The city of dreams, called Mumbai, has always attracted young and adults alike. Linking Road in Bandra is worshipped by fashionistas all over the city. The popular street shopping hub offers an interesting fusion of traditional as well as western wear.
It’s named after road linking Bandra to Juhu. The shopping hub starts from S Route and continues to Khar and extends beyond Santacruz and July. Although a street market, they sell everything from bargain stalls to independent boutiques to hi-end international brands.
Strolling through the streets with hundreds of options and choices to spoil your shopping day, Linking Road lets you live the essence of street shopping in its truest form.
It is a 15-minute walk from Bandra railway station. You also have an option to book a taxi from either Bandra Station or Hill Road. None of these should cost you more than Rs 30.
More often than not, Linking Road is the first choice for street shopping in Mumbai. The constant mention of Linking Road among fashionistas and celebrities has made Linking Road a much-hyped market in the city.
So does it really live up to its hype and popularity? The answer is Yes! From ready-made garments to dress materials, denim, footwear, apparel, and accessories: you can explore all this and more at a pretty good deal at Linking Road.
The standalone vendors constitute the major part of the market, which starts from the cross section road opposite Burger King. The shops tend to stick together depending on what material they are selling. You can also find originals of top notch accessory brands at as low a price as Rs 50.
Linking Road also has a Link Square Mall and various other high-end brands like Wrangler, Mochi and Levi. But if street vendors and malls are not your thing, try checking the famous independent boutiques of linking road. The price is generally high but 100% valued for its money.
Among other major attractions at Linking Road are scarves and hats. These are usually sold by roaming individuals on the street and can cost you around Rs 100 for each of these items.
For footwear, visit the line of shops adjacent to Mumbai Municipal Corporation Park. The shops have a mixture of local and remote brands comprising daily wear, party wear and formal wear. From high boots, crocs, gladiators, loafers, ballerinas, and flip flops, a good pair will cost you anywhere between Rs 150 and Rs 500. Most of these footwear are of local brands but that doesn’t deteriorate their quality and are just perfect for daily wear.
The last few shops also stock a classic collection of ethnic footwear. Rajasthani and Punjabi style juttis start from Rs 200 and go up to Rs 500. You may as well explore the collection of mojaries too which cost just Rs 150 to Rs 300. Most of the prices are up for bargaining. One may end up getting a great deal on these products.
So you are done shopping at Linking Road? It’s time to hit up brands like KFC, Burger King, Dominos, McDonald’s and Starbucks for quick bites. If you feel like gorging on some super tasty pani puris and vada pavs, local street food stalls offer an extensive delicious range.
The road joining Hill Road and Linking Road is where you can score top notch jewellery as well as various boutiques. Also, do check out the Lemon Spa which is on the round interjection of the roads.
