The 15 best spots for croissants in Leh

Lamayuru Restaurant August 2023: The service is great, the ingredients are fresh, the menu is vast (it has just about anything your taste-buds might be desiring). I absolutely LOVED the Mango Smoothie Bowl (with seeds, nuts, honey, fresh fruit, cinnamon, etc...); it's the best thing I've had in Leh, so far, during both my trips here. Their Pad Thai Pak veg noodles were really good, too. They also have free wifi and a restroom, both of which are MUSTS for me in Leh. And it's situated very close to Leh Main Market Street, so it's convenient to visit. I'll definitely return to try more from their menu, and I'll add in pics and comments when I do. 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This lamayauru setup seems to be different from the older pics seen here in the previous reviews. Now it’s a lovely outdoor kind of a setup and is just lovely. The food was good, we had momos, khambir and mutton shapta and service was also prompt. One of better restaurant experiences for me this time in Leh

Went in for lunch and liked the food and ambience so much that i went back for dinner again the next day . The fresh apricot juice was one of the most memorable dishes in this trip for me and I still think about it 😋 Tingmo and thukpa was also great The service is also good and the ambience is so quiet and charming. Highly recommended

Great food and atmosphere here! We had food for many days here in our 2 week stay and the host was very friendly too.

This place is a little gem in Leh :) A little out of the busy area, it has a beautiful and quiet outdoor area under the trees. We only tried the Indian food (came back several times) and it was delicious, and the service is friendly, can only recommend !

Lamayuru Restaurant in Ladakh was an absolute delight. The Shakshouka was rich, flavorful, and paired beautifully with the refreshing tang of Seabuckthorn juice. The highlight of the meal, however, was Tingmo with Shapta—soft, fluffy steamed buns alongside perfectly spiced stir-fried meat that everyone at the table loved. A cozy spot that captures both authenticity and warmth, making it a must-visit when exploring Ladakh’s culinary gems.

We loved the place. Friendly staff. Great spread of a menu. Yummy food. The outside seating was beautiful. They accommodated all our requests, and mind you, we were a big group. Totally recommend.

This was the first restaurant we tried in Leh. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the ambiance was quite serene. Their menu offered a wide variety of options, and the food was enjoyable.

I went to this restaurant with high hopes, assuming it has good rating and middle of the market location leads more to the credibility, but my experience was the least expected. The service is pathetic. At least, in my case, it was. The waiter took our orders, which were a pizza, butter tea and watermelon juice. Nothing fancy, time consuming. And then the wait started. 20 min later the waiter comes and tells sir, the pizza cannot be made as the base is finished. We say, okay, no problem. Please do grilled sandwiches instead. He obliges and goes back to the kitchen. And then the wait startes. 20 min later, we get our tea and juice. At this point it is 40 min past the original order time. We still accept and ask to expedite the Sandwich order please. But, time goes on and on and we do not get our order. People who came after us got their order and even started leaving after finishing. 40 min later, after politely telling the waiter that we are leaving and please let us know the bill, he does get the sandwiches, which haven't been grilled at all( I have shared the picture). You can compare it with the pics other people have uploaded. Overall, the taste was good, ambience was good as well, but the service ruined the experience. So, if you are planning to go here, keep this in mind, for else avoid this place.

We had 6 nights in Leh and got to dine here almost everyday.

The yak cheese pizzzaa is to die for. I generally can eat only a few slices but i finished up the entire thing even after having a big fruit bowl before that❤️❤️

Had a sumptuous meal at Gesmo in Leh! We ordered the chicken thukpa and mutton momos, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. The thukpa was rich, flavorful, and perfect for the chilly weather—comforting in every bite. The mutton momos were juicy, well-seasoned, and came with a tasty dipping sauce that elevated the flavors even more. The service was warm and friendly, and the cozy atmosphere made the experience even better. Drop by if you’re in Leh and craving some hearty local food!

Great service and food! The menu is quite extensive and multicultural! We got the chicken salad, grilled burger, and grilled yak cheese sandwich. Definitely recommend :)

One of the best restaurants in Leh. Close to the Leh main market. Best option for authentic ladakhi delicacies. The ambience is good and so is the service. Don't miss trying the Yak cheese pizza.

