Gaming cafés in Mumbai's eastern suburbs, from Powai and Chandivali to Chembur, Ghatkopar, Bhandup and Mulund, with real prices and hours.

Most "best gaming café in Mumbai" lists stick to the Western suburbs. But if you live along the Central or Harbour line, or around Powai, you don't need to cross the city for a good session. Chembur, Ghatkopar, Vikhroli, Bhandup and Mulund all have cafés, and Powai has a couple of solid PC options.

This guide covers the eastern suburbs, from Powai across to Chembur and up to Mulund. As always, we've only included details we could check from the café's own channels, its business listing or its Gamehood page. A lot of cafés here don't publish prices, so we've said "ask" rather than invent a number.

Everything was checked on 31 October 2026. Hours marked "per Google listing" come from the café's public business listing, so confirm before you head out.

Tips before you go

  1. Call ahead. Many of these cafés don't update their listings often, and smaller ones may open late.
  2. Ask about per-controller pricing. GenZ, for example, prices PS5 per person. Our price guide has the maths for groups.
  3. Check the edition. If you want EA FC 26 rather than FIFA 23, ask before you go. Our Valorant, BGMI and EA FC guide lists cafés that publish their FC version.
