Restaurant India News: Karjat’s First Microbrewery, ‘Common House’ Opens in Bandra

After debuting as Karjat’s first microbrewery and expanding into Mumbai’s T2 International and Domestic Airport, Common House has opened in Bandra—serving farm-fresh brews, craft cocktails, and hearty comfort food in one of the city’s most vibrant neighborhoods.

The brand was born out of the Ahuja family’s vision to create warm, welcoming spaces where good food meets great drinks. What began as a weekend restaurant alongside Saltt at Oleander Farms quickly evolved into a fine dining and hospitality destination. Within that ecosystem, Common House carved its identity as the all-day hangout—a laid-back brewery where laughter, music, and freshly poured pints flowed in equal measure.

The beer is still brewed in Karjat in six 500-litre tanks, perfected over a 15-day cycle, and transported fresh to the city. On tap: crisp lagers, Belgian wits, German styles, ales, and robust stouts. The food menu is equally expressive—rooted in the family’s culinary memories yet adventurous in flavor. Expect mutton adana kebabs folded into zaatar pitas, wood-fired thin-crust pizzas with a perfect char, peri-peri sweet potato fries, and even a playful spin on cheese chili bread. From European and Italian to Lebanese and Indian influences, every dish is crafted to pair seamlessly with a pint.

While the location may have shifted, the essence is unchanged. Bandra’s new outpost captures what Common House does best: blending craft, comfort, and community. It’s more than just food and drink—it’s a feeling, now pouring in the heart of the city.
