By far the best place I’ve been too. Staffs are courteous and accommodate in every possible way to the limits. Never have I shied down to visit this place over and over again. Would definitely thank the crew. Cheers!!
The right place to meet my friends for a relaxed evening. The lounge area is quiet (the main bar has live music). Welcome relief compared to the other noisy bars. The drink all you can deals are good. They didnt have Ballantines that day, though. Will definitely visit again.

The one thing which strikes about this bar is you that you don't find places like this anymore. It is old fashioned and takes you back to the good ol days when how bars actually used to be. It does not swarm you with swirls of colours or attractive wall papers but instead works on the old world charm that is so missing these days.
The decor carries a very woody feel. The seatings are laid back and the tinge of yesteryear is inherently visible on them. The surroundings are stacked with antiquities and the lighting is dim with the bar at the center serving all kinds of stuff from scotch to beer to vodka, rum, gin and what not. If you're a person of the past, nostalgia will certainly hit you with feel good memories.
Just that it has not moved on like the way the other newbie pubs have adds credibility and it's lovely to see that they have stuck to tradition. The name Durrants is named after 'Charles Durrant' - Madras Presidency's first wine merchant.
Before our evening meal, we stopped here for some drinks and starters. They have all kinds of liquor available including the imported ones. The best bet however is on the superlative deals they have. This is an area where they are really attractive as the offers are fabulous. Lots of buy one get one's, special discounts, summer quencher deals and many more.
I had a shot at a scotch and beer along with some sumptuous panneer tikka and cauliflower for company. This is also a place where you can ideally spend long hours at your leisurely comfort.
On the whole, an old school bar which happens to possess a vintage charm of it's own.
Visited this place after our inability to find Stag entries elsewhere on a busy Friday evening. This place is actually a lounge which is part of the My Fortune hotel on Cathedral Road, Gopalapuram.
The lounge has a rich and sophisticated look with well lit lighting. The working staff are calm and extremely hospitable.
We ordered for couple of beers and starters. Taste of the food was just ok. If you are in a mood for a quiet place to discuss about business or enjoy a private date then this is a must visit place.
Came to this pretty extinguished lounge in the hotel to grab a couple of beers. Love the old look of it. The furniture and set-up are so aristocratic that so clearly resembles the yesteryears!
The staff are gentle, warm and extremely hospitable! Thanks to the years of experience they have put in!
This quiet Lounge is a perfect getaway from Chennai's humdrum. Perfect place to down that chilled beer. Mind you! This is a rather lustreless place without the glamour and olfactory in the air!
If you are in the mood for a quiet place to talk business or enjoy a private date then this is the perfect place.
The finger foods are good. The traditional items like vazhu are made so well here. I liked this place for a change. Go for it!
This bar is part of WelcomHotel.
Good sitting arrangement both indoor and outdoor by the side of the pool. Tastefully done interiors.
The bar is well stocked.
Staff is helpful and service good. It is service with smile which is best part.
Best Bar of ITC group . you can enjoy your evening with your friends and family .cheers .
Was a great experience. Not too loud, well lit. Great place to engage in conversation. Mr. Ratan, a stalwart in the ITC group, took good care of us and made the experience even better. Kudos to him.
The Durrant's bar at the WelcomHotel is one of those rare places that make you feel like a royal and have you "feel at home" at the same time.
I felt totally at place while engaging with Ratan, the "boss" at the bar. He came across as an extremely humble, well-mannered and genial individual.
The place as such is extremely relaxed, quiet and perfect for spending a couple of hours in peace. \m/
It's the pleasant bar, that I always love to spend with my friend. It's old chola hotel, now its welcome hotel(after ITC regrouped). One would wonder, how this place has such a nice ambience, coz the woods, chairs, table are so antique and well maintained till date. Service is always a bit slow. But you wont feel the pain of waiting. Durrant.. the favorite and always will be for me.
