Mumbai : Mumbai’s experiential hospitality landscape has a new landmark. DDUCKPIN, India’s first duckpin bowling bistro, is now open at 3rd Floor, Food Court, Infiniti Mall Malad, New Link Road, Malad West, Mumbai, introducing one of North America’s most-loved bowling formats to Indian audiences. Blending immersive entertainment, elevated dining and thoughtfully curated social experiences, DDUCKPIN offers a refreshing alternative to conventional nights out bringing people together through play, food and meaningful human connection.
More than a bowling destination, DDUCKPIN has been envisioned as a social entertainment hub where guests can seamlessly move between gaming, dining and conversation. Every element of the experience from the venue’s vibrant interiors and interactive spaces to its food, beverages and atmosphere has been thoughtfully designed to encourage guests to disconnect from their screens and reconnect with one another.
The concept has been brought to life by Rohan Mathur, the leadership behind Complete Sports Management (CSML), India’s leading entertainment solutions provider. With over two decades of combined experience developing some of the country’s most successful entertainment destinations, including projects for The Game Palacio, Dave & Buster’s, Shott and Torq03, and many others now brings their global expertise directly to consumers through DDUCKPIN.
Speaking on the launch, Rohan Mathur, Director, DDUCKPIN, said:
“We didn’t want to open another place where people order food, stare at their phones, and leave. We wanted the place your group chat actually shows up for. Duckpin bowling doesn’t exist anywhere else in India, we brought it here because it’s ridiculous, it’s fast, and it makes even your most ‘I don’t do fun’ friend flip a table over a bad throw. That’s DDUCKPIN.
Spread across over 6,000 sq. ft., the venue has been designed as a seamless social ecosystem rather than a conventional entertainment centre. Alongside dedicated duckpin bowling lanes, guests can enjoy a vibrant café and bar, a 3D interactive snooker table which is the first time in India, a multipurpose karaoke and private dining room, curated artwork, interactive installations and flexible seating that encourages movement, conversation and shared experiences throughout the venue.
Complementing the entertainment is a thoughtfully curated menu led by Chef Pragnesh Majigamker with guidance from Chef Irfan Pabaney and Chef Sidhhesh featuring bold, shareable dishes inspired by global cuisines. Signature offerings include indulgent loaded fries, Roman-style pizzas with light, crisp bases, theatrical lava rock grills, hearty mains and a wide selection of beverages.
As experiential hospitality continues to gain momentum across India, DDUCKPIN introduces a destination that brings together sport, dining and social connection in an entirely new format. By combining the globally popular game of duckpin bowling with contemporary hospitality and thoughtfully designed spaces, it aims to redefine how people celebrate, unwind and spend time together.
