Bakery Café
Near the zoo roundabout at Jawlakhel, the Bakery is an excellent place to drop in for a reviving café Americano (espresso with hot water), a badam (pistachio) milkshake or a light snack. The staff here are all deaf and the service is excellent.
-
Café de Patan
Just a few steps from the southwestern corner of Durbar Sq, this is a small, long-running favourite, with a pleasant open-air courtyard and a rooftop garden (with one table right at the very top of the building!). It turns out a superb lassi, plus pizza and Newari dishes.
-
Café de Temple
On the northern edge of the square, the excellent rooftop views are even more expansive than the menu, which offers both snacks and main meals. Try a cup of Tibetan herbal Yarchagumpa tea.
-
Dhokaima Café
A pleasant café 'next to the gate' (Patan Dhoka), with a nice garden and bar set under a sprawling walnut tree. It's a good place for a light snack after an exploration of Patan's backstreets, or come for the excellent Sunday brunch ( to ). The café is part of the Yala Maya Kendra, a Rana-era storehouse that is used for occasional cultural events.

La Soon
Down a side alley (feel the stress melt away as you leave the main street), this relaxing garden restaurant and wine bar is filled at lunchtimes with local NGO staff. The food is international and interesting, with good quality pasta, feta wraps and peanut soup.
-
Museum Café
In the rear courtyard of the Patan Museum, this is a stylish open-air place operated by the Summit Hotel. Prices are a little higher than elsewhere, but the gorgeous garden setting more than compensates. The organic salads are grown on site. You don't need to buy a museum ticket to eat at the café.
-
New York Pizza
Boasts the (allegedly) largest commercial pizza in the world at 25 inches. A 12-inch pizza with a couple of toppings costs around Rs 340 and delivery is free anywhere in Patan.
-
Old House Café
Prices are a little lower than at the Café de Temple at the similar Old House Café , set in an old Newari house in the northeastern corner of the square.
-
Taleju Restaurant & Bar
Head for the 5th-floor terrace of this place at the southern end of the square, as the views from here are outstanding, especially on a clear day when you have the snow-capped Ganesh Himal as a backdrop. The prices are the most reasonable in the square and the food is acceptable, making this the best budget bet with a view. The '100% drinkable' organic Ukrainian wine is hard to turn down.
-
Third World Restaurant
Third World Restaurant, on the quiet western side of the square, has a good rooftop views of the Krishna Mandir.