Pumpernickel German Bakery in Leh is a quaint spot that adds a touch of Germany to the Himalayan charm. As you step in, the inviting aroma of freshly baked goods envelops you, setting the stage for a delightful experience. The bakery exudes a laid-back vibe, making it a perfect place for a casual hangout in Leh. Their array of bread and pastries is quite impressive. Whether you're into hearty German-style bread or indulgent pastries, they've got a treat for every palate. Personally, I couldn't resist their pretzels – soft, doughy, and just the right amount of savory goodness. Pairing their delectable offerings with a cup of coffee is a must. It complements the baked goods perfectly and adds to the overall comforting ambiance. The seating area, though simple, provides a cozy space to unwind, perhaps with a good book or in the company of friends. The friendly staff enhances the welcoming atmosphere, making Pumpernickel German Bakery a charming stop for both locals and travelers exploring Leh. It's a hidden gem offering a taste of Germany against the breathtaking backdrop of the Leh region.

Not delicious and bad attitude not happy 💔

We had an early breakfast here. The service was very good and the food was ok. We liked the bakery items (coconut cookies were very good) with the hot chocolate and masala tea but... the savory items like sandwiches, omelet, and the Israeli breakfast (eggs, hummus, etc) were somewhat bland for our tastes.

Some great food here at a very good price! Ganess and Lakshamn were very good waiters and always delivered the food on time. Super spot at a great price 😀👌

I have been here in July, 2012. This is a famous bakery in Leh. But if you want to have food it also serve for you. The special menu I have experience was Phad Thai! yes it serve Phad Thai. I am Thai so this is not miss for me the eat Phad Thai. The taste is very good, almost same as in Thai. I recommend you!

Located on Old fort Road in the main market of Leh, it cannot be missed with its big yellow board. The bakery now boasts of an restaurant as well. their most famous creation is Coconut Cookie and it was good & there second best was Choco Danish and it tasted like heaven.

Best place for pies. Had blueberry cheesecake and it was yum. Very nice ambience and welcoming staff.

It's a lovely place to hangout, the servings are pretty good...... Cool comfy and cozy place for coffee lovers

Great coffee, great cake. Atmosphere okay, not so cosy though.

Good place for breakfast with morning caffeine. They start really early I guess at 7am.

Placed centrally ! The beautiful coffee shop gives you a local ambience! with lovely portraits adorning the insides and the scintillating aroma of coffee, and most of all the delicious menu , it is the perfect coffee shop in leh ! Also the owners and every regular customer there is delightful company 😊must visit !

This is comfortably the place to be in Leh. Great coffee, decent WiFi (a massive rarity) and reasonably priced. The travel agency next door is equally as good, with the owner happy to help out any issues (even without compensation).

Interesting place We landed up in this place while we were walking around in the Main Market in Leh. The place is good, looks modern. Unfortunately for us, they had no burgers, sandwiches available. So we ordered Wraps and Coffee, which was good. This is a lazy place, so give some time. This is a place where after a hectic sightseeing or shopping, you chill for a while.

The coffee is very good, it’s also a nice place to sit with chilled music and good WiFi. However, I ordered the vegetarian sandwich and it was tiny.. I literally ate it in under 30 seconds. Stick to the coffee.

I had a delicious breakfast as well as an amazing service: very kind! I would definitely recommend it !

Lovely place with great coffee and homemade food. The people are kind and welcoming, and the setting is peaceful. A perfect place to take a break and enjoy good vibes.

I loved this quaint little cafe which we discovered on our way to the hotel. And I am so glad that we lost our way. The owners were such warm and caring people ! We had the world famous Butter tea and Shakshukha… the plating, taste and portion was just perfect. I have promised them to be back during my next week. It’s a must visit place for spending a lazy acclimatisation afternoon!

Yama coffee house is very nice and cozy place . The food is fresh and tasty. And the coffee is really good . The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is warm . A great spot to relaxand enjoy ... 👍👍

Our groups booked with Yama adventures for our trip in Ladakh… We had 2 dinner at Yama Coffee House.. They specially made thai food for us and the other one is Italian Food as Pasta, Pizza and salad. The food is very good and i ordered additional Blueberry cheese cake and coffee.. Love the cheese cake and coffe here too.. The waitress who take our order and also serve our food is so friendly and polite.. she is always smile and say thank you every time you placed the order.

