The government's decision to extend nightlife in the Garden City, by allowing watering holes to remain open till 1 am during the weekends, came into force on Friday.
Several youths were seen partying at pubs, bars and eateries drinking and dining past midnight in several areas, particularly the upmarket MGRoad, Brigade Road, Koramangala, Indiranagar, HSRLayout, Marathalli, Kodigehalli and JPNagar.
Most of the people who were at these joints past midnight termed the extension as a much needed relief.
"The feeling of spending time past midnight with friends over a drink is something different," remarked PCThomas, a techie who was at a pub on Brigade Road.
The owners of bars and restaurants had made enough preparations to ensure supply of food.
Moses, who runs Chungs, a Chinese restaurant near Chandrika junction, said: "All these days, people would knock on our doors past midnight demanding food and liquor.There used to be fights and we would deny. But today it was different.I made good business even past midnight. It was a similar story with some of my friends who run eateries," he said. Reported by Deccan Herald 24 minutes ago.
