Ganesh is brought to you from the team behind Bodega Ramen. As Obs locals themselves, they have taken over the institution that is Cafe Ganesh in Observatory now Ganesh. It remains a space synonymous with crayfish samoosas, late-night conversations, live music, sharing of quarts and a meeting space for friends, locals, artists, students and activists. The building has been given a facelift and the restaurant at the back has been turned into a small Thai Street Food restaurant. Embracing Thai Kitsch and the street food flavours and experience the three owners (Ryan, Bryn and Jade) had while travelling Thailand together.

Ganesh host's weekly music events on Thursday at 7pm in the bar area and on Sunday from 4pm. Thursdays focus on Vinyl Selectors and Jazz - please check their Instagram for what's on. On Sunday's the focus is on ambient and experimental music and two Thai Curries are served. No bookings taken.
