100 Feet Road, also known as Dr S. K. Karim Khan Road, is a road in the Indian city of Bangalore that links Old Madras Road with Old Airport Road. It derived the name from a restaurant famously known as 100 ft Boutique Bar & Restaurant, which marked the beginning of the street as 100 ft. In 2014 it was named Dr S. K. Karim Khan Road after the renowned Kannada Poet and folklorist.[1] 100 Feet Road is a residential and commercial hub with the major Old Airport Road – Intermediate Ring Road flyover junction at one end.[2]
Once lined with residential houses on either side, 100 Feet Road has, over the last few years, turned into a commercially important high-street in Bangalore with numerous retail stores, book shops, ayurvedic centers, hotels restaurants, cafes, pubs and bars. While Bangalore has always been known as the "Pub City" of India, this was largely due to the number of pubs around M. G. Road. Indiranagar and more specifically 100 Feet Road is slowly wresting this importance away.[citation needed]
Indiranagar 100 Feet Road, over the years has turned into India's top food beverage hub, setting behind, the Park Street in Kolkata and Hauz Khas in Delhi.[3]
