    Himani’s

    The neon and marble decor is straight out of the 1980s, but Himani’s is a good place for a casual drink or plate of chicken tikka. On two levels, the top-floor terrace overlooking the Mall is perfect on a sunny afternoon.

    Gaiety Theatre

    Although closed for renovations at the time of writing, the Shimla Amateur Dramatic Club usually puts on shows here. Even if there’s no show on, it’s worth taking a peek at the fabulous auditorium.
