Indian Coffee House

Jaipur


Set back from the street, down an easily missed alley, this traditional coffee house (a venerable co-op institution) offers a pleasant cup of filtered coffee in very relaxed surroundings. Aficionados of Indian Coffee Houses will not be disappointed by the fan-cooled, spare, pale-yellow ambience. Inexpensive pakoras (deep-fried battered vegetables) and dosas grace the menu.
