American dining and entertainment chain Dave & Buster’s is expanding its footprint in India with the opening of its second location at Infinity Mall in Mumbai.
The launch follows the success of its 27,000sq ft flagship outlet in Koramangala, Bangalore, the brand’s first global franchise store.
Led by the Malpani Group, an Indian conglomerate and the brand’s master franchisee, the expansion will see Dave & Buster’s open in more key cities as part of a broader national rollout.
Keeping its signature, “Eat. Drink. Play. Watch” format, the new Mumbai venue will combine restaurant-style dining with a full-service bar, immersive arcade gaming and social experiences; a model that the company says has found a strong following in the Indian market.
“Following the phenomenal success in Bangalore, Mumbai was the obvious next destination for Dave & Buster’s,” said Shreya Malpani, Director at Malpani Group. “This isn’t just a venue, it’s a high-energy experience and about introducing a whole new way to eat, drink and play. With Mumbai’s pulse for culture, community and celebration, we’re excited to create a space that becomes the city’s go-to for entertainment that’s fresh, immersive and unforgettable.”
