Woeser Bakery is a charming and cozy cafe located in the basement of Black Magic restaurant. It offers a variety of sweet treats, espresso, and has options for vegans and those who are gluten-free. The bakery provides a calm environment to enjoy a perfectly brewed cup of cappuccino. Customers can also indulge in chocolate-covered cherries or savor the famous carrot cake while surrounded by friendly chatter.
Lovely little quiet place tucked into the wall. I loved the peace and solitude I felt here.. unlike hustle and bustle of other cafes. Come here for great cups of coffee, awesome desserts and lovely selection of books!

I love this bakery. It was a random selection from the list. You enter here and there is warmth in the environment. We tried coffee, hot chocolate, tart, and cakes, and instantly felt calm from the winter. Carrot cake is a must! Backyard sitting is also open which has a beautiful view of the city. Enjoy!

Woeser Bakery is a wonderful Tibetan small business that is run by the amazing Sangma! This woman owner bakery is a unique treat located in Dharamshala! The bakery has a wide selection of yummy treats including vegan cakes, tarts, walnut cups, custom cakes, tsampa balls, breads, coffees, shakes, and hot and iced teas! (And more!!) Located on the second floor, it is super easy to find! The vibes are full of love and peace. She named the bakery after her daughter. The baked good are super fresh and yummy! Gluten free options are available! The seating inside is very cozy and has a bright and light filled atmosphere. There is also a terrace to sit on that overlooks the mountains and nearby surroundings (beautiful view!!) Coffee is really fresh and perfectly flavored.

The quaint little cafe tucked away under the Black Magic Restaurant in the mini Tibet Market is perfect for coffee and homemade cakes. It's run by two amazing women who bring the best of homemade confectionary to the visitors. Do try their homemade espresso and any of the tarts. All of them are equally yummy!

A true hidden gem of McLeod Ganj! Woeser bakery is a must try with an impressive array of scrumptious desserts. It is run by a lovely lady, Sangmo who has at several instances baked for his holiness Dalai Lama. I highly recommend the chocolate tart, the chocolate truffle, the carrot cake, the handmade coffee and the rhododendron tea. The place has a very cozy vibe to it and they also have a decent collection of books to read while you’re there.

Crepe Pancake Hut is a charming family-friendly cafe in the hill town of McLeodganj, offering an array of breakfast options and delectable dessert choices. The cozy interior features wooden artwork, framed wall paintings, and a collection of books for visitors to enjoy. With low tables, floor cushions, and a relaxed lounge-like ambiance, it exudes chic vibes perfect for lazy days.
Beautiful heartwarming cozy cafe with an owner who advocates for a vegan diet. You'll need to get here by cab or walking. The nearest paid public car park is a bit far. It's a small cafe with 3 to 4 tables in a room, located on first floor with no lifts. Accessibility could be challenging for some. You'll love the spirit of the place if you care about the establishment being pro-vegan though they carry vegetarian food as well. The owner is a lovely lady who cares about her causes. The place is stacked with a mini library that reflects her values. The menu is fairly limited to crepes, waffles, sandwiches, and other finger foods but you could still enjoy a meal here if you'd like that. The food itself was excellent. The thick banana Nutella pancake was heavenly. The vegan choco chip cookies blew my mind as they were made sugar free. I couldn't understand how it tasted so well if it had no sugar. The avacado sandwich and waffle tasted great too. My wife who is vegan loved the food and wished coming back on a Wednesday when the cafe offers only vegan dishes. Very thoughtful way to promote veganism. The food was well priced, expensive for Mcleodganj standards but definitely worth it if you care about supporting great vegan food!

Go for the breakfast here. Have some freshly made crepe pancakes along with a beverage of your choice and you will thank your stars! Take in the breathtaking view while the aroma of pancakes and crepes waft in the air.

