Travelers around the country believe that Pune has a relaxed vibe about it and I realized how absolutely right they were when I experienced the city first-hand. Everything from the weather to the traffic beautifully syncs in this city. After spending a couple of lovely days in Pune, I decided to explore its nightlife since I had heard so much about the pubs and lounges here. While I could only explore the nightlife for 2 nights, I was able to pick some of the must-visit pubs in Pune:

1. Social, Pune
Social | #1 of 9 Best Dance Pubs in Pune
Social has taken most metro cities by storm for its unique and casual mood. Easy yet sophisticated, Social is typically known for its hospitality, music, and ambience. With plenty of daylight flooding in, the place is spacious and offers an outdoor seating area which is one of the best in Pune. Their concoctions of drinks are great and their food menu is elaborate with tons of options to choose from.
The music here is upbeat and adds to the charm of the pub. If you are in the mood to shake a leg, head here after 9 pm as the place picks up tempo then. Social might not be cost-effective for everyone but works well if you plan to visit it once in a while.

1000 Oaks | #3 of 9 Best Dance Pubs in Pune
In one word, the ambience of 1000 Oaks is captivating. Reminding you of the beach town of Goa, the restaurant has an arresting outdoor seating and an equally welcoming indoor seating. Personally, I felt the outside ambience was one step ahead, however, if you are looking for an intimate experience, choose to sit indoors. With great music and delicious food, this is a brilliant option for a night out packed with dancing or for simply unwinding.

The House of Medici | #7 of 9 Best Dance Pubs in Pune
Say hello to The House of Medici which was earlier known as Kue Bar. With its new identity, the revamped nightclub shines in thoughtfully done interiors and a vibe that is unmatched in Pune. The DJs here generally are the pulling force for party animals as they play some exceptional music. Drastically distinct from most pubs, Medici’s lighting and ambience add to the charm of the place rather than disrupting the vibe. The prices are definitely on the higher side and may not suit you if you are looking to make it a regular haunt. For special occasions, this one definitely tops the list.

Oh, and all you Bollywood lovers, make your way to this place since it hosts Bollywood nights as well. Area 51 is mainly popular for its electrifying sound system, and perhaps one of the best in Pune.

9. Teddy Boy, Pune
Teddy Boy | #9 of 9 Best Dance Pubs in Pune
If the name of this pub doesn’t interest you, the rumors of its fantastic rooftop bar definitely will. For me, it was perhaps the best rooftop setting with a comforting vibe and absolutely lovely service. On Wednesdays and Fridays, you are in for a special treat since they have a separate closed dance floor which sets a perfect upbeat mood. Entry here is free, and so, it fits everyone’s pockets perfectly. Do try this place on a Friday since weekends tend to get over-crowded here. Read also about places to visit in Pune
