Chembur Draws the City Together with TAP’s 6th Destination, A New Rooftop Bar from an 11-Year Legacy

Eleven years. Five buzzing neighbourhoods. And now, a sixth destination that quite literally raises the bar. TAP resto-bar by China Gate Group has already stamped its vibe across Worli, Bandra, Juhu, Sakinaka, and Andheri, and Chembur is next in line. With the launch of its new outpost, the brand isn’t merely expanding; it’s reaffirming its legacy. For over a decade, TAP has shaped Mumbai’s best nights out, setting the standard for where the city goes to celebrate, reconnect, and lose track of time. Now, TAP brings its signature buzz, from the electric ambience, next-level cocktails, to its iconic comfort food, and that unmistakable TAP spirit, to rewrite the East’s nightlife scene.

Set on the 18th floor, TAP Chembur feels like a discovery. The moment the lift doors open, the skyline spills into view. The city is wide, bright, and almost within reach. Wind in your hair. Lights below your feet. The rooftop stretches across 7,000 sq. ft. It feels open, soft, and made for the night. People walk in after work and stay longer than planned. Groups drift in for dinners that turn into celebrations. The space fits every mood. Quiet dates. Loud birthdays. Big tables. Familiar faces who come for one drink and leave only when the music slows.

The menu moves with an easy rhythm. Salads stay crisp with Ruccola Watermelon Feta, and  A Classic Chicken Caesar. Appetisers warm up the table with Mushroom Cottage Cheese Croquets and Spicy Thecha Paneer Baos. Veg favourites include Pesto Mushroom Skewers and Paneer In Fragrant Chilli Sauce. The non-veg bites keep the energy high with Jamaican Baked Wings and Dynamite Prawns. Burgers and sandwiches stay indulgent with the Greek Guru Corn Feta Burger and a Crispy Chicken Burger. Sushi fans find comfort in the Crispy Prawn Tempura Roll and the Classic Sushi Platter.

Mains lean into comfort. Paneer Makhani and Dal Makhani anchor the veg side, while Murgh Tikka Masala and Chicken Dum Biryani cover the non-veg mood. The continental plates stretch further with Herb-Grilled Chicken and Lemon Butter Fish that arrives with Mash And Sautéed Vegetables. Desserts soften the night with Lava Chocolate and Churros Dipped In Warm Chocolate.

The rooftop bar is the anchor, serving bright, playful Cocktails alongside Classics And Creative Blends. Signature concoctions highlight Tropical Fruits, Bold Spices, and Premium Spirits, while Mojitos, Margaritas, Draft Beer, and Wine round out the selection. The cocktails’ balance of flavour and presentation makes them a favourite for both casual evenings and celebratory nights.

Krishna Tamang, founder of China Gate Group and TAP says, “We have seen people come from Chembur, Ghatkopar, Govandi, Deonar, even Navi Mumbai, just to spend a night with us. Opening here felt natural; it felt personal. This outlet is for the community that kept pushing us to take this step. Chembur has given us a lot of love, and we are excited to finally bring TAP closer to them.”

TAP Chembur is now open. The lights are on. The grills are firing. The music is loud. Walk in with your gang, walk in after work, walk in for one drink that never stays one. This is TAP, East side now, and here to stay.
