Earlier use to visit this place often. Last went in dec 2019. The ambience and live music is still kickass but the food prices are exorbitant and taste not up to the mark. Still this place rocks for its drinks and ambience
Love the place .. so many memories

Visited after so many years...
MUST TRY their Mutton Kathi Roll.
To anyone who has been associated with or has lived in this city, this place ought to be special.
It is not about the food or the drink, but memories which make it special. We all have come here at some point of time with friends, on dates, with cousins..
Live music and nostalgia. Can’t beat it there.
You are a music fan, go for it. Prices are costly of course. not much of variety. Best for having prechosen (fav) drink and listen music. Personally, the place was quite congested and the loud music didn't keep a happy mark on my soul !! but yes good one. Would recommend.
I had heard about this place many a times but I couldn't make it to this place until last Sunday ,so here I'm going to write an honest review. This place is amazing, the ambience is very nice, the staffs are very polite and the food is also worth appreciating.If you are an alcohol lover,and if you really want the best place to sit and enjoy then I would recommend this place surely. I had an amazing time there with one of my friends,and looking forward for more over there. In a word I'd say this place is "wow"
Been here on multiple occasions. One of the most lively and legendary bars in town. They have live music on most evenings and it is really a peppy environment with a good vibe. Do try their Beer pitcher. Their beer is awesome for some reason. Totally awesome.
However though the place isn’t too big and one complaint I have is that the music is too loud for the small space probably even harmful for one’s hearing if they stay for a long time. Even during live music sessions, the music is so loud, it’s hard to hear the vocals of the artists actually singing there. It would be very nice if they can tune it well and reduce the volume to something appropriate for the space they have.
You do get valet parking from The Park, so that is an added bonus.
Located inside the iconic Park hotel at Park Street, this cafe is the best place to chill, with live band performance and a bottle of cold beer. The fish n chips and chilli chicken were one of the best in the city. Recommend this to all beer lovers and rock music enthusiasts 👍
♥ 🖤 To be frank it was my friends who took me there for the first time when I came in the city and now I take my friends there when ever my friends steps into this city 😍
The best place to enjoy live music. This is the place to rock out. You will see the whose who of the rock music scene here. Never tried the food so can't rate. The bartenders are nice enough to entertain you all night. This is the place for music.
Can anyone tell me do we need entry fees to enter any of this bars or its just I will go n pay for the food only... I am really nervous cause it's my first time can anybody answer
This place has one highlight only and that’s the live music they have to offer like every single night !
The band plays some of the best covers ever and that’s what the hype is about surrounding this place, and the happy hours usually last all day everyday til 8 at night or so. The place isn’t too big neither too small and the drinks are pretty good. So it’s def a place you should check out if you’re in Park Street area!
25 years of spreading happiness over music and beverages. Best joint to catch up with friends and live music is a cherry on the top on the intoxication.
Perfect for a chill night out! If you’re looking for a place to sit and talk, this is not one of those. The music and atmosphere is great to let loose. I personally love coming here on Monday nights (believe it or not)
I had an amazing experience at Someplace else yesterday night. The crowd,the food ,the drinks everything was top notch. And the live music adds up the spice . It's a must visit for every party lover. ❤️
Saturday at Park are always crazy, Techoooo is what we needed last night amazing vibe and crazy music.TECHNO LOVERS hit this place , SATURDAY NIGHT is always fun here.Keep Saturday rolling SPE rocks.
i visited someplace else last night, it was a great experience and my gang loves live band so we got what we wanted right there itself. We had a great night. This is a must visit place for the people who likes live band and rock music.
I went to this place quite often. Every saturday this place serves us with psychedelic music. It makes us groove to a different music. Ambience is too good & it makes the place soothing. Management, team work, all upto the mark
Yesterday music was played by DIGITAL 7 & ASH ROY. Me and my friends enjoyed a lot. This place not only serves good music but it creates a great a different vibe serving all generation
Awesome place to hangout. Nice food,Nice ambience. Everything is perfect. Nice behaviour of the Co stuffs... Will visit there soon with our gang.
I went to someplace else for 4time .....I love the place as because I love the ambience, food drinks live band performance dance chilling out place..
