‘Tis the season to be Tipsy!
Monsoon’s gone and it’s a great time to walk about. An even better time to walk about ‘tipsy’ in Fontainhas. Confused about what we’re talking about? Don’t worry, we’re about to make your Goa trip more buzzing ( pun intended ).
You may have been to Goa before, been to Panjim before, and even visited the colourful Latin quarters of Fontainhas before. But have you been to the new Fontainhas? Likely, not.
Here’s what’s new in Fontainhas -
Among the bright, old worldly Portuguese homes and local watering holes are new sights to sample, taste and behold. Upscale, trendy, dining hot spots have found their home in the old timey streets. It’s a dichotomy of contemporary and latter-days vibing together.
The best way to get around Fontainhas is on foot. Park your cars on the street and get strolling. Ideally, plan your next Goan weekend in Panjim to make life easier.
May we suggest Villa In Palms, in North Goa. The villa is located in a serene, private estate. And offers luxury chauffeur-driven Mercedes SUVs to pick you up and drop you off in style to wherever you want to go.
Fontainhas offers many cultural and heritage walks, but of late the most popular trek through the streets is the ‘Tipsy Tour of Fontainhas’.
The Tipsy Tour, we have discovered, is the most fun way to discover the new haunts of the Latin quarters.
Hosted by the flamboyant and charming Maanav Dev, the Tipsy Tour is a bar crawl that stops at multiple bars in Fontainhas like Miguel’s and The Outpost.
At each bar you’re served signature cocktails, tapas and there are fun games to keep you in high spirits all through the night. What’s more? Everything is included in the ticket price.

Miguel’s
Miguel’s is an art-deco bar that serves Konkan-Portuguese culinary fusion. Their cocktails hark back to the 1920s and ‘30s. Miguel’s serves petiscos made live in front of you in their open kitchen & bar. With a friendly staff and fun energy, this stop on the bar crawl packs quite a punch. We’re fans of their Espresso Martini and Punho Luta Mexicano. You too, can discover your favourites on the tour!

The Outpost
The Outpost by Sly Granny is a quirky old-fashioned bar with contemporary food fare. The cocktail menu takes you back in time to a speakeasy and their food brings you back to the present day with their offerings of burgers and finger foods. This charming stop on the tour brings its own personality and a chance to get lost in an era long gone.