When I think back to my time in McLeodganj, this café stands out as one of the most memorable parts. The cozy atmosphere, the healthy food prepared with care, and the wonderful people I met here made it feel like home. This is the perfect place to read a book and drink tea while watching the mountains outside. Yangzom cares for the guests and makes the place special. I hope to visit again someday.
Ashish D — Google review
A very good restaurant! The restaurant has a cosy atmosphere. The best advantage and a reason, we chose to visit is the fact, that you have gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan options to choose from. If possible, they will let you switch ingredients of a meal based on your special needs. They serve nice big portions, we ordered gluten-free burrito whith avocado and full of boiled and also fresh veggies. The portion was bigger than expected, we almost had problems to finish it :). We were afraid to eat fresh vegs in India because of water contamination, but here they state in the menu that they treat the vegetables with sterilised water, which is very important. We had no problem after eating their vegs. Keep in mind that they don't serve every option from the menu every day, as it is a small restaurant, but you will always have options to choose from even if you have special needs. As a dessert we got a gluten and dairy free pancake with no sugar, just fresh fruit. Very nice experience.

One of our favorite cozy spots in Dharamshala/Mccleod Ganj. Shakshuka, crepes, veg sushi and vegan peanut butter noodles are some of our favorites. Oh and I normally don't like. Kombucha much, but their homemade Mango/mint kombucha is delicious! Must try! (note my husband usually orders extra eggs with shakshuka, the normal portion everywhere is usually 2).

Quaint little cafe with most heartwarming food. The owner has been mindful in advocating enough for sustainability (cloth/ wooden coasters, felt slippers for guests, minimum disposable items) and vegan diet of course! Do yourself a favour and visit over for a breakfast if around mcleodganj.

When visiting Dharamsala, don't miss out on the authentic flavors of Tibet at Yangkhor Tibet Home Kitchen. This local gem offers a taste of the mountain kingdom with its fresh and flavorful dishes. The restaurant's cozy terrace provides a charming setting to savor traditional Tibetan cuisine at affordable prices.
This is the second place in Mcleodganj we tried Tibet food. No doubt this is one of our favourite place. The chef is friendly and amazing. You will understand his efforts while tasting the food. The soup and texture of the thenthuk was so yum. It was so soothing for that cold weather. I loved their Tibet butter tea as well. The ambience is so cute, calm and relaxing.
R. P — Google review
We ordered 2 x Thukpa noodle soups. They came out about 10 minutes apart, they were piping hot which is nice, but a little unexciting and bland. The veggies were nice in there but it wasn't something we'd rush back for. Had to go and find someone at the end to pay our bill after waiting a good 10 minutes. It was steady trade in there (mainly monks) but not overly busy.
Heather E — Google review
We just randomly walked around and saw a sign for this place. We decided to try it out and we are very happy we did. It's probably the best food we've had in Mcleodganj. It's a very local place but clean with a very cute terrace. The food is fresh, made on the spot (we waited a bit but we didn't mind). It's also half the price of those more touristy places

I visited this place with so much hope but it didn't go well, I ordered veg fried and steam momos and it was normal, honestly not at all tasty and they didn't serve momos chutney instead they gave mustard sauce. But you can give a try to other dishes they provide. I hope next time I'll get to eat delicious momos with the red momos chutney.

Nestled in the picturesque hills of McLeodganj, Nick's Italian Kitchen offers a delightful escape for food enthusiasts seeking vegetarian Italian cuisine. This charming café boasts stunning views of the Kangra Valley and Dhauladhar mountain range, creating an enchanting backdrop for your dining experience. With its rustic wooden decor and cozy ambiance, it’s an ideal spot for both intimate gatherings and solo meals.
I was not expecting to find Italian food today. I am in India, furthermore, I am in Dharamshala which is a Tibetan enclave. But a friend lured me here. I ordered the Spinach Ravioli. The pasta was delicately soft, as only freshly made pasta can be. The spinach was fresh and green and delicious. The tomato sauce tasted like it came from an Italian grandmother, fresh and nutritious and made with great attention. The best pasta I’ve ever had in my life. Plus the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful and the view of the Himalayas—well, there are no words for that.

