Gimlet Garden at AER, Four Seasons Mumbai: Where Cocktails Become Culinary Stories in The Sky

Where the sky meets the spirit of sophistication

High above Mumbai's restless rhythm, AER at the Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai remains an icon of elevated indulgence — where sweeping city views meet cosmopolitan elegance. Within this legendary rooftop, Gimlet Garden unveils a lush, tranquil oasis that celebrates the poetry of mixology, inviting guests to pause, savour, and surrender to a world where cocktails transcend convention.

A culinary voyage in every glass

At Gimlet Garden, each cocktail is more than a drink — it is a story steeped in flavour and imagination. The new menu draws inspiration from ports, coastlines, and cultures around the world, transforming familiar ingredients into gastronomic marvels. Every creation balances the precision of a chef with the artistry of an alchemist — truffle and basil, tamarind and green apple, squid-infused gin and shiso leaf — ingredients that speak of place, craft, and curiosity.

The journey unfolds through a medley of sensations:

  • Oaxaca Me Margata brings the smoky warmth of agave, cacao, and chili — Mexico's fiery soul distilled in a glass.
  • Citrus Caravan Paloma dances with grapefruit and kokum — a tangy, sunlit tribute to bustling global markets.
  • Siren's Cove seduces with coconut tequila, mulberry liqueur, sloe gin, and black tea — a wave of oceanic depth and velvet smoothness.
  • Giloy surprises with herbal intrigue — tequila, Martini Extra Dry, Cointreau, and D.O.M. Bénédictine, uplifted by Islay peat, Penja pepper, cucumber, shiso, and milk oolong.
  • Pescadito, inspired by Peru's ceviche, turns a dish into a drink — bright, savoury, and deliciously unexpected.

Beyond the bar — the global table

Extending the experience beyond the glass, Gimlet Garden's culinary menu brings an equally inventive edge. Each small plate is designed to complement the cocktails, echoing the same globe-trotting spirit. From the spiced comfort of The Bombay Guac, to the vibrant Salmon Ceviche with Peruvian Tiger's Milk, and the indulgent Truffle & Parmesan Fries, the food invites guests to explore, share, and celebrate.

If you're looking for more surreal cocktail experiences at AER Mumbai, the rooftop bar continues to push boundaries with innovative offerings throughout the year.

A rooftop reverie above the city

"Our new menu at Gimlet Garden is designed to take our guests on a journey," says Nitesh Gandhi, General Manager, Four Seasons Hotel Mumbai. "Each cocktail and dish is a narrative in itself, crafted with care, creativity, and intention. Whether at golden hour or beneath a starlit sky, Gimlet Garden offers an experience that is both intimate and inspiring — where every moment lingers long after the last sip."

Suspended between the pulse of Mumbai below and the serenity of the sky above, Gimlet Garden at AER is more than a rooftop — it's an experience in elevation. A space where gastronomy meets mixology, and every evening becomes a story worth tasting. For those seeking an elevated dining experience during the day, consider the elevated brunch at AER Four Seasons Worli, which offers a Sunday brunch like no other.

The spirit of innovation extends beyond Mumbai, as Four Seasons redefines mixology with AER & Copitas uniting for a spirited bar swap across Mumbai and Bengaluru. Meanwhile, cocktail enthusiasts in Bengaluru can explore Copitas' cocktails for a good cause during Negroni Week.

For those who appreciate the artistry behind the bar, the special partnership between Four Seasons Mumbai and Stranger & Sons for AER Gin represents another milestone in the venue's commitment to exceptional spirits.

Beyond the cocktails, Opus at Four Seasons Mumbai offers a symphony of flavour, providing guests with additional dining options that showcase the hotel's culinary excellence.
