I put together a list of the ones I know. I have included those that are relatively safe to get to, and are in or near Gurgaon. Typically, you can get to any of them in less than 15-20 minutes from anywhere in Gurgaon (after midnight only).

Here’s the list:

Plaza Solitaire Hotel

This place is located on Old Jaipur Highway behind Sector 14. They serve North India, Chinese, Thai, and Continental food. They have both outdoor as well as indoor seating. I have been to this place MANY times, and though it is not the classiest joint in town, but it does fine. Here are some details:

• Meal for Two: Rs. 500.
• Address: 30, Sector 14, Old Delhi-Gurgaon Road
• Phone: 0124-2323043, 0124-2325832, 0124-2325833

Bonitos

This is a coffee shop near the international airport. Technically, this is in Delhi, but the highway makes this very accessible. It is located in Uppal Orchid. Details:

• Meal for Two: Rs. 2,500.
• Address: Uppal’s Orchid, NH8
• Phone: 011-25061515, 011-41511515

Citrus Cafe

Citrus Cafe is the name of the coffee shop in Lemon Tree hotels in Gurgaon. There are two such locations in Gurgaon. Although, I haven’t been here at midnight, I have had lunch here, and the meal has always been good. Hence, it is recommended. Here are the details:

• Meal for Two: Rs. 1500.

New Town Cafe

I have visited this coffee shop many times. And I highly recommend it. I even wrote a review about it recently talking about the Biryani Buffet. It is located at Park Plaza, and is definitely one of the better places to go at night.

• Meal for Two: Rs. 1800
• Address: Park Plaza Hotel, B Block, Sushant Lok II
• Phone: 0124-4150000

NYC – The Fun Cafe

This one too is not within Gurgaon, but is a short drive away on the highway. It’s inside Radisson hotel. I haven’t been there, but if its Radisson, how bad can it be?

• Meal for Two: Rs. 2000
• Address: Hotel Radisson, NH 8, Mahipalpur
• Phone: 011-26779191

Palmyra

This is yet another coffee shop located in the Bristol Hotel. I have been there, and although the place looks big, the food is alright. I had ordered their house speciality Chicken Burger, and wasn’t impressed. Other items on the menu sounded good though.

• Meal for Two: Rs. 1800
• Address: Hotel Bristol, Sikandarpur, DLF Phase I
• Phone: 0124-2356030

Axis

This place is a coffee bar plus restaurant. Once again, I haven’t seen this at night, though have been there during normal hours. They did have a nice wine list as per what I remember. The food was average though. This is located in the Galaxy hotel behind 32nd milestone.

• Meal for Two: Rs. 1500
• Address: First Floor, Galaxy Hotel, Sector 15.
• Phone: 0124-4565000

Cafe RoadHouse

Located inside 32nd milestone complex, this is one of the cheaper places on the list. The place is clean and I have visited it many a times. The clientele can get a little ordinary at times, but I haven’t had any trouble ever. The food is usually decent.

• Meal for Two: Rs. 750
• Address: 32nd milestone, NH8.
• Phone: 0124-2332571-75

Well, that’s it. These are all the proper joints that I know of. If you know of any other, please leave a comment. Also, if you have eaten past midnight at any of these, please leave  a comment mentioning how your experience was.
