I had come here on the Saturday before, but found it warm, interesting and flavoursome enough to come back for more. So immediately, just 3 days later, I chugged my wife along for a little lunch date at Barometer, and we were not disappointed. My wife had a lovely berry infused sangria while I had a twist on the classic mojito. We were adventurous and paired the drinks with a spicy take on Varhadi prawns with a hot chilli flavour. I'll admit, that as tasty as it was it shouldn't have been ordered with sangria nor a mojito. Then we ordered the 3 mushroom chicken, which was refreshing and flavoursome. The rosemary seasoning was perfect, although the dried rosemary pieces did tend to stick to my throat. The herbed rice was unnecessary to the dish, more of a Indian addendum to make a continental dish more acceptable. I would have probably liked another chicken piece in its stead. We finished off the meal with a classic brownie with chocolate ganache and ice cream. All in all a wonderful experience, and the best Kothrud has to offer at present.

First impressions of Barometer , near City pride kothrud.
Going to a restaurant belonged to a theater fraternity is always special. First, they know how hard people will come to them if they happen to serve something mediocre. Secondly, you are assured that even though you don't like their creation, they wont come hard to you�.

So.....
We were Khaidi no. 1805 and about to experience short term changes on our palates.
Location: situated near City pride kothrud and nestled on the corner of Siya, one more restaurant.
The restaurant is spacious and atmosphere is friendly. Old Cutlery on the walls look good but couldn't understand the purpose behind.
Food:
We ordered
1) Malaysian laksa soup: a Thai soup laden with coconut curry, chicken and noodles. Amazingly soothing and flavourful.
2) Warhadi Jhinga: Prawns done in Warhadi thecha and yes, they were spicy! But....not at all disappointing. Detailing to the highest level was very much evident.
3) Harumaki Veg: rice rolls stuffed with veggies. What an amazing dish! So simple and so beautiful! We especially loved the mushroom in it. No single vegetable was overpowering the taste of others. Highly recommended!
4) Drunken cottage cheese: soft chunks of cottage cheese. I usually don't like cottage cheese much but I loved the softness and flovours it had.
Mains:
5) Pla Rad Prik: Whole Pomfret in a chilly basil sauce. A Korean dish. We had ordered plain rice along with that as suggested by the captain. Again it was flavourful and consistent. Pomfret was fried and then dipped into the curry. But it was not at all oily. Although it was served with many finely chopped red chillies, it was not at all annoying.
6) Ghee roast mushroom: it's an Indian savoury. Skillfully stuffed mushrooms in dosa served with a white / yellowish sauce on top along with veggies on side. The aroma of Curry leaves was very much there. Although little bit on spicier side, we enjoyed this unique preparation. (A chicken variant is also available)
Frozen berry sangria: one of the best sangrias I had in Pune.
Total bill was 3386 (including taxes)(for 2)
First impression was :
lovely food but....highly expensive.
But.......
It was worth investing so much for such lovely and passionately cooked food.

An excellent place with innovative and delicious menu and excellent people running it! A must go place in Kothrud.
The ONE amazing place with extremely great ambience.. very happy vibe and lip smacking food... was looking for exactly this place to spend wonderful evenings with family and friends
First time at Barometer and floored by the wonderful service and fantastic food. Absolutely loved the ambience, perfect place to catch up with friends or a nice meal with family.
It's a great new place to go to... brilliant space sense, decor is funky enough for my taste and of course it's an absolute delight for the palate... Add to that great service and smiling personnel at the door and inside... What more could one ask for! Great initiative Mohit Takalkar and team...
Must needed breakfast place in kothrud.
My perfect omelette for breakfast search ends here :)
Best hash Browns and brown bread in town served here.
Peaceful place with great service.
one of the best place on kothrud! awesome ambiance, good quality of food !
It's my go to place when I crave for thin crust pizzas. Their barbecue chicken pizza is simply awesome and the taste has been consistent.
It's a perfect balance of spices, meat and cheese and the crust which makes it a amazing preparation.
