Someplace Else is a hotel pub inside The Park Kolkata at 17 Park Street, central Kolkata, West Bengal, India. It has a long reputation locally for rock and live music, and recent visitors describe it as a place to catch live bands in a lively pub setting. Being inside a five-star hotel on Park Street gives it an easy, central location for visitors staying nearby.
The crowd is a mix of young professionals, college groups, hotel guests and regulars who come for the band nights. The age range is mostly twenties and thirties, with some older rock fans. There is no strict dress code, though smart casual is the norm, and the hotel setting means the door is generally relaxed but not for visibly intoxicated guests. The atmosphere is energetic and loud when bands play, with a pub-style layout of tables and a bar.
Music is the defining feature. Live bands typically perform in the evening, usually playing rock and popular cover sets, with the programme varying across the week. Visitors who want louder, band-led nightlife rather than a quiet cocktail bar generally choose this venue.
The drinks programme covers draught and bottled beer, spirits and cocktails. Beer is typically priced at around ₹400-700 and cocktails at about ₹600-1,100, reflecting hotel pricing. Bar food is available, and the hotel kitchen supports a fuller order if needed. Opening hours are typically evenings from about 7PM to midnight with live bands; confirm current hours with the venue or its Google Maps listing.
No cover charge is listed for this hotel venue. Reservations are not typically essential, though groups and weekend evenings are better handled with a call ahead to the hotel. Bottle service is not a defining part of the offering.
Someplace Else sits in the same building as the Roxy nightclub and within walking distance of Trincas, Tavern Behind Trincas and Mocambo, so it fits well into a Park Street night out.
