Khadu Cafe

Fantastic decor using locally available products. Food is also largely organic and tastes fantastic.
Very warm reception by the host. Lots of parking and a brilliant view of Rio Purgyil peak.

I loved every bit of the cafe. The flooring is very unique and the view outside is just breathtaking. They have a good collection books, clean toilet and serve delicious food. Sumit let me walk into the kitchen and he explained me how Siddu is prepared.

Best food Siddu with local cow ghee , coffee with cow milk was best in whole Simla- Narkanda drive. Service was top notch and ambience was very good . Loved it

Amazing food, Great Hospitality. We loved the authentic Sidu Ghee. Must visit cafe. Shakkar bedu roti was amazing.

Situated right on highway from Shimla towards tibet border with great valley view from inside. The ambiance is designed thoughtfully and makes you feel great.
Food quality is good as well and staff is attentive and friendly.
We tried Chinese and some traditional local dishes and they were good. As food is mostly made to order, you need to be patient.

If you wish to make your tummy and your mind happy together - this is a must visit for your trip to Narkanda. The space has an immense calming effect. The staff is welcoming and accommodating to your order customisations as well. The food is undoubtedly so nicely cooked and served - we loved trying Siddu, Laute and Rajma Chawal here. Also you get generous portioms of mountain cow ghee! The owner also helped us with sightseeing. It is a homely feeling to be here :) PS - do ask for fresh apple juice which they amke from their farm produce - you will experience such pure taste anywhere!

We spent around 5 hrs in the cafe last march as our car broke down on our way back to shimla. But we had a lovely time there. Tried almost all the dishes on their menu. The quality of food is really good. They explain in details about the local food. Price is same as the other restaurant around. Staff behaviour is nice ( they offered to make arrangements for a local car for us). Great view from the cafe. Only thing is do not make them rush it's not city fastfood chain it's a himalayan cafe.

Khadu is a must visit place if you are taking the sarahan route to kinnaur. It's located at a breathtaking beautiful location amidst lush green mountain and apple orchards. The highlight of the place is the interiors which is so peaceful. We took a stopover for tea and met some beautiful souls.

A great place to have a quick bite. Very well maintained, minimalist design of cafe, limited but sufficient menu and most of all, good taste!
Eat Siddu, local Himachali dish if you happen to visit this place. Would definitely recommend if you are on a ride or road trip to Kinnaur/Spiti.
Polite and friendly staff, would definitely visit this place again!!

The serenity, peace, tranquility and ambience of this place are breathtaking. Special shoutout to the in house pet dog. He is so friendly and cute. The food is amazing, quantity, quality and money wise. We had Desi ghee Siddu, coffee, tea, chutney sandwich. Everything was amazing. The view outside is amazing too. It's a must must visit place in HP

Great concept with an authentic rural, village like ambience. The food is reasonably priced and commendable along with an amazing view. There's also a great collection of books and boardgames to pass your time while you wait for the food. Also the souvenir shop has some stunning hand made stuff including gloves, scarves, mugs and other handicrafts. Overall the place has good vibes and the people serving are really polite and friendly.

Khadu Cafe, located in Nanni Village overlooking the beautifully valley is about 12 km from Narkanda's small city centre/market. If you are staying in Narkanda or passing by, Khadu Cafe should be on your itinerary. The food is great, staff is polite, generous and gracious, and the ambience is simply amazingly nice, quite, with a stunning view. A cafe owners/management/staff with a strong sense of environment friendliness, sustainability, promoting local cuisines and caring for what & how they serve the guests like a loved one will - there's just nothing more you could ask. Deepak Verma, manager of the cafe can strike up an engaging conversation about Himachal and conservationism, healthy food and much much more - that you feel like you are in the company of a knowledgeable and a wonderful friend. If ever a personal touch could be quantified - that's how it would be.

All I can say, don't miss Khadu Cafe if you happen to be visiting anywhere in the region, whether you are with friends or family or travelling alone.

The aesthetics will blow your mind. The cafe is extremely quaint with picturesque backdrop. The food is amazing and even better is their hospitality. They also have endemic articles which you can buy at very reasonable price. It is a must visit.

I'm not sure why those cafe isn't a solid 5*??
It is wonderful. Like an tranquil, oasis of calm perched on the side of a mountain with breathtaking views. The perfect stop and recharge after motorbiking on twisty roads with crazy driver.
The food is local and excellent, the drinks delicious and the atmosphere warm, calm and welcoming.
The owner and staff are friendly and couldn't be more helpful. They explain the heritage of the traditional food and the area and gave us wonderful recommendations for our onward travel.
Can't rate this place highly enough!!