Barometer: a savior for alll party lovers in Kothrud. A well decorated and perfect for office parties, get togethers and casual dining. The cocktails are just wow and the dishes available on the menu just soothes your taste buds . the music they play uplifts the mood and food adds to it.
Only problem that i could note is: without pre-booking ti becomes very difficult to locate a table for yourself.
Perfect place for a get-togethers. Lovely, cozy ambience. They serve a variety of food, each having a lovely taste. The quantity is also perfect, filling. In all a great experience.
Hello, Yellow Thai Curry was delicious and chicken Lebanese was yummy. Thanks Barometer team.
Nupura

I've also had loaded fries and Bombay Masala sandwich over here and both these dishes are a MUST TRY

food . 4.3
Service 4.8
Ambience 4.7
I had lebanese chicken with butter roti at Barometer in kothrud was pretty good and ambiance was also good.
It’s really wonderful that barometer is still able to deliver excellent food considering current situation....
Its a good place situated in kothrud.Can be a good option for saturday night party for ppl in this area.Chinese is good but a little pricy I would say.Ambience is elite and staff well behaved
Perfect place for weekend hangouts with friends..Nice ambience and sitting atrangements..we ordered almond brocolli soup, it was nice and creamy soup..jajangmyeon noodles were good too..and in dessert chocolate walnut brownie which was very tasty😋..and we have got friendly staff who helped us in choosing menu..you need to come early to avoid waiting time..overall superb experience!!
We had been to Barometer yesterday with a family friend. Our family friend had been to this place and suggested we order Lemon Coriander Soup, and the recommendation was certainly praiseworthy. Seating was comfortable, and staff was friendly and professional. Though it was late in the night, the staff did not rush us, and let us enjoy our evening. Would love to visit this place again 😀
I think they are so welcoming. They give you proper attention. Somewhat expensive but a great place to hang out with friends
This place is situated at perfect spot in Kothrud like not too crowded..residential area so peaceful.. less polution and good availability for vehicle parking.
And thats why many times you will find waiting here...whether its a weekday or weekend... Lunch or dinner or breakfast...
Ambiance is nice.. Service is too good..
Good options for food and variety is available.
Good to go with friends, families or couples.
Little pricy though... But you will get expected quality here.
Everything about this place is fancy and happy!
It’s always the best experience...be it food or ambience or staff!
Makes you wanna come back each time you think of dining out :)
Last morning reunion at Barometer tasted Ros omlette (omlette with chicken sausages topped with Goan curry with hash browns and slices of bread), spiced corn sandwiches and poha and unending cups of coffee (on the house)...good ambience... definitely recommend..
Barometer is an amazing place for delicious food and friendly staff. I've tried pizza, enchiladas and Lebanese chicken and all of them were great. The staff was helpful in suggesting items too. The ambience too is nice with the whole lighting and seating arrangement. A great place for dates and to hang out with friends.
The food was amazing. The Moroccan pizza was different and delicious and so was the enchiladas. The only downside was the wait to get a seat as this place seems to be crowded almost all the time. The management is quite good as they offer snacks while we wait if the waiting time is too long. I would suggest booking a table in advance before going to this place. Overall a good experience as the food seems to be worth the wait.
The food was extraordinary and the person who served us Kushal was very courteous and offered to help proactively. He suggested some good dishes which we relished. Excellent experience.
Loved service and food!!!
The Most Loved Breakfast Place In Pune For A Reason..

A very hyped place in Kothrud by Kothrudians, I was curious to try it. It sure did not disappoint. There are much better place out there, but this is worth one try for sure. Their mushroom truffle chicken was lip smacking!
