Nido’s menu brings a fusion of South Indian and Continental flavors, paired with creative twists. Signature dishes include the Konjee Crispy Lamb, Mountain Chili Stir Fry Chicken, and indulgent Noodle Bowls. The bar menu enhances the experience with floral-infused cocktails, refreshing mocktails, and an extensive selection of draught beers, all curated to complement the venue’s vibrant ambiance.

Created by Studio 8 Architects in collaboration with Bondasoup Art Studio, Nido’s design reflects its “nest” concept. Key features include a canopy ceiling crafted from lantana twigs, sourced ethically from rural Karnataka, and terrazzo flooring that adds a touch of elegance. The semi-retractable roof provides a versatile environment, while custom-designed cutlery and natural materials complete the aesthetic.

We wanted to offer Hebbal a rooftop destination that combines craft cocktails, exceptional food, and artistic expression. It’s not just a bar—it’s a cultural hub for relaxation and connection.”

Adding to its appeal, Nido features live music and weekend DJ nights, making it a vibrant addition to Bangalore’s F&B scene. Its ambiance, complemented by stunning skyline views, ensures memorable moments for visitors.
