Imagine this: stepping into a refined, warmly lit space in the heart of Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex after a long, demanding workday, only to be greeted by an atmosphere where European elegance seamlessly intertwines with modern culinary flair. This is Amelia in BKC, a contemporary fine-dining restaurant where French sophistication marries comforting Italian flavors. Recently, the restaurant unveiled its much-anticipated ‘Tap Takeover’ menu, an enticing selection of craft and classic brews, and we at unsobered had the opportunity to savor its highlights.
Amelia is the latest gem to adorn Mumbai’s ever-evolving culinary map. The vision of founder Geeta Amin, crafted in collaboration with investor Deepak Amin and co-founder Timanshu Mokal, the restaurant embodies a philosophy that marries modern taste with timeless European sensibilities. In fact, their new Tap Takeover menu is already making waves among patrons who’re seeking elevated yet approachable drinking experiences in the city.
The moment you step inside, you’re taken aback by the almost art gallery-meets-European-sanctuary feel of the place. A palette of soft, bespoke beige and red, deep crimson add the right amount of elegant drama. Diaphanous drapery cascades gently from ceiling to floor and curated art pieces make you feel like you accidentally stepped into an art gallery. The space is not designed just for dining – it is meant for lingering, savoring, and experiencing European charm right amidst the city’s relentless hustle and bustle.
We were definitely stunned by the beautiful interiors of the space alone. Little did we know that the Tap Takeover menu and the food was also about to sweep us off our feet!
Amelia’s Tap Takeover is a selection of craft and well-loved classics that are both elegant and approachable for beer drinkers. It is for those who appreciate both variety, craftsmanship, and sophistication. Whether your mood floats for fruity, lighter brews or bold and intense brews, the menu has got you covered!
Without any ado, we settled into the tasting session and quickly realized that the diverse menu is sure to cater to diverse tastes. Each brew has its distinct personality, a unique charm, and a story that’s waiting to be savored.
A Bohemian-style lager brewed with finger millets, this one stands out for its clean, balanced profile. Refreshing bitterness gently rounds out the flavor, making it an easy favorite for casual drinkers and loyal lager-lovers alike.

This Belgian Witbier strikes a delicate balance between citrusy brightness and subtle coriander notes. It’s the kind of beer that instantly transports you to a breezy European café and we definitely recommend it!

Full-bodied and unmistakably Bavarian, this Hefeweizen carries comforting banana and clove flavors. This velvety-smooth beer is perfect for those who like their brew a little light, fruity, and full of aroma.
Price: INR 500 (330 ml) | INR 800 (500 ml) | INR 1300 (1L)
Perhaps the most dramatic offering on the list, the Nitro Stout is rich, bold, and distinctly bitter. With pronounced coffee-chocolate aromas, this nitrogenated brew boasts a creamier mouthfeel and a thick, frothy head.
Price: INR 500 (330 ml) | INR 800 (500 ml) | INR 1300 (1L)
Other offerings include Kingfisher, Kingfisher Ultra, Ultra Max, and Heineken, priced between INR 400 and INR 1200.
But what you read were the original prices. The same offerings during the Tap Takeover will be served at unbelievable prices and we are definitely hyped about it!
The Tap Takeover at Amelia BKC will be valid only from Monday to Friday from 12 PM to 8 PM. However, note that the offer will be valid only on direct venue payments.

Craft brews might take center stage, but the food at Amelia truly deserves recognition. The menu is thoughtfully designed to complement the drinks, offering delicious European-inspired flavors.
We started with the Herb Chicken Meatballs, which are sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Tender and juicy, these meatballs are infused with aromatic herbs and melt effortlessly in your mouth. They’re comforting, elegant, and pair wonderfully with a variety of brews.
Next, we tried the Bang Bang Broccoli, a dish that can convert even the most reluctant broccoli eater! It’s soft, flavor-packed, and indulgent, and we can easily see it becoming a must-have bar snack at the restaurant.
The Pesto Burrata Pizza is the kind of dish you’d want to share while celebrating with friends. Topped with creamy burrata and smothered in fragrant, olive-green pesto, one bite transported us to the sun-kissed streets of coastal Italy. Together, the food and beer create an irresistible symphony of flavors. Each ingredient has its moment to shine on your palate, making Amelia’s Tap Takeover more than just a menu launch.
