Looking for a cool place for drinks and small bites?? Or for chilling with friends over weekends?? Then, Vintage is the right place for you. The place is located in viman nagar near HHI hotel. It a small cozy place with finger food and bar bites. The menu also reminds of vintage food which is rarely found nowadays. I went for dinner and had the following, ***Mocktails*** 1. Guava Riya – This was a Mocktail which had a base flavor of guava. Nicely presented. 2. Apple Tini – A martini drink based on apple flavor. It had chopped apple pieces in it. I really loved this drink. Basically a Mocktail. ***Chakna Menu*** 1. Potato and Chick Pea Salad – This was a nice chakna dish which had boiled a finely chopped potato, mixed with chickpea topped with lemon and green chilli. I personally loved this dish. 2. Chinese Bhel – Chinese Bhel made from deep-fried noodles. Properly mixed chili sauce as well as tomato sauce. Mixed with finely chopped veggies like cabbage, spring onion topped with lemon and peanut. 3. Cone of Bhel – I know you all love roadside Bhel, but getting it in hotel like this is difficult. Vintage serves the same authentic Bhel in a paper cone which gives the feel of roadside Bhel. Properly mixed ingredients and little spicy 4. Veg Tandoori Momos – I had the best tandoori Momos here. Properly stuffed and you can sense the taste of tandoor in it. Served with chopped veggies and green chutney. A must have. 5. Stuffed Veg Kochi Paratha – Basically, a traditional paratha which had a stuffing of potato and paneer in it. Served in form of big pieces. The dish had dry potato curry, served with chopped veggies and green chutney. Overall the taste was good, medium spicy, 6. Sombousek Creamy Spinach – This was something new that I tried. Basically, this was shaped in the form of samosa. The outer layer was made from white dough and had a stuffing of cream and spinach. Served with chopped veggies and had a total of 5 pieces. I really liked the taste of this. 7. Veggie Naan Pizza - This was typically flatbread with toppings. This type of flatbread has become a trend in Pune and trust me this was the best I had. The flatbread had chopped veggies over it as a topping and topped with mustard sauce. Perfect in taste. The service was good and also the dish was VFM. Best of luck to Vintage Team. Would love to visit this place again. PS: This place serves both veg and non-veg food.

Vintage is located in Viman Nagar. I’ve found a new place to chill with my friends and family. Vintage has a chilled out vibe and is an ideal place to unwind after long hours of work. The menu comprises of bar bites and drinks which are VFM. Now without any further ado let’s see what all I had : 1. Peanut Masala – Give me peanuts and you have my heart… Hahaha. I kind of love chakhna and these are amazing. 2. Cone Of Bhel – Jhaal muri anyone? Loved the concept of serving it in a paper cone to give it that feel that as if you are eating at a roadside thela. The bhel was excellent even though we had it when it went all soggy (If I would have eaten it right away then wouldn’t have got the lovely picture! 3. Potato & Chickpeas Salad with Lemon Citrus Jus –  Boiled potatoes tossed with chickpeas, coriander and spices was lovely. It had that homely touch to it. 4. Chinese Bhel – Chinese bhel is something I love and have had it at quite a few places in Pune but I’ve not seen any place giving it at such a cheap price. It is definitely VFM and worth a try. 5. Stuffed Chicken Kochi Paratha – Bomb stuff!! The paratha was made so well and the filling in it is amazing. Also the portion size is huge. Just go and try and thank me later. 6. Chicken Tandoori Momos – Momos are true love and uspe se agar tandoor mein dale ho toh kya baat. A must must must try at Vintage. 7. Tartar Fish Fingers – Crispy fish fingers come with a tartar sauce. The sauce goes really well with the fish fingers and mind you these weren’t oily or greasy at all. 8. Flatbread – Their flatbread is the best! But somehow in my case I liked the veg one better. The toppings on the veg one were way better than the non veg. Overall, Vintage is great place for bar bites and booze. Plus the ambience is an add on 😀 A big thank you to Team HHI and Jasleen for inviting and being such amazing hosts. Wish this baby all the best! #jerlynfoodfanatic

