Fourteen tables on the roof, all of them facing the fort. One fire, one menu, and a rule that the lights stay low enough to see the sky.
Covers
56
Where
The roof of the main block, beside the Chhatri Pavilion
What to wear
Something warm from November. It is open to the sky.
Season
October to March
The room
Fourteen tables, one charcoal fire, and the fort straight ahead with nothing built between. The floodlights come on at seven, which is when the roof stops needing light of its own. The parapet tables go first, so ask for one when you book rather than when you arrive.
Worth knowing. Open October to March. Out of season the kitchen downstairs takes every table, and we would rather tell you that now than at the stair.
The menu
6 dishes, priced per dish. Prices exclude GST.
