About
A guide for the curious
Scene Bengaluru is a curated guide to the independent, the handmade and the slightly unexpected corners of the city — the places that don’t usually make the top-ten lists.
What we look for
Independent cafés and bookstores, thrift racks and flea markets, workshops where you leave with something you made, quiet corners, and short-lived pop-ups. Places with a point of view, run by people who care.
How listings work
Every listing shows when its details were last checked. Timings and prices change, so please confirm before you go. Events only appear while they’re upcoming.
Where the details and photos come from
Places are researched from their official sites and reputable local sources, which are kept on file for each listing. Photos come from Wikimedia Commons under open licences, with the photographer credited under each image. New places are added as they’re checked.
