Quick question for the India regulars — has anything changed in the last few months?
I was there 6 months ago and had a great time but I've heard new venues have opened.
Worth going back or should I try somewhere new?
Cheers

Agreed on all points. Make sure to use a VPN.

Adding my experience from February.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

I'd also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.