Nice place to chill. Bit costly. I ordered mocktails in which snow dale is a good option. Chicken starters are good. Taste is delicious. Waiting is there on weekend but staff is very polite. Had a nice experience over all
This is an amazing place to hang out with friends or cousins. You can sit hours long chit chatting, enjoying the light music at this place. I haven't tasted any beverages except the filter coffee at this place. The best thing is you get unlimited filter coffee for free on your breakfast orders before 11 am. We had Bombay sandwiche, double cheese veg Burger, the chicken wrapped omlet and the sandwich with rajma stuffing inside. All of them were served in a really good quantity, 1 plate would absolutely fill up any optimal eaters tummy. And would be really much quantity for kids. Coming to the taste of food I rate it 3.5/5, taste of food was nothing extra ordinary and burgers did not taste that well as expected. But I must say the filter coffee was really good. Overall it was a 4/5 experience.
Have been to the place several times in the past few months. Never disappointed. Amazing food & drinks, friendly staff. 'Floating island' dessert is something unique and a must try.
Definitely one of the finest in Pune city!
Barometer is All day Fine Dine Bar located near City Pride Kothrud.
Because of their popularity their is always waiting period over weekend. This was my third attempt and luckily waiting time was less this time : around 20 mins.
Here is what I liked and that's may be the reason for popularity :
- Great Music + Lively ambience + Contemporary decor with high ceiling
- Very Prompt and attentive service
- Global & Indian Menu
I have heard lots of praise about their Ros-omlete, Kheema, Khow Suey, Pizza and Pasta. Unfortunately Ros-omlete is only available for breakfast so we ordered :
- Mutton Kheema Pav : Kheema was fatty, meaty, greasy, bit spicy and full of aroma. Made in rich kolhapuri masala : just OutStanding
- Khow suey : was disappointment. Quantity was huge, exotic vegetables but very mild in overall flavors for me. When I talked with Manager he smartly replied "This is not authentic, we have "now" tone down it as this is how our patron prefer".
One more thing I didn't like about Khow suey was they serve curry on top of noodles, our server mixed all curry and noodles. Quantity of curry was less as compared to noodles which resulted in bit dry khow suey. When I pointed it to server he mentioned "ऐसा ही रहता है".
- Baked Vanilla Cheese Cake : it was creamy, smooth with slight hints of vanilla : worth ordering..!!!
Overall : Even thought Khow suey was not upto mark for "me" but prompt service, inviting vibes and vast + interesting menu tempts me to visit this place again.
This is a great place for a nice wholesome meal! You can basically order any of their appetizers and you won't be disappointed, veg or non veg. The pizza is really nice with a thin crust and generous amount of cheese and toppings. I tried the bacon wrapped chicken and it was just amazing. This was my first time trying out bacon and I was not sure if I'd like it but this dish was really good. It was served with some mashed potatoes which had a really nice and smooth texture to it. We tried a couple of their desserts as well which were also pretty good, not mind blowing but still very good! Won't hesitate to visit again!
Have been to this restaurant several times. Have never been disappointed! Excellent food, quick service, courteous staff. Particularly liked chicken wanton soup, peri peri fish, cottage cheese florentine, nasi goreng, thai green curry. Only waiting period is a little long, particularly if you reach after 7.30 PM! But would definitely recommend it!
This place is really good. I wanted to try this place since long because I'd heard a lot about it. The service was friendly, helpful, polite and really prompt. The starter - Pad Kratiem Prik was very flavorful, the mushrooms tasted simply great and the spice level was perfectly balanced. The pasta - Evangelista Torricelli, after all we were in BAROMETER, was very tasty, a bit too creamy for pesto. The main course - Ba Bao La Jiang was a fun medley of vegetables in soy based sauce served with burnt garlic noodles, though cauliflower in it was a little strange. Overall, a really good experience.
Heard a lot about their breakfast and so decided to give it a try! The vibe of this place is amazing!! I tried their hashbrowns , cottage cheese burger, guava mocktail, cold coffee and pomegranate iced tea. The burger was tasty and coffee was perfect!
Their staff is polite and friendly but the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because there are a very few good veg food options . Otherwise, everything was on point!!
Ambience : small and not that spacious, quirky decor, gives a vibe of a NY style cafe, warm and pleasant environment.
Food :
1) mushroom melange : the most sumptuous pasta I have ever had. The pasta was cooked perfectly ( not too soggy not too Al Dante) coated with the right amount of sauce which was an appropriate balance of tangy and creamy. It was loaded with chunky mushrooms and the amount was astonishing!
