Bengaluru : Church Street has a vibrant new addition to its dining and nightlife landscape with the launch of PIXI, a new restaurant, bar and taproom that brings together globally inspired food, inventive cocktails and a curated craft beer program in a lively neighbourhood setting.
Designed as a space that evolves with the rhythm of the day, PIXI spans approximately 13,500 Sq. Ft. and accommodates 250 guests. The venue transitions seamlessly from relaxed lunches and casual catch-ups to after-work drinks and energetic evenings, combining the comfort of a neighbourhood hangout with the scale and ambition of a destination venue.
The culinary program has been conceptualised by Chef Kartikeya Ratan, whose approach is rooted in bold flavours, technical precision and a strong sense of familiarity. The menu features a wide-ranging selection of dishes that are approachable, flavourful and ideal for sharing, making PIXI equally suited for intimate dinners, group gatherings and spontaneous visits. Signature highlights include the Beijing Pulled Lamb Bao, Seafood and Chives Thai Curry Dumplings, Truffle Mushroom Flatbread and the Spanakopita. The all-day experience is further enhanced by a playful coffee menu featuring creations such as the Affogato with Salted Caramel Popcorn, Matcha Cold Foam Iced Latte and Parle G Cold Coffee.
The cocktail program at PIXI balances creativity with accessibility, complemented by an extensive taproom selection that caters to both craft beer enthusiasts and cocktail lovers. Standout cocktails include the Namma Grown-Up Glow, Indiranagar Plot Twist, Sappe Drama Free Night and Aye You Only, No?, along with shareable cocktail pitchers such as Midnight Bloom and Rosé Botanica.
The design language of PIXI reflects its central philosophy of connection and togetherness. The space has been designed by WDA, the award-winning architecture and interior design studio known for creating some of Bengaluru’s most distinctive hospitality destinations. Warm earthy tones, circular forms and expressive visual elements come together to create an environment that feels welcoming, energetic and distinctly social. Every detail of the space has been thoughtfully curated to encourage conversation, shared experiences and the kind of memorable moments that define a great neighbourhood hangout.
Commenting on the launch, Chef Kartikeya said, “PIXI was envisioned as a place where people can come together over good food and thoughtfully crafted drinks in a setting that feels both relaxed and exciting. Whether someone is stopping by for a craft beer, exploring the cocktail menu or settling in for dinner with friends, we wanted to create a space that feels approachable, memorable and rooted in the spirit of the neighbourhood.”
With its seamless blend of restaurant, bar and taproom experiences, PIXI adds a fresh dimension to Church Street’s evolving hospitality landscape, offering Bengaluru a dynamic new destination where every visit can begin with a coffee and end with a memorable evening.
