BREAKFAST WITH A HISTORY

People like cliches for a good reason. Mumbai’s iconic Leopold Cafe & Bar is a case in point. Serving patrons since 1871, the cafe is far from fancy and draws people with its old-school vibe: cloth-lined square tables, vintage wall hangings such as that of the Coca-Cola logo, and quotes from

The Godfather, among other things. Minutes from the Gateway of India, the cafe opens as early as 7:30 am, and serves Indian, Continental, and Chinese dishes. You can also gulp beer for breakfast, if you feel like it.