2) mozzarella fritters : cheese lovers would be in awe of this finger food. Do not order if you are just 2 people, as time goes by the cheese hardens and doesn't taste that great. Best enjoyed when it's piping hot. Some people might find it bland.
3) bourn-bee - ( cocktail) a mixture of brandy whiskey and bournvita, your childhood and adulthood clubbed together! It's rather strong and some might wanna be careful. The taste is fantastic and takes care of both your alcohol and dessert appetite.
A nice place to catch up with your old buddy, have some me-time or have a cute little date. The food has my heart which is evident from the fact that I ordered the same things both the times I was there.
P.s : waiting for 1.5 hrs both the times.
Good place to have wine , food was good too
Ordered Cajun grilled fish which had a bitter taste to it, but mushroom chicken was great
Shantanu Prabhakar Kolhatkar
+4
The reason I have given 4 stars is for the cost of the food. However the taste and ambience and service which is the most important thing while we go dining are full 5 on 5.
Good place to hang out with friends as well as family. Brinjal fritters is a must so is the Thai curry. Their Thai curry is the best amongst the others I have ever tasted. A full 5 on 5 for that.
The staff is well trained and experienced full marks to them. The desk person is a bit rude I don't know if he is the owner or an employee but carries an unwanted attitude and is ignorant towards customers. A very harmful thing for the hospitality industry. Should improve
Overall experience was exceptional
Great ambience with delicious food will make you run here over and over...!!
Beautiful place
Ambience is reaaalllyyy nice
A bit expensive but quantity is satisfying
Must try chicken mustard sandwich and Cajun cottage pizzaa
Floating island one of my all time favorite drink
Must visit with friends and family ♥️
Lovely ambience n the food was awesome n specially staffs were very attentive ...one of my fav place to go with family n friends ...most recommended
One wouldn't think that a bar would also be popular as a breakfast joint... Well atleast Barometer is!
We had ordered the Barometer breakfast, paneer paratha and cheese omelette.
The Barometer breakfast came with bacon, sausages, hash browns, toast and eggs done your way.
Plus the morning faire includes all the coffee you can have which pretty much makes up for the prices!
The ambience of the restaurant is also great with soft yellow lights. An interesting fact — projector keeps displaying Charlie Chaplin movies!
The only drawback I can see with the place, is the waiting time.

A lovely ambience accompanied by delicious food... the drinks are suoer amazing and worth visiting one more time.. the great and efficient service is also very cheerful...
A fantastic ambience with perfect food, my husband was in town and I wanted to take him to a good place. Barometer came to
mind.
We ordered Hunter style meat and highly recommend it! 😃
Great taste and value for money.
This place has high ratings for all the right reasons.
I didn't visit here but ordered in.
I got a Kimchi Ramen (chicken).
First of all the quantity is quite generous. It is enough for two people and now coming to the taste, it tasted absolutely amazing. The broth was jam-packed with flavour and tasted exactly like kimchi. The chicken was juicy, very well seasoned and full of flavour.
I was extremely happy with this dish and would definitely order this again.
I would definitely like to recommend this.
First time visitor- Good ambiance, Quality food, not so crazy price, Quick service, nearby-in kothrud!(not in Koregaon park). The only thing I do not like is they do not take reservations after 7:30PM and you have to wait for 45 minutes to get in...
It's a must try place jazz food and beer.. cheers
The food is one of the finest in pune ❤️
This was hands down , one the best desserts I have had recently.
After a fulfilling lunch, you need the perfect dessert to finish your palate.And one need not be a connoisseur to know whether the dessert you have eaten leaves you wanting for more. This is exactly what i felt after trying the Chocolate Mousse at Barometer. The light, creamy yet chocolaty texture left me in awe and brought a smile on my chocolate covered lips.
Went there on a weekday for lunch. Moderately crowdy and got the table within no time.