Well the coffee beans is so good & of premium quality at a reasonable price. Not only food & drinks but the ambience is at perfect location, far away from noisy & bustling crowd. You must try cookies, cakes, Israeli, Thai, Indian & Ladakhi cuisines so you would not regret of not trying. If you are at Shanti stupa come downstairs & go through Yama Cafe Coffee house to refuel & refresh on the way to main market.

Another Israeli place. Since they get whites and Israelis they clean table regularly. As a clean freak I appreciate that. Very Israeli oriented hence the service is more Israeli oriented. But good coffeeeeee... But still not able to maintain or clean tbe toilets at all. These places tend to be cheaper for coffee and love it. Cheap coffee and clean table, appreciated!

Had a lovely meal of local Ladakhi and Tibetan cuisine at this restaurant. I was on the hunt for a good non-veg Skyu and we found this place through a Google search. The ambience of the restaurant is great, overlooking the market. We ordered the Skyu and the mutton Shay Phalay. Both exceeded our expectations . Loved the Skyu as it was our first time eating it. The shay phalay was also well made and tasty. I will definitely go back to this restaurant when I visit Leh again

One of my favourite Restaurant 💕 recently I have visited in 2024 June n noticed everything is changed but food quality n hospitality was same as in 2018.

After like 8 days of eating around Ladakh, I can declare that this restaurant serves the best Ladakhi food I've eaten thus far. The Chicken Phingsa is to die for. It was so so good that I vow to return again just for it. Mutton momos pretty nice too though the veg chowmein is just average. We came in late at around 9.45 pm but grateful that they still willing to serve us. They also extended their restaurant hours so we could comfortably finish our food. This restaurant is officially in my must visit again list if I ever come to Leh again.

Had thupka which was really awesome and stomach filling. Pasta was alright. Shakes and ice lemon tea was a cherry topping on it

Amazing tandoori chicken and naan! Chicken was cooked perfectly, very tender with just the right amount of that tandoor dryness. Staff are also friendly, I would come here again!

Best restaurants in town, offered very good foods both Tibetan dishes or Indian ,even European dishes . Great service,clean and reasonable price .

Out of the world soup. Very tasty. We weren't hungry so just had a soup but they made it freshly and taste was quite amazing. Veg wonton soup.

The roof top view is fantastic. Climb up to 3rd or 4th floor, forgot Liao... haha Food taste wise just normal. The shake/juice is fine. Ordered MOMO soup.. just like our Chinese dumbling "wanton" At least something soupy.

Cafe in the main market @ Leh. Nicely located, good ambience providing good service and delicious food.

The food is very okay and I would not suggest anyone that they should go to this place to enjoy some amazing food. The service is extremely slow and I believe they are not very concerned about the hygiene because the tables were slightly dirty. The only good part is that there's a beer. Rather than that there's nothing much to care for.

Himalayan Café August 2023: This place has the most fantastic views from the rooftop. Truly spectacular. The food and ambience are good, too, but it's the views that took my breath away, and it's their main selling point. It's a must-visit, for the rooftop-level restaurant views. (They also have free wifi and restrooms, a MUST in Leh!)

The restaurant has a beautiful view but the food is quite salty for my taste. The mixed rice dish is very delicious. I love it's so much. Half of the cup Affogato was melted ice cream, which is very unfortunate. I dont't know how to staff service was very sad.

Amazing views and nice terrace but honestly the worst food and most expensive food I have ever had in India. Ever single item was undercooked and devoid of flavour, bad coffee too. Come for the view avoid everything else.

Honestly, ambience was good but food was horrible. We tried pizza (3/5), half-cooked very oily spring roll (1/5), red-pepper laced manchow soup (1/5) and pineapple boba (3/5).