Oh what an amazing place. Loved it, will rank it among the top 3 pubs in Kolkata. Superb Ambience. Great Decor. But would like to complain about the waiter, he did not guide us properly and mislead us i guess, that's why the bill was expensive. He told us he will add one Heineken in happy hours but in the bill we saw he charged two Heineken were charged. Totally unexpected. This is not expected given the reputation of the place. But other than this the experience was good. Please tell your staffs to not mislead people. These are our hard earned money. The staff was a North Eastern guy (look wise).

The live band and Ashif were the only highlight of my visit. The staff was courteous however seems pre occupied most of the time. Overall a good time with friends would not be bad. Food ordered never reached my table in the 1.5 hours that I spent which was a huge disappointment. The bar tender did provide munchies in the meanwhile but kitchen never delivered.
Ashif thank you for your help at Tantra, much appreciated.
If cool live music and drinks with your special one is on your must-haves, this place is a no brainier and gives you all. Located inside the Park Hotel premises, you are definitely gonna have a great time here. The ambiance is awesome with some wooden furniture and high bars that sets your mood right. The food needs improvement but who cares when you may have chance to see your favourite director taking sips from his drinks right next to the table of yours 😊

An absolutely fabulous experience!!! We came here twice during the 2018 Puja and and we weren’t disappointed. The food is extremely tasty and the staff are very well behaved. Those who think that everything is overpriced here, I’d like to remind you you’re not just paying for the food but the service and the ambience as well. Will come here again definitely.
Great ambiance..
We went there in happy hour so got buy 1 get 1 off on drinks
I have no idea when and on which time live music will play so we went on evening and missed live programme
A nice place with some light decor. Quality an quantity wise perfect. However, the pocket pinch is a bit on the higher side.
Polite staffs and good sery.
Good place for grooving to beautiful live music playing around you while you enjoy your drink with friends. It has got that good old pub feeling and is a perfect place to hangout with friends on a Saturday night.
Good ambience, great music. Go for it!
A historical place.....lots of bands have performed at this place....
Feels goosebumps while all memories come alive whenever I visit this place.....
Exciting atmosphere with live music. Legendary place at the park in park street area. One of the best place to offer a good nightlife.. If you like and love and live music, thia is the place to be.
The place was cozy. Had a non-existent crowd. The place was pretty hard to locate since the directions weren't clear. Had a wide variety of drinks but one thing that surprised me was the absence of Jack Daniels from the menu. They have a live music after 2100 hours, not a minute before :p
Restroom was outside the bar which kinda pissed me a little.
Small bar, contemporary setting much like the other bars on Park Street. Music sure is great. Have never been let down by the quality of bands. Place starts to come in it’s fibre post ten. The flip side of this lovely place is the cost of drinks which is higher than what it would cost at swanky five stars with good mixologists. The drinks and mixology is not in line with the prices. Stick to draught and you will be a happy man !!
they are having happy hours from 4.30 to 8.30 everyday. the offer is 1+1, so you got to give this place a try. servive is good. just one complain, the chair was squeaking get that fixed.
Good food + amazing ambiance. This is a nice place to hang out with friends while enjoying good music, although price is on a little high side... Would definitely visit again.
This is amongst the most happening places in town and has remained so over the years. However, you must get there on time to ensure a table. It gets filled up by 9:30-10pm on weekends or on days of special events. Price is on the higher side. Staff cordial and ambience top notch!
This place needs no introduction. Its a classy place with great ambience. The staff is a bit lazy. Prices are a bit on the higher side. Other than that everything is great. I had a great time at this place. Looking forward to visit this place again soon.
I was here to enjoy the Karaoke Nights by Black and White. It was an amazing experience. Talking of the food, I had Black and White, paired with Non Veg Kebab Platter and Chilly Pork.
The kebab platter had three different kebabs - Chicken, Mutton and Fish. The fish kebabs, being very soft and delicate, turned out to be my favourite. The Chilly Pork was very well cooked and went well with the drinks.
Someplace Else is my home away from home. It's not just a hangout place for me but much more than that. I have been a regular here since 2011 and I really don't feel like visiting any place other than Someplace Else. Food is awesome here. Can try out the tandoori betki and prawns. Pork chops is too good. You get a great range of drinks out here. Collection of malts is simply exquisite.
