The Swig - Raajkutir, Swabhumi - Bar in Kolkata - Kolkata, India

We went to The Swig to celebrate my friend's birthday and had one of her most memorable birthdays there. They even gave us a lovely complimentary cake, which brightened her day. Every single stuff was doing their absolute best to provide us with the best service possible. Had a great time. Will definitely visit again soon.

A while back I went to The Swig for their Sunday brunch. It is housed in the central courtyard of the glamourous boutique hotel Rajkutir, along with an indoor seating on two floors inside the building. The place has a beautiful ambiance, perfect for the winter afternoons and evenings, gives an absolute British feel. The bar inside is also well furnished & well lit. The cocktails are stirred by the renowned mixologist Imran. Each of the cocktails offered at the brunch are top notch and can stir up any to your liking incase you want to switch from the existing ones on the menu. I tried a couple of cocktails with white spirits and JC white wine. The grills are okayish!! The point is the batter in which the meat, fish, chicken are marinated, all taste the same. The pork sausages are good, the prawn is doable along with the calamari. The veg grills on the other hand were better. I loved the som tam and thought it was made perfectly. The thin crust pizza was just fine, could have been tastier. The main course is again average with biryani, dal, paneer, rice, roti and a few other things. For desserts the cheesecake was okish, the brownie was good and the ice creams were the best with the generous Chocolate sauce I poured with the wide array of toppings available. Overall I would say it's a good deal thet were offering @1999 AI. The ambiance is great and so are the cocktails. The food had scope for improvement and I hope they improve it soon.

Amazing atmosphere, great place to have a laid back conversation and enjoy. Definitely try their signature cocktails, my personal favourite is the Botanical garden.

Ambience is average. Prices are extremely high as you can expect. Had chicken biryani from tajness which was 750+tax each. It was very average.

Very discourteous staff with super slow service. On a Sunday afternoon at 5, they weren't prepared to serve food. How does that work!! They also said they would require half an hour to clean the table!

Instagram Friendly place but very Poor Service. The servers are unsure about their menu and most of the liquors were unavailable. The food quality was below par; for example, the Gondhoraj Chicken that was served to us was cold and rubbery.

Nice place.. pocket pinch around 2500 for 2 heads... buffet and Ala Kate both available.

Really liked the place it was an awesome experience. The price was a bit on the higher side but it was worth it. I ordered a hookah which was very good and a pasta and babycorn both were mouthwatering and even the quantity was good.
