Bisque Bakery Review, Central Arcade, DLF Phase II, Gurgaon


Bisque Bakery in Central Arcade is right in my neighbourhood of DLF City Phase II, Gurgaon. Its been standing tall since more than a decade now. I have been a regular here for breads, salads, a quick snack, meal or just an evening cuppa coffee.


Bisque is a bit more than just a bakery or Bakerie and Patisserie as they call themselves. It can actually be classified as a dainty cafe as well. Besides scrumptious baked goodies, Bisque also serves a not so wide array of soups, salads, burgers, pastas, and a few pre-plated main meals. Do remember the coffee they serve is machine made Lavazza, which is not bad for once in a while.


The reasons that draw people to Bisque are simple & numerous.


  • First, there is not another bakery of any standing around in DLF City, Phase II, Gurgaon. This is very unlike Arjun Marg Market in DLF City, Phase I, Gurgaon where there are multiple bakeries.

  • Second, their stuff is always fresh whether its the cakes, pastries, breads or stuff from their a-la-carte menu. I have never felt a stale taste in anything on their shelves or from their kitchen.

  • Third, their menu offers more than a bakery and almost what a small cafe would offer. They do bulk orders too for parties etc.

  • Fourth, the bake spread includes an unending array of muffins, stuffed buns, rolls, cakes, pastries, cookies, sandwiches and breads including brown, garlic, multi-grain, croissants, bread sticks etc. The range of cakes available is virtually endless and can be customised too for any occasion.

  • Fifth, its located really comfortably near the corporate hub of Gurgaon and is sandwiched between Sikanderpur and MG Road metro stations (read within walking distance of the two metro stations).

  • Sixth, it offers a very quick exit for a really hungry stomach. Rush in, pick up your buns, quiches or rolls, add a pastry to it, pay for it, they heat it up, you eat it up and there you are not so hungry anymore and somewhat happier.

Bisque had an extended seating section on the upper level which I feel is seldom used now that their kitchen has expanded. Since the lower level has limited seating, it tends to get a tad noisy if the place is full of patrons. They have a chalk written blackboard menu of the day, which I haven’t seen changing much, so don’t expect many surprises from that either. The staff is efficient but seems bored doing the same thing endlessly. Having said that, Bisque is still a cozy & happy place to be in.


The must haves from their menu are given below. This is what I usually dabble with and don’t care much for anything else on the menu.


  1. Breads and cakes for sure. Fresh fruit cake is a must must. A lot of cakes for our family occasions do get ordered from here.

  2. Chicken Stroganoff. This is a big hit with my son and visits our table often.

  3. Thai Chicken with Red Curry. My personal favourite.

  4. The single “container” salad bar. Fit in as much as you can for one price. Works well for all in my family.

  5. Chicken Steak with Black Pepper Sauce. Another personal favourite.

  6. Fried Chicken. Finds favour with son mostly and with me occasionally.

Overall!! A great place for a quick bite or a lazy evening coffee. The food is good and it doesn’t pinch the pocket. Hop in sometime and you may bump into me dining there. :)

By Economic Times – Flat sale of flu drugs hints at no unusual rise in infections Industry executives and chemists said the April sales data showed a month-on-month decline of 30-40%. But even though the lockdown is seen to be impacting sales of most drugs, the pattern for medicines for infections and flus is no different.Last Updated: Apr 30, 2020, 11.23 AM ISTAgenciesExperts said the decline in sales was primarily because of the lockdown and other restrictions which forced people to stay indoors.

Hrithik-Saif’s Vikram Vedha hits a roadblock

The stage was about to be set for Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan’s ‘Vikram Vedha’ in Mumbai’s Film City. The material had reached. The artisans had been hired. But the lights have now been dimmed. Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi’s hit movie Vikram Vedha’s Hindi remake will not go on floors by mid-July as per the original plan. The new delta virus of COVID has sent shudders down many spines and many films which were being laid out on an expansive scale have been either held back or shifted their shoots abroad. The first schedule of this Hrithik-Saif movie will now be shot abroad. A source says, “The Mumbai schedule will be done but later.” Adds the source, “It’s a call that was taken yesterday. It wasn’t an easy call to take, no doubt, but the fact that it’s going to be a costly set made the makers take the safer route rather than be sorry later.” When contacted, General Secretary of FWICE (Federation of Western India Cine Employees), Ashok Dubey, confirmed that the makers of ‘V