Located near the mosque in the centre of Leh market, you get a nice bird’s eye view from here. Difficult to get a table, recommended to call and reserve a table or wait in line for nearly 15-20 mins. Lots of vegetarian options, great sandwiches and wraps. Healthy dishes with nice flavour. The pizza had tasty toppings and a great crispy thin crust. Would have liked the coffee to have had less of a chocolate flavour and more coffee flavour. It was also slightly watery. Great ice tea, not the synthetic kind you get in most places.

Loved the food and the ambience — really impressive! I even had a nice conversation with the chef while ordering; he was very helpful and courteous. However, the service could have been better. The server attending to us seemed angry or uninterested throughout, which affected the overall experience. I visited during the Leh Festival week, so I understand it must have been a busy time, but the service team definitely needs improvement. Only thing missing was a friendly and welcoming service. Great place overall — just hope the service department at Lehvsnda Cafe improves!

One of the best places to have coffee or hot chocolate and amazing food! The ambience, the service and the food. 10/10 for every thing! We came here twice during our stay in leh. You can sip on a nice cold brew or cappuccino or hot chocolate while enjoying the view of the main market street of leh from their corner balcony!

Definitely one of my favourite coffee and breakfast place in Leh. Been coming here for years. It is often too busy for my preferences (was there at 08:30 opening on my video, so good time) but it is a sign that people appreciate it. My favourite breakfast , avocado croffle with latte.

Very nice place where you can enjoy your time overlooking beautiful landscapes. My coffee and food were great. You should consider though they don’t have WI-FI. Anyways, I’d recommend to give this place a try.

Visited this cafe multiple times during my stay in leh… every dish was splendid!

Nice place to have a good breakfast. Pizzas, Pasta and coffees all were too good. Staff Ashiq was very pleasant and welcoming. Worth it place to visit.

Wandrers Cafe – A View Worth the Visit, but That’s About It Located on the second floor, Wandrers Cafe offers a pleasant aerial view of the bustling Leh market — probably its best feature. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience didn’t quite match up. The service was notably slow, with a considerable wait just to place our order. We tried the momos and thukpa, both of which were quite average in taste and lacked any standout flavor. A friend ordered an Oreo shake, but what arrived was a regular chocolate shake with a single Oreo placed on top — more of a namesake than the real deal. Overall, the place might be good if you’re just looking to relax and enjoy the view, but for food and service, it leaves much to be desired.

The Wanderers Terrace & Cafe is an absolute gem in Leh Market! From the moment I walked up in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure that every guest feels at our own home terrace. The ambiance of the cafe is simply stunning. The terrace offers breathtaking views of the Shanti Stupa and Leh Palace, creating a serene and picturesque dining experience. It's the perfect spot to relax and soak in the beauty of Leh with the sound of Dream catchers. The menu is diverse and caters to all tastes. I was particularly impressed with the quality and flavor of the dishes. The pizza and pasta were exceptionally tasty, prepared with fresh, local ingredients and presented beautifully. The cafe’s signature dishes are a must-try, and the smoothies are some of the best I've ever had! What sets The Wanderers Terrace & Cafe apart is its unique blend of excellent service, delicious food, and an unbeatable location. Whether you're looking for a place to unwind after exploring Leh or a cozy spot to enjoy a meal with friends, this cafe has it all. I can't recommend it enough and will definitely be back on my next visit to Leh market✌️🏻

We had paneer and veg rolls, masala tea and masala lemon soda there. We were completely satisfied. The view is superb. See the photos. 🙂

I tried veg thupka and fruit punch, the juice was freshly made without added sugar and still so yummy. Thupka killed my hunger and was perfect blend of veggies and noodles and soupy. Loved it!

Great place for a chai or meal, staff are friendly. There is wifi, good tunes & great views of the main bazaar.

Great place to relax in small ang big groups..best enjoyed in late afternoons so that you can enjoy the outdoor setting without too much sun. Must try the masala chai but the almond pudding was a let down...too sweet and lot of condensed milk. Otherwise food is tasty...could try the continental stuff like grilled chicken or pita bread with hummus although the pita bread was a bit hard. You can spend time here as there is ample sitting area which is a bonus the place does not feel cramped and right in the middle of the market.Pricing is around 400 to 500 INR for main course. You need to walk up a flight of narrow stairs hence not convenient for those who will be uncomfortable with that.

