place. Although Tito's Lane in Baga is the hotspot, there are lots of little bars scattered
around, many offering live music on weekends.
Café Mambo
( 9822765002;
www.titos.in
;
couple ?500; 10.30pm-3am)
Mambo's is a slightly sophisticated (rel-
ative to Baga) late-night club, with DJs pumping out mostly commercial house and hip
hop, and the occasional (Western) retro night. It's strictly 'couples-only', though single
women should have no trouble getting in (free); single men can forget it.
Tito's
, just next
door, used to be Baga's 'it' club, and is still worth a visit, especially for Bollywood nights.
Cover, rules and hours are the same as Mambo's.

Arpora, about 2km northeast of Baga, set up in season and are fun alternatives to Anjuna's
