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.

Step into the culinary world of Chef Ankur Sharma, Executive Chef at The LaLiT Chandigarh, as he brings the vibrant flavours of Southeast Asia to your plate with Bambu Bali Chicken—a Balinese classic celebrated for its rich, spicy complexity and deep cultural roots.

This dish begins with a signature Base Bumbu—a potent mix of shallots, garlic, red chillies, shrimp paste, candlenuts, and tomatoes. The ingredients are lightly roasted to intensify the aroma before being ground into a thick paste. This forms the foundation of the dish, where the chicken is seared and simmered to perfection.

Infused with Bambu Bali paste, oyster sauce, sweet soy, palm sugar, chicken stock, and coconut milk, the chicken slowly absorbs a symphony of flavours—sweet, spicy, salty, and deeply savoury. A final touch of Nam Prik Pao, a Thai chilli jam, adds a hint of smokiness and warmth that lingers on the palate.

Chef Sharma garnishes the dish with crispy fried shallots and fresh coriander, enhancing both texture and freshness. Best served with steamed jasmine or sticky rice, this preparation is perfect for a hearty meal that tells a story of tradition and passion.

“This dish captures the essence of Balinese cuisine—bold, aromatic, and soulful. At The LaLiT Chandigarh, we love introducing our guests to flavours that travel far but feel like home,” shares Chef Ankur Sharma.

With Bambu Bali Chicken, The LaLiT Chandigarh offers guests more than just food—it offers an experience steeped in authenticity and crafted with heart.