A great place to hang out with friends. Went there a lot of times. I love the environment and their music is very much relaxing. Stuffs are courteous. Overall I love this place 💜
Someplace Else will surely make you feel like you’re at someplace else, like out of the world. Lit ambience and music. Staff members are amazing too, especially Nilashish. He has some different level of charm in himself. I truly appreciate him. Loved the experience tho!
I'm new to the city and this place made me more than welcome. The service is as the name of the place. The bartender,Nilashish deserves a special mention for the prompt service despite the weekend crowds. The staff in their entirety are ever smiling and accomodating. Go here ..not for the drinks but for the ambience and the service. It truly is Someplace Else :)
My most favourite place of all the time.
I can spend hours there alone. This place gives you a old Kolkata vibe. And if you want to have a peg with great music and great ambiance then this is the place for you.
The best part-Awesome music. We went on a Tuesday and the place was buzzing. But it wasn’t to my expectations on the rest of the aspects like the seating arrangement, ambience, etc. Drinks are damn costly. Old Monk rum 30ml cost Rs 450.
Vintage pub of Kolkata I'd say. Highly priced. Not value for money though. But it's in The Park, hence the ambience is A class. When you've a live band performing, the pub's not that soundproof. Hence your ears hurt.
It was my first visit to "Someplace Else - The Park". I went there with two of my best friends and were lucky to enter the place within the Happy Hours. We ordered a Kingfisher Draught Beer and as 1 on 1 offer was on we got another Draught Beer for free. For the starters we ordered two of their Pork items but to be frank none of them were delicious rather was absolutely tasteless. The Live music was good to the ears and the ambience was good too. The place is a bit small compared to the other pubs around and a bit expensive.Overall it was a good experience and would like to visit this place again.
Last sat we went to this pub. Had a beautiful experience. Food was good. The band that played was wonderful. But one thing i can say is this is the smallest pub area wise i have encountered
This is one of the most hyped places in Kolkata. I had been there few days back. I personally loved the place, mostly because of the live orchestra sessions! The area is quite small and cosy. Their food menu is what disappointed me. There were hardly 1 or 2 starters in fish and chicken. And prices were exorbitant. So ambience wise the place is great, but beware, might burn a hole in your pocket if you drink too much😀
Enjoyed our saturday night out at this place.. The band that played late into the night was fantastic n the crowd went wild.. Excellent ambience for people with good taste in music.. Drinks are a tad bit expensive but of course it lives up to the place..wish there was more space around...
Been to this place. Hardly a place there in the pub. May be the smallest of the pubs I have come across. Music they play is fine but overall ambience isn't that the one you expect in the pub.
Very soothing decor and lovely ambience. A must visit place for music and live band. Little Expensive but worth to its Food and Drinks. Have tried Tandoori Kabab platter and Spring Fancy. The quality certainly at Top Notch.
Awesome experience whenever I am there.. filled up with good live music ... Heavenly ambience.. lip smacking Pork chops.. and obviously loads of cocktail.. i feel to go again and again..
Always vibrant & jolly!
Someplace Else never fails to make you smile!
The jazz, the chilly cheese toast,LITs & every thing about it is perfect!

I have got no words to define this place... The place from where everything started off... I really need not comment about the ambiance,the service and the food...
A great place to hangout.
Enjoyed live band performance.
Service was great. All type of drinks are available there.
Go and enjoy with friends. you mast try taquila there.
someplace else is that sweet spot between clubs and restobar.
it still is a marquee destination for live music aficionados and serves a wide variety of poison to choose from
it gets a bit claustrophobic and almost a speakeasy as the night progresses but it's charming nonetheless
someplace else IS something else!
Classic and Evergreen for a booze with your mates. And the Goto for Draught in town. Weekends are a catch and you might never fall short visiting again.
Cheers.

The park always stuns me with its celebratory mood. Right from when I enter through the narrow door of the street, where one or two bouncers stand and interact casually. Be it that musical pub someplace else or any banquet buffet , I have always been overwhelmed by their friendly attitude. Despite being a star hotel, its warm intimacy greatly helps customers like me ,my curiosity and my appetite and thus it has been possible for me to explore the place little bit.
Someplace Else is a night pub on the ground floor in the park hotel. Live band with beers or cocktails is extremely enjoyable at dinner time or even at 1 am. Irresistible for college goers and the people of young generation. There is a separate smoking chamber inside the pub which is always full of those who love being nocturnal. It is an ideal chamber for taking a short break from loud music
and to meet some stranger where people from different places around the country can be traced. The allure of this night would be further enhanced if one could visit the pool side with a beer bottle in hand for half an hour. I have been at this pub quite a few times. First few experiences will take someone to just another world.

