  Starting with the manager, when we entered the restaurant looking for table, the manager from behind came making a weird sound “shuuuuuk shuuuuuk” which was very annoying. Then he said ‘ ‘we don’t have table and asked to sit in the lounge’. Didn’t know where that was, should have asked Casanova to find it.The place was very dead and people too. All the tables were like dead with no smile on faces or people have great time. Music was playing though in the background but could not light up the environment.Looked more like a place for old retire people who wants to spend time drink and eating food without talking to anyone.Apart from the food was good and service too apart from the manager. Just the happy environment was missing.

  Been to this place yesterday along with friend and his mom , happy hours was going on 15% off on entire bill – We Ordered some beer and chakna they served was tasty, Chicken platter – there were three types of boneless chicken pieces loved them and the quantity , one was spicy , second was with green chutney and last one was baked idk which flavour.Veg chowmen- the gravy was the one we get in corn soup , no spices only salt . And the noodles with vegetables. I didn’t liked it . Because I like the food spicyTomato soup- just like any other place. Bread chunks served were enough :DThis space is very peaceful and spacious . I like drinking and visiting to such places where you can just chill and no dhandhan sounds at all . I found beer expensive because they charged 270 bucks for single kingfisher strong which was not expected in restro bar .

  This is one of those old iconic places of Pune which are run out of old buildings giving it a nice heritage feel. It is set amidst vast greenery which makes it hard to believe that you are in the heart of the city. They only serve beer I guess and food is also good. Service also has “heritage” feel to it 😉

  Review No 501: Catching up with old friends is always a great experience. And catching up with friend in the company of good food and a set up makes it even the better. We happened to meet up in the Camp area and as this place has some history as far as back as my friends were concerned, we decided to camp here for the evening to relive their memories of the place, our crazy work experience etc. The first thing that hits you when you see Grand is that it’s still old school and still draws its patrons. I could tell because whoever walked in mostly knew the staff and were acknowledged. Ambience: They have a small setup inside which we did not look much into. We decided to camp outside (with the roof) with the nip of the winter showing up in the evening Pune air (don’t you just love when that happens). With a very basic setup of a few chairs and tables, they had additional furniture ready to put up in the open (close to the kitchen). They had some good 80s music playing on the night we visited which was a welcome change sometimes from the EDM and house music. Good to break the monotony. What did we order? a. Tandoori Chicken: The quintessential dish to have when you are seated in an open area with a great weather. The meat was cooked well and served piping hot. Also on another topic, even though they serve only Beer in Grand, it good to see they keep the chakna rolling in…including our request for chips. b. Chicken 65 Dry: Spicy with loads of juicy Chicken pieces, this was appreciated by everyone as well. c. Chicken Lollypop: Nothing out of the ordinary dish which took a bit to come but was decent. The dish had a total of 8 pieces. d. Chicken Reshmi Kebab: True to its name, we felt the preparation of the meat was slightly off but palatable. Service: We were looked after well. Not a single moment did we have to seek attention. The boy did a good job. In the midst of all the talking, I forgot to ask him his name. Price: The prices are indeed VFM so no qualms there. To sum up the experience, this place has history with the folks who I know for a long time. The place does exude an old-world charm (which unfortunately I do not see in the part of the Pune I reside in) and definitely needs 0.5 points extra for the same. It’s an aggregate of the place, food and service for me at the Grand hotel. Here’s the rating thus far: Food: 3/5 Price: 3.5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambience: 3.5/5 ***************** Overall: 3.5/5 (Implied rating of 4 as Zomato does not allow for decimal ratings anymore).
