Pune has quietly become one of India’s best craft beer cities, with microbreweries spread across Koregaon Park, Viman Nagar, Baner and Mundhwa. This guide maps the brewery scene by area, and how to enjoy it responsibly.
One rule first: never drink and ride. Use your two-wheeler to get there and back only if you are staying sober, or plan a safe ride home.
Why Pune is a craft beer hub
A young, well-travelled crowd and a strong cafe culture have made Pune a natural home for microbreweries. Most pair house-brewed beer with solid food menus, so they double as dinner spots.
Where the breweries are
- Koregaon Park and North Main Road for the classic nightlife cluster
- Viman Nagar for newer, lively taprooms
- Baner and Balewadi for the west-Pune crowd
- Mundhwa and Kharadi side for the east-Pune offices
What to expect
House lagers, wheat beers and seasonal brews, usually alongside shareable food. Weekends are busy, so go early for a table.
Drink responsibly, ride sober
- Never ride after drinking, it is dangerous and illegal
- Use a designated non-drinking rider, or a cab home and collect your two-wheeler later
- Carry your licence and ride within the law on the way there
Make a sensible evening of it
Pick one area, park once, and explore it on foot rather than hopping across the city after drinks. A scooter is great for getting to the cluster and home the next day.
Rent a bike or scooty in Pune for this
You do not need to own a two-wheeler to enjoy any of this. Grab a bike on rent in Pune from Boongg by the hour, day or month, helmet included, and head out whenever you are ready.

Practical Tips for Your Pune Two-Wheeler Experience
Getting the most out of your ride around Pune comes down to preparation. Always carry your Aadhar card or driving licence — Boongg's rental agreement serves as proof of insurance but traffic police may ask for ID. Download offline maps for your route before leaving, as some areas around Brewery have spotty connectivity. A small backpack beats a carrier bag — keeps your hands free and weight centred. If you're riding for the first time in Pune, start with a morning slot on a weekday — traffic is lighter and you get a feel for the roads before tackling peak hours.
- Documents to carry: Driving licence, Aadhar, Boongg rental agreement
- Best riding hours: 7–9 AM and 6–8 PM on weekdays, anytime on weekend mornings
- Fuel/charging: Petrol pumps on most main roads; EV charging at malls and IT parks
