Drift sits above The Orangery at Nilaya Anthology, transitioning from morning coffees and breezy brunches to twilight cocktails and candlelit dinners. Drift brings European-style café sensibilities, an ingredient-forward menu, in a design-led space which reflects Mumbai’s evolving dining culture.

Our Story

SPACE

Designed for relaxation, conversation, and connection, the space sets the tone for the day as it gently transitions from easy mornings to lively evenings, when it becomes a chic bar for after-work catch-ups. On select nights, a DJ takes over, setting the mood.

FOOD

Our menu is a mosaic of comfort and curiosity. From an all-day breakfast to exciting large-plates that balance familiarity with refined technique. A large pâtisserie section, sandwiches, burgers, and hot dogs, and a lot more are available throughout the day.

DRINKS

The drinks blur the lines between kitchen and bar, reimagining classics with a distinctive, contemporary edge. The all-day coffee bar adds another layer to the experience, with a dynamic range of brews and preparations.