Vintage has a quite different ambience with water below the floor & one side of the wall with different lights ! The place is poorly lit but loved the high chair seating & the fact that plants are included in the decor ! Drinks : Appletini Russian White Blue Lady Watermelon mocktail Appletini & Russian White were both vodka based cocktails & both were quite strong ! The appletini had a prominent sweet taste while Russian white had dairy & chocolate flavours to it. Blue Lady & watermelon were both mocktail with really refreshing taste & eye pleasing colours ! The blue Lady had a subtle sour taste while watermelon had the peculiar fruity watermelon taste. Bar Bites : Cone Of Bhel Couldn't stop munching on this ! Served in a cone this bhel had very element in the right quantity ! It had the perfect amount of spice & crisp elements made it outstanding 😋 #HighlyRecommended Naan Pizza : Non veg Drizzled with beautiful mayo the naan pizza was loaded with cheese ! I loved the juicy chicken chunks which tasted just amazing with the cheese ! Sambousk Chicken The softest & fuffiest starter ever ! This was just like a momo which has a really fluffy outer layer with minced chicken inside. Really unique & loved the presentation too ! #HighlyRecommended Stuffed Kochi Paratha : Non Veg I liked the raw serving style & the taste was just unforgettable ! The spices were so bang on & chicken was blended in these flavours so properly that each bite was a delight ! 😍 #HighlyRecommended Odobo Chicken Wings : These were as good as they looked ! Medium spice level & perfect balance of sauce 😋 Just couldn't stop at one ! Chicken Tandoori Momos : BEST TANDOORI MOMOS EVER ! Hands down these were the best tandoori momos I have ever tried ! The tandoori masala was so appealing & I wouldn't share even a piece with anyone !

Friday night done right with some interesting chakna and Vintage Sips and Bytes. Pocket friendly liquor prices and limited yet diverse menu of chakna and side orders to help it down. Food- Moving away from a routine order of beer and hard drinks we decided upon ordering from their 18 classic cocktail menu. Cosmic, Cosmopolitan and Bloody Mary to start with. To help us with these classic ones the obvious first choice was Masala peanuts. Salsa or Masala with the peanuts is our favourite for any liquor combo, be It beer, whisky, rum or cocktails. The chef also interested us to try there Potato and Chickpeas salad with lemon cilantro jus. Chickpea or Harbare in Marathi with lemon zest is a simple yet delightful combination must try. Being a fairly large group we decided to present ourselves with the best of the new chakna items the place had to offer. Nanza Veg- This was the best chakna according to us for the evening. Being a purely non vegetarian person Veg Nanza wasn’t my first choice. But the green chutney topped with cheese and corn were delicious. The taste was so good that we would recommend this dish over others. Non veg Nanza- Make sure you consume this Indian style chicken pizza before it gets cold. Far from the glory of its veg compatriot Non veg Nanza is a juicy chicken option especially for non-vegetarians. Sambousek Chicken and Odobo Chicken wings- Wrapped like a momo this is a classic Bengali themed dish stuffed with Chicken. It is served with spiced Hummus and mayonnaise. Odobo chicken wings are our regular buffalo wings styled dish with a hint of change in the sauce. Stuffed Kochi paratha- This stuffed paratha comes in both veg and non veg variant. Kerala or Malabar style paratha is stuffed with either chicken or pan seared potato and cocked in coconut oil. This dish can definitely help you get stuffed. Tandori Chicken Momos- Steamed moms are legendary… and here come tandoori Momos to overpower them. You don’t need schezwan sauce or mayonnaise with these one. Like the tandoori chicken they are good to go on their own. You won’t stop at one. Tartar fish finger and Chinese bhel- Soft and crispy fish fingers with mayo veggy dip is a light protein rich dish ( thanx to the British) which very Non veg lovers rarely missies out on. The combo of fish fingers, the mayo dip and beer works smoothly. Chinese bhel on the other hand like a typical chat item packs loads of flavours. Topped with peanuts the fried noodles bring a punch of flavours with every bite. Service- Being a Sip and Byte joint the ideology is to chill with friends on a lazy evening or catch a quick beer with your colleagues post a hectic day. Hence the service needs to be fast and so is the service at Vintage. Most of the food items on the menu take less time to prepare as most don’t need cooking of any sorts and reach your table swiftly. Ambiance- Dark ceilings, dark corners, lit walls and fountains and water springs on all sides is a comforting setup for an evening. With the Sepia lights and the wooden furniture the vintage theme sets the mood right. Overall- The idea behind naming the place Vintage was not primarily to have a Vintage fell but to provide Vintage rates on liquor and cocktails. And this place delivers on that promise. To sum it up, Vintage Sip and Bytes is a pocket friendly place to enjoy and destress with few drinks and snacks post a long week.