The best place for macchiatos!! Love the ambience, the music and the staff. They are always so kind and want to go the extra mile to take care of their guests. We went there thrice during our visit to Leh this week only for their macchiato but unfortunately they ran out of milk(and borders were closed impacting ration supply) but they went out looking for milk got a couple of cartons and made it just for my son and I. Love this place.. other things that we tried were their farmers pizza which was amazing and their chicken appetisers, egg noodles and veg thukpa are equally good. 😊🥰😋🙌👌😋

This one is situated in the main market with some nice views. You should definitely check the crepiocas here- crepes made of tapiocas. They tasted pretty good. The cafe has nice cozy vibes. The cost was roughly 200-250 rupees.

In love with this place. The service is amazing and the food is great, i haven’t had such an amazing chicken sandwich in a long while. Desserts too are to die for. Must try Brazilian cappuccino

Come for the views, rooftop terrace and cosy lounges - stay for the friendly service, excellent coffee, sumptuous lime cheescake and honey, lemon teas... and of course the free wi-fi! (most helpful).

Ended up introducing others from my hostel to Brazil Cafe about five times. The chocolate cake is amazing, the atmosphere is relaxing and the staff is welcoming. Visited this place a view too many times, and often stayed long just to chill. Also the view from all levels is great!

There is a great sunroof top with great views from the market and the palace. The chicken sandwich was amazing and the capuchino one of the best I have ever had. It was quiet at lunch time. Its a great place to eat more european food and drinks.

Best place in city, where to enjoy big cup of tea and cakes. Tea lovers will enjoy natural mint tea. Prices are cheap compared to other cafes in town. Cafe offers scenic views to the main street and Leh palace. Also plus point for well kept toilet.

The cafe is definitely a must visit place when you are in Main Bazaar, Jamia Masjid Road or Palace Road. Its located above the Ground floor shop. I had a tea here and it just helped me rejuvenating from the tiredness of entire day. On top of it, it has a roof top sitting arrangement which makes things even more enjoyable and memorable as you can see the entire market from both sides of Main Bazaar. Just see pics to have a rough idea of what I am trying to convey...

Had the best Matcha crepe here in 2021. Was searching for the name. But sad to see it’s temporarily closed. Hope it’s open again and I can go there by next year.

It was a last-minute decision to try the cakes and coffee at this cafe after having lunch at Gesmo Restaurant. The establishment is located on Old Fort Road, next to Ladakh Fitness Center. The space is small but nicely furnished. Apart from two tables that can seat 3 to 4 people, there are stools with a bar to one side of the room (for solo travelers, I presume). A glass display near the cash counter houses the cakes available. When we dropped in around 4:30 PM yesterday, there were only a few pieces of cake left. The price for a piece of cake is around Rs. 180. Other drinks and dishes are listed on the wall above the cooking area. There are different types of coffee and tea on offer. We ordered an Apricot cheesecake, a Matcha cake, a Chocolate roll, and two cups of coffee. My friends found the cakes delicious, but I did not feel the same. The Matcha cake did not have enough flavor in my opinion. And the cheesecake was too subtle for my Indian palate. I liked the chocolate cake, although I would have preferred more chocolate. On the whole, I think the flavors are more attuned to the western palate. Subtle and delicate. As I'm used to strong flavors, they did not hit the mark for me. The bill came to Rs. 750.

Great coffee shop in Leh with amazing coffee, matcha latte, breakfast, cakes. We highly recommend !

Very cute and small cafe. Service is excellent. We tried the iced latte, tuna sandwich and veg omelette. All were very well presented and the taste matched the high quality presentation. Good coffee, they grind fresh.

This Café offers the best coffee specialities in Leh, where good coffee ist quite rare to find. The location is not easy to spot but worth looking. The matcha cake was also a dream. The wooden design is hip. Recommended!

Cute cafe. The tuna sandwich was fresh and yummy. We also ordered an omelette with toast along with an iced latte. Everything was good.

