An unique gastro play pub
HnExpress Ashoke Sengupta, Kolkata : Five Mad Men, the new “gastro play pub” in Saltlake Sector V, is the first of its kind in the city. The sprawling space is divided into two sections and offers gaming and live streaming of matches in a sporty ambience. Apart from food, drinks & sports, there is DJ music and live gigs to ensure you have a swell time.
So, why call it Five Mad Men? The name perfectly justifies the people who own it, five mad childhood friends Sayan Roy, Amitava Bandyopadhyay, Ayan Das Gupta, Kanyaka Basu and Sourav Sinha, they want to pass on their vibe to the people who come here. This is the ideal place where sports meets the party scene. The first section you will come across once you enter is around 1000 sq ft in area. It can hold around 100 people, and is done up with wrought iron chairs, hanging bulbs and wall art.

Once you cross the entrance section, you reach a 3,500sq ft space that can pack in around 200 people. It wears a rugged look and has the feel of an an urban artsy warehouse. A 22ft-long bar will ensure you don’t have a hard time getting your drinks. The well-lit ceiling and the graffiti are the other highlights. There’s a smoking room, too, decorated with vibrant old window shutters and a carom board(yes you read that correct!!).
