An evening at one of the oldest Kolkata pubs

10 Downing Street, one of Kolkata’s oldest and most iconic pubs, has always had a certain charm. But this time, my experience felt different—I finally got the chance to sit upstairs in their exclusive lounging area. And let me tell you, it was nothing short of impressive. The moment I stepped in, I felt transported. The décor was incredibly posh, with rich wooden interiors, dim yet elegant lighting, and an old-world charm that almost made it feel like a British pub. The setting was refined, yet cozy—perfect for unwinding over a few drinks. As always, the vibe at 10 Downing Street was lively, with great music and an energetic crowd. It’s a place where time seems to slow down, allowing you to truly soak in the experience. Whether you’re there for a casual drink or an elaborate evening, this pub never disappoints. For a place that has stood the test of time in Kolkata’s pub scene, 10 Downing Street still manages to exude class and exclusivity. Sitting in the upstairs lounge made the evening feel all the more special, and I can’t wait to return for another round of great drinks, good conversations, and that signature vintage charm.