Went out with my friends for the first time... Definitely expensive!!!! The decorations was amazing...the groovy live music compensates.. Food is decent.. Classic beautiful decorations ..and the barbecue was fantastic.. Staffs are very courteous and hospitable.... Superbbbbb cool ambience and atmosphere to hangout with friends...
The cozy corners and the mesmerising music will make you drool over the drinks..
The highlight of this place is the bands playing live music evening starting around 10.30 PM every day..
You might feel a bit cramped up for space but that should not matter once you're a couple of shots down.. As for the food it's again not a bad deal... Loved it.. We had been during the happy hours where there was one is to one on cocktails and other drinks..
Overall this place is a bit high on price but worth all its facilities... I wanna visit again!!!
Love love ❤❤❤❤
I can't describe the experience in words. It was just awesome with my family. And the barbecue was amazing. Staffs are very courteous and hospitable. The decor was amazing. And our suit was just wonderful. Loved it. I wanna visit again.
Music is the soul of Someplace Else! It is simply and just wonderful, accompanied by great food and perfect blend of cocktails! A must visit place in Kolkata!
Visiting this joint since my school days, never ceases to amaze me in terms of music and ambience. Decor is classy and cool. Chilled beer always available. Like the crowd as well. One of the most chilled out places in the city.
My favourite place to chill. It’s one of the oldest and most reputable pub in Kolkata, nevertheless it always lives up to it’s name, truly it’s “someplace else”. Especially the bbq pork sausage, bbq pork chops and the spatchcock mini burger tastes heavenly.
Went out with my friends for the first time. The ambience is too good. The food is average. Considering all these, price is also not tha high. They organise or play good collection of banda and songs.
Definitely expensive! But the groovy live music compensates. Food is decent but the ambience is what draws people. It's always empty on weekdays, and it might end up feeling like a private performance by the band in an empty room!
Luxurious & sophisticated..as expected from The Park.
Ambience & decor.. was a lit.
The classic decor coupled with scintillating performance from live bands make this one of the oldest pubs in Kolkata a hotshot. Last Sunday I visited this place with my friend . It was a ladies night. The rocking crowd and brilliant live perfomance from the band Nucleus made this place electrifying. Been there a number of times. One of my favorites pub in Kolkata.
Decor and ambience :
Classic and beautiful decor. Live band performance happens. But we didn't witness it as we were too early for it.
Drinks:
We had been during the happy hours where there was one is to one on cocktails and other drinks. We opted for sangria which tasted great.
Budget :
A little expensive.
The upbeat music, the gratifying ambience and the electricity of the place never fails to impress you. This is the kind of place you get hooked onto. Though the food and the drinks are overpriced, you won't really complain once you be there.Mit Roy
Situated on the basement of park hotel this place provides some nice cozy ambience with live music performances. Been there many time to enjoy the live bands with friends. The cocktails are good but are expensive which is quite expected. Food served is also quite overpriced so better stick to simple stuffs to accompany the drinks. Their is a separate smoking room with seating arrangement for smokers. Overall a nice place to enjoy the ambience with friends.
Live gigs, good ambience, good location, valet , good food , plenty of choices for drinks, friendly service. One of the good places in Kolkata. Hard to get in on weekends but it's worth the wait.
Best place to hear live music in Kolkata from 10 pm to 2 am. No entry fees. A pint beer cost 500/- but it's worth it. A awesome experience to be here where you could listen to your favorite Western music (Pink Floyd, Eminem, Bryan adams, Linkin Park,one republic). Please visit this place if you are in Kolkata.
Must visit place for all the music lover. Sometimes they have bands playing live. Of course the food is good. The ambience is perfect. Will keep visiting 😊
It is one of the best places around Pak street and it is inside the hotel The Park. The lights, the foods and the ambience is perfect for a occasional chitchat with your buddy, a perfect relaxing zone around Central Kolkata.
Been there a many times for live performances, as a friend of mine performs here with his band called "Rigmob". Great ambience, alcohol prices are a little high. Haven't tried out the food yet. Overall a good experience as I am a pretty regular
Someplace else! Well, it was just mind blowing!