Ambience good with dim light. We tried pasta Alfredo Veg. It was decent with good amount of white sauce and Veggies.
Then we had Farrouj Musabah, Which was continental main course. Combination of hammered chicken, saffron rice with saute vegetables. The sauce was good and tastes really nice.
Service is quick, staff is polite and cooperative. Overall good experience.
The seating is small having about 15 tables so expect we wait time on peak hours and holidays.
Quality and service is average which you get at a decent fine dine restaurant..
Great food and ambience. The Nachos are a must try. They serve a variety of food options, each one is really tasty. Avoid visiting on weekends as the waiting time is at least an hour. Overall experience is good.
Good food, good service, good atmosphere but a bit costly.
chicken pasta and blueberry cheesecake are a must try. I personally didn't like pizza that much. But otherwise food was nice.
Note: Main course is not available before 7 pm. You can have pasta pizza and all before 7.
My experience at Barometer was marked by several positive impressions. The food, with its diverse and flavorful offerings, stood out as a highlight of my stay. The culinary experience, featuring a mix of continental delights, added a delightful touch to my time at the hotel.
The location proved to be the hotel's trump card. Situated in what can only be described as the best spot, the convenience and accessibility to key areas made it an ideal choice.
Service at Barometer was commendable. The staff's attentiveness and friendly demeanor contributed to a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere.
Considering the good food, prime location, and commendable service, I would rate my overall experience at Barometer a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It's a reliable choice for those seeking a well-rounded stay with a mix of culinary delights, convenience, and excellent service.
Great place to catch up with your friends. Good service, good food and good ambience. Worth a visit.
Service was really good.
Really great cocktails.
Must try the English breakfast.
Biriyani was also good.
Everything about this place is excellent. Only problem on most occasions is finding place. It's crowded even on weekday morning and afternoon. Go early to avoid waiting for too long.
Food quality and quantity is good. You will find many continental and indian, Chinese dishes here. The taste is very good. Beautiful ambiance. Recommendable restaurant...
Great place for food + drinks. Convenient location, on the quieter side of Kothrud. I had lotus stem for the first time and the appetizer was exceptional. The grilled paneer starter was excellent. The place is noisy and the tables are close to each other. Ideal place to go with friends/family. Nachos weren’t really nachos but tasted good.
Drinks, food and service were good. Visited in the afternoon on weekday. Moderate wait time of 20 mins.
Excellent food, many signature dishes, and some of the favorites are Green Garlic Fish, Honey Chili Lotus स्टेम
Great vibes and great food! The food that we ordered was delicious and the drinks were simply amazing. Service was great and I loved everything about this place. We reached around 12:30pm for lunch which was a very smart move. Because the place gets crowded and you have to wait in line during peak hours. Hope to be back soon to try some more delicious food!!!
Amazing food. One needs to visit multiple times to try their all dishes. We tried a few starters and salads. Even the salads were delicious. Most dishes serve a person, hence place order accordingly. But you will get multiple dishes to taste. Good and prompt service.
Love the old school diner vibe with Charlie Chaplin playing on a wall with a projector. The food always tastes superb and the quality is incredible.
Great for first dates and get together. The prices are little too much for basic things but overall it's good for occasional visits. Parking can become concerning on weekends. I highly recommend to prebook a table than spawning in front of them even if it's just the two of you.
The atmosphere felt young and energetic with dim lighting.
How can I not go ga ga about this place. In my solo days here in Pune it made me eat one of the best of breakfast. Liquor served was of superior quality so was the appetisers and starters. The best of ambience with subtle audience. Such a great place to sit and enjoy the delicacies…. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
Good food with a great ambience.... staff is also polite.... food is a little bit costly but the quality is 10 on 10
Lovely Ambiance. The food is on next level. Its very hygenic and very tasty. The spices ooze out of it and is finger-licking tasty.Service is quick and waiters are very kind.loved almost everything that I had ordered and everything was cooked perfectly.
Booking in advance is advisable as this place is full even during weekdays in peak hours.Reaching before 7.30pm for dinner will not require reservation as you will get table easily.
