Kathmandu

Other restaurants in Kathmandu

  1. A

    Yak Restaurant

    An unpretentious and reliable Tibetan-run place at the end of Thamel. The booths give it a ‘Tibetan diner’ vibe and the clientele is a mix of trekkers, Sherpa guides and local Tibetans who come to shoot the breeze over a cigarette and a tube of tongba (hot millet beer). The menu includes Tibetan dishes, with good kothey (fried momos), and some Indian dishes, at unbeatable prices. It feels just like a trekking lodge, down to that familiar electronic sound of a chicken being strangled every time a dish leaves the kitchen.

  2. B

    Shree Lal House of Vegetarian Restaurant

    Vegetarians and vegans love this bright and modern family-run place for its vegetarian Indian dishes, South Indian dosa s (fried lentil-flour pancakes) and open kitchen. The food is tasty and good value for a light meal. The lababdar roll comes with nuts, onion, pepper, carrot and paneer (cottage cheese).

  3. Bakery Cafe

    With branches on the eastern edge of Thamel, on Durbar Marg and in Patan, this buzzy chain offers excellent-value coffees and snacks for when you just need to take a break over an Americano and a plate of momos. The management have commendably hired deaf staff, which is perhaps one reason why the music is so bad.

  4. C

    Chimney

    At the Yak & Yeti Hotel, northwest of the centre, this is one of Kathmandu’s most famous restaurants, named after the famous open fireplace. It now serves mostly continental cuisine, with the excellent borscht and chicken à la Kiev two of the last links with its Russian roots.

  5. D

    Yangling Tibetan Restaurant

    Both locals and tourists flock to this unpretentious family-run place for possibly the best momos (dumplings) in town (try the chicken ones). The kitchen here is a nonstop momo production line.

    Royal Park Guest House

    For a good-value lunch with a view over Basantapur Sq, try the rooftop restaurant of this budget hotel on the square’s south side.