We had charcoal smoked lamb and pork chops which was delicious. I personally didn't like the coriander and chilli crusted chicken! It was not like what I expected. Prices are quite high! But, it justifies the quality of food and the atmosphere prevailing there!
AMBIENCE - this is the only thing that will make you think to revisit it often. It was mesmerizing! A perfect party night with live loud music booming the entire dance floor! Luxurious and sophisticated are the best two adjectives that can describe it.
I will of course recommend it, but, at the same time for students its not possible for everyone to afford, so in that case, take up your family!
I believe, enjoying is something that won't restrict your people-selection!
Go and have a crazy party night!
Comfortable place with wide range of shots, cocktails and lot more. Magical bar tender along with a dope dj i forgot his name 😑 each song he played that day was hitting every strings of the good old memories...
This pub is part of the The Park Hotels at Park street. The decor is kinda Irish bar with lot of wood used. They have live band performances as well not sure if they keep it all 7 days. Live music is performed by all big bands, last I had witnnessed Ehsaan and Lot playing.
Amazing atmosphere and fun
Nice nice ;)
Nice ambiance. A bit like an old school. Nice vibe. When the evening turns into night slowly, the music gets louder and louder that you can't even listen to the person sitting beside you. Otherwise it's recommend. It is inside the The Park. Got some cheap Bira beer in an happy hour. The service is also good. Crowd is nice too.
Best pub in the city. And also I like the atmosphere and live music shows. Having beer in front of counter along with live music is just hot knife on top of butter. It's not someplace else, this the place. Must visit and try the park special pizza and wing fry.
I always look for one bar in each city which is made of pure vibes, Someplace Else is the ine for Kolkata. Great selection of spirits, good beer and fantastic music. Will be back next time I'm in town.
As the rating suggests.. it’s an amazing place for retro music and old vibe but service on food is very slow and drinks are a bit overpriced. Worth visiting though.. especially during libe music time
Good place for enjoy the evening with music and booze hand. Food are expensive and alcohol too. Food quality and taste is quite good. Many days some band perform there so you can enjoy the evening. Ambiance of the bar is fantastic. Overall place is good. Post covid they are keeping the place hygienic. Use of sanitizer for hand wash and disinfect the table on your arrival.
Great place to visit when you are in Kolkata. The vibe of the place is amazing and the live music is too good. The drinks with happy hour and food is nice as well. Must visit.
This place is adjacent to the park hotel.. The ambience is ok ok... Nice place to have a couple of drinks and chill. The place is small.. No dance floor.. Staffs are friendly.. Music is good. They have live performances also generally starts around 9:30 pm. They have nice collection of alcohol.. They need to improve on the quality of menu cards cause the writings are next to impossible to understand thanks to the dim lightings.. They can accommodate at max 40 people and the smoking zone is very small.. Restrooms are outside of the pub.. Food quality is good but very much overpriced. Happy hour timing is from 5 to 8:30 pm. Overall experience was good..
Great vibe for the people who prefer rock music genre, great staff there, some awesome cocktails and spirits. The guy Rahul is a gem, asks for your preference everytime and crafts the drink beautifully.
Went for early evening drinks with a friend and wanted not so crowded place with good ambience. It was exactly the same for our linking.
The music was 20 years old, menas not so old :)
Staff were very friendly and helpful and too our surprise we were in happy hours(until 8.30 pm on Saturday) so got our complimentary free drinks as well.
It's normally a very nice place to watch some awesome bands play and perform live.
Do check beforehand who will be playing and normally always expect a 30-40 minutes delay from the time they advertise.
The drinks are quite expensive. So if you are here only for the pub experience, it will cost you. But if you are here for live performance, the ambience doesn't disappoint.
....had few of my best experiences here,.... in terms of live rock bands playing & the ambience. Though expensive but it's worth spending here.
This is perfect place for date night or just to spend a quality evening with friends. A posh restaurant with tasty food and beverages. I loved it
This is the place where you should go if you really need to relax after a hard day's work. One of the upscale watering holes at Kolkata with live music, great drinks and delicious food from the kitchens of The Park.
Awesome ambience, good food and the live music performances are too good. The pub does not have much space, recommend visiting on a not so crowded day.
Cozy decor and a pleasant atmosphere, though the music, whether live or not, is way too loud.
