Delhi, it’s time to rejoice and stop turning green with envy every time your friend from Mumbai mentions how cool ‘The Bar Stock Exchange is,’ because the capital finally has a good enough reply- that too right in the heart of the city.

The city’s version of the stock exchange bar has been christened ‘Café Dalal Street,’ (aptly named after the street in Mumbai where all the action takes place) and is conveniently located in Connaught Place.

The owners Vidit Gupta, Himanshu Gupta, Prateek Kochar and Gurcharan Singh came up with the idea for the resto bar after realizing how there is a death of good drinking places in the city- which also boast of an innovative concept.

Living up to its name, the prices of the drinks at Café Dalal Street, which opened its doors to the public recently, rise and fall as per the demand and supply- replicating the workings of shares.

Thus, expect screens showing the decreasing or increasing prices of drinks, allowing patrons to invest or order accordingly. That’s not all, similar to the stock market, the market here also crashes, as a result of which one can enjoy exquisite drinks at throwaway prices.

Once you’ve made your way through the dimly lit staircase to enter the massively lit room, pick any drink off the CDS Exchange (which lists all the drinks on the menu). The TV screens plastered above your table will be your aide in keeping a strict check on the status of the drink.

Alternatively, you can also download the Dalal Street App and use it to monitor the price fluctuations of every drink and sneakily place an order when the price is at an all-time low.

P.S- Be alert to spot when the market crashes and be rewarded with dirt-cheap drinks!

Sounds great, doesn’t it?

Looks like it’s time to ditch the boring usual haunts to grab a beer and trade drinks, not shares at this stock exchange bar, then.
