make you feel alive. That’s the vibe we’ve brought back here. It’s a place for those seeking more than a drink—they’re looking for an experience that lingers.”

The venue is open until 2:00 a.m., making it a perfect late-night haven for those looking to unwind, groove to live music, or dance through the night. At a time when much of the city’s nightlife has shifted toward quieter cafe culture, The Dark Room reclaims the essence of high-energy clubbing.

Beyond its music and ambiance, The Dark Room is also a premium dining destination. Guests can indulge in a diverse multi-cuisine menu, offering international flavours, gourmet bar food, and comfort dishes—carefully curated to pair with the club’s exotic beverage selection. The full-service bar features super-premium spirits, seasonal blends, and creative signature cocktails and mocktails.

Whether you're there for the beats, the bites, or the buzz, The Dark Room promises a return to nightlife that’s vibrant, unapologetic, and unforgettable.
