Do pubs in Nagpur serve orange juice?
I thought I’d start with a joke. Nagpur…famous for oranges…non-alcoholic beverage in a bar….get it?
Ok, I may be bad at telling jokes, but I am definitely good at telling you all about the top pubs in Nagpur. And, I am going to prove it with this list.
Nagpur is not really one of the must visits on India’s tourist trail, but it does have some interesting elements. For starters, it is the literal ‘dead center’ of India, geographically speaking, and the city has a Zero Mile Stone that indicates the point! It is the starting point for several reserves and wildlife parks like Pench Natural Park and the Andhari Tiger Reserve. It is also really, really famous for the oranges grown here, earning it the epithet of Orange City. And if you thought that’s about all that’s exciting about the city, go through our water parks in Nagpur as well as our Nagpur Pub lists to be proven wrong.