After the day we spotted this cafe, we on an average went 2-3 time daily for the next 7 days or so. The cafe is super cosy, cute, and the coffees are amazing. Staff is super warm and courteous, they make you feel at home. I also had the chance to have breakfast there and it was very tasty. A cute cafe with small menu but amazing taste and experience. The staff went above and beyond and made us apricot biscuits (which were off the menu) to make our anniversary special. Such a sweet gesture from their end☺️Thank you Mohan and Heroshimi for the lovely experience.

Very handsome and calm atmosphere in heart of Leh. Cafe is in building from 17.century. It is possible seat inside or outside terrace with palace view.

Lala's Café in Leh is one of my longtime favourite cafes in Leh! Like a small oasis and a great view that perfectly captures the heart of Ladakhi culture and hospitality. Located in a side street of the old town, among traditional Ladakhi houses. The café offers a unique atmosphere that feels like a cross between a living room and a cultural retreat. The interior is simple but cozy, with low-hanging wooden beams, traditional carpets, and colorful cushions on the low sofas. A small incense stick often burns in the corner, which gives off a subtle scent of pine wood and herbs and adds to the calming ambiance. Lala's Café feels like a home away from home, a place where you can not only enjoy delicious food and drinks, but also the stories, warm welcome, and authentic atmosphere that makes Leh so special. They offer also heritage architecture walks, so just ask at the counter. Also they sell nice postcards.

This place is incredibly special. Easily one of the most cherished cafes I’ve been to in the world. It feels like a true artist built it, restored it with their heart. It’s the perfect place to read a book or write, any day of the week. The people that work here are peaceful and kind. I wish them the best and this place remain a beacon for such tranquility in the world.

What a quaint unique cafe in Leh! Located in a restored heritage house with seating at two levels - I especially loved the outdoor seating in the terrace. The menu is limited but delicious. Time seemed to slow down at this cafe. Highly recommended if you are looking to relax and enjoy the city vibes.

The cafe is down a lane just off Leh Main Market Street. It's worth the small trek just for the cool building it's set up inside. Truly, it's a stunning little building, with a massive sense of history and heritage attached to it. However, the additional advantage is that the coffee and food are EXCEPTIONALLY awesome, made with fresh ingredients, and made with love and care. I enjoyed the experience greatly, and I'll go back often to check out the rest of their menu. 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Additional info: The cafe is run by an NGO that's been around since 2003, with their focus on the repair and maintenance of old heritage buildings. The cafe has been around since 2008, and it's run as a non-profit, with all the profits going into maintaining, renewing, and repairing heritage buildings.

Hidden jewel in the old town of Leh. The coffee and cheesecake I had were both delicious 😋 The piece of cake was large enough for three people - very generous. The lady serving us was very friendly.

Restored Heritage Building. 10/10 Ambience, 10/10 Rooftop with a nice view of the palace.

This restaurant is closed since the time of covid and never reopened (i got to know this today). I dont understand why nobody took a little effort to correct this on google! I will do this now. Anyway really a pity, it was one of my favorite restaurants in the past!!

The ambience is great with apricot and apple trees. Staff is nice and friendly. One recommendation from the menu would be their fish with saute vegetables.

The best Tuna Momos and Lamb Burgers you can find in Leh.Staff is excellent and very accommodating.

Lovely place situated at fort road leh..beautiful garden restaurant,apricot tree , best Chinese food..

Just close to Ford Road . Good food. Good service. Nice and quiet place.

Nice restaurant with the sitting in the garden. Would highly recommend tandoori chicken & trout!

We serve best food and nice garden with apple and apricot tree. Also located in main city.

The Café Ladakh Inn on the ground floor of its mother concern, the Ladakh Inn, is a pretty, cozy property, with a wide glass front, wooden floor and wainscot, topped by an especially pretty, carved, wooden ceiling. Unfortunately, it's location on the uninteresting Old Leh Road, means its rarely frequented. However, if you can brave the dull walk down from the more interesting Main Market, you may find the café all to yourself. Its good-value coffeees, cakes and cookies, and especially its specialty - dosas of various kinds - can easily hold your interest for an hour or two.

Best coffee in Leh. Great Cafe if you want good coffee. Cappuccino with double shot was excellent. On the menu, all other options too Cafe Latte and Mocha

Good coffie

By evening , most of the snacks are over.