Pizza naanza is an amazing dish which was loaded wish fresh veggies and loads of shredded cheese... It was presented in a beautiful way on a plank of wood which shaped like a badminton.. 4.5/5 for food that .5 would be added with just a small suggestions to add some little things more to the menu.. Now lets come to the Bar it has full range of bar, having a variety of options, amongst which i tried was Apple Tini, Blue lady, P2 Tails.. Hereby give 5/5 for the bar.. 3rd Ambience, Ambiance is just too beautiful, cool ,calm and peacefull, it has indoor closed air-conditioned seating as well outdoor seating open, covershed for rainy season besides having an artificial full wall of waterfall, with soothing music being played in the background really gives the place 4.5/5for the ambiance..

Vintage - *New place alert* Vintage is a place opened in Hotel Hindustan International, Viman Nagar. Surrounded by companies and corporate residents this place is delightful for people staying out there. A small little place with outdoor, high chair seatings and simple interiors and peaceful waterfall makes this place more attractive. The good music vibes around totally make this place Perfect for a date. Pretty good for corporate outings too. It is coming up with a concept of sip and bites so they are serving drinks, cocktails, and mocktails at a great deal and prices along with quick bites. Well, 'Daru ke Sath chakhna toh Banta hai Bhai' Necessity, isn't it? They have amazing quick bite options along with drinks that will definitely make your day. Everyone expects those desi bites with drinks to satisfy your wants. They have *Peanut masala* *Roasted Papad* *Cone of Bhel* *Cone of Bhel Puri* *Potato and Chickpeas salad with cilantro jus* *Bhajiya Platter* *Garlic Bread* *Chinese Bhel* *Naan Pizza* Recommended I had their veg naan pizza. It's an in-house creation of chef @vintage_hhi you can choose your choice of toppings. It was Delectable. You can also make your own chaats like Papdi, Pani Puri, and aloo tikki. Stuffed Kochi paratha- Served with mint chutney, laccha salad & Pan-seared potato. Tastes good. The management is good. The staff is courteous. They have offers and discounts for corporates around. Go grab them now. *Cheers*

Cost for 2 -₹1150 I would prefer sitting home than going there. To begin with idk why would they give 3 menu cards. The snacks are so limited - the basic snacks like bhel and Chana. We ordered for nachos- Omg Wat a WASTE! Literally counting it had 10 tortilla chips. With maybe 1/4th of cheese cube? Worst nachos I ever had. Better to buy Nachos at home rather. 2- Chicken Thai curry and rice- chicken and mushrooms over cooked, the curry is very watery. It costs 550 but serves only one, literally had to come home and have food again! And had 3 glasses of beer - thankgod for the beer to keep us alive there. It’s Absolutely WASTE OF MONEY! Idk why the waiters keep waiting at your table it’s just so uncomfortable. Even if you go please order the starters way before your drink or you might end up finishing your drink but wouldn’t get to eat! This is the worst review I have written till date!

An obnoxious place that gives out a funeral vibe. The menu on Zomato is different than the one which is actually used. Ordered 1 beer and 1 starter. Most of the items on the menu weren't available. The staff wasn't really bothered that a customer had to wait 40 mins for a starter. It was okay though. The worst feature was the ambience. It will suck the life out of your soul. I spent 1 hour in that place. I want the 1 hour back.

Pathetic service. The person attending was not able to understand anything. When asked him to get manager he disappeared. Waiting for fries for almost half an hour. When fries finally came all Burnt. You could taste that burnt oil. It was worst. Quantity again not worth. Worst experience.visited first time and 1st impression last impression. Never coming again.

Pathetic service. Got served flat coke with the drink.. and on complaining got the coke can.. and was told the price (as though we cannot afford it). Rubbish service and over priced place. Do not recommend.