Nicks Italian kitchen is a must visit place. The ambience, the food and the people serving it, everything is good. Amazing food and a great place to visit if in Mcleodganj and an amazing view out the window! It has a lovely open terrace with great views of the mountains and some of the snow-covered Dhauladhar peaks. The menu is wide-ranging and every dish is delicious and freshly made. Don’t miss out their desserts!

I had high expectations for Nick's Italian Kitchen, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment. The food was completely bland—even the pasta lacked any real flavor. Service was painfully slow and inattentive, making the whole experience frustrating. To make matters worse, even the desserts were subpar. The carrot cake with cream cheese, in particular, was just bad. The only saving grace was the ambiance, but that alone isn't enough to make me want to return. Definitely not worth the hype!

There bread is such good quality. The service is good, view from outdoor seating is breathtaking. Prices are decent. I would love to go there again. PLEASE HAVE THEIR BROWNIES, THEY ARE DELICIOUS.

A small and charming café tucked right along the bustling streets of McLeodganj. Here every lane seems to hide a gem or two. Nick’s is definitely one of those. Perfect for a quick bite or a relaxed coffee break while soaking in the mountain vibe. I really liked their simple and thoughtful practice of asking customers to write down their orders on paper, it adds a nice personal touch to the whole experience. Definitely worth a stop if you’re wandering through these lively streets.

Nestled in McLeodGanj, Jimmys Italian Kitchen is a charming and cozy spot that offers traditional Italian cuisine with a Himalayan twist. The restaurant is renowned for its classic flavors, featuring wood-fired pizzas, creamy pastas, and delectable desserts like tiramisu. With its rustic decor and stunning mountain views, it provides a warm and inviting atmosphere for a delightful dining experience.
Jimmy’s Italian Kitchen is hands down one of the finest places I’ve ever visited for authentic Italian food, especially their pizzas. From the moment you step in, you are welcomed with warm hospitality that instantly makes you feel at ease. The staff is extremely polite, attentive, and always ready with a smile, which truly adds to the overall dining experience. The highlight, without a doubt, is their pizza – freshly baked with the perfect balance of flavors, crispy yet soft base, and rich, high-quality toppings that melt in your mouth. You can clearly taste the effort and passion that goes into every dish they serve. Along with pizza, the rest of the menu also carries a wide variety of Italian dishes that are equally tempting and full of authentic taste. Another thing that makes this place truly special is the breathtaking view from their windows. Sitting there with delicious food while enjoying such a peaceful and scenic view feels like the perfect combination. It adds a sense of relaxation and makes the experience memorable.

One of the most celebrated cafes in Mcleodganj. Good place, dishes are good as well but not as great as the hype. The window offer lovely views and you can enjoy them chugging down some beers. The location is in the market and during the day it’s a struggle to get your car anywhere near the cafe. So, the best approach would be to walk. Don’t get confused with Jimmy’s bakery.

We had heard from someone that Jimmy is renowned as one of the best restaurants in McLeodganj. But we wrongly went to Jimmy’s Himalayan Kitchen instead. Unfortunately, they were not serving dinner at that time, so one of the waiters kindly directed us to this one which was just a short walk away. This restaurant is located on the first floor, and we navigated a rather narrow staircase to get there. Upon arrival, we noticed several groups enjoying the mattress seating area. We opted for a table and placed our orders, which arrived in a timely manner. The restrooms, located on the second floor, could benefit from some improvements. When I requested a beer, I was informed by the waiter that customers are responsible for serving themselves. While this was unexpected, I chose to overlook it. We sampled a variety of dishes including pizzas, pastas, and juices, all of which were quite satisfying and generously portioned. The option for online payment with a credit card was convenient. The staff maintained a neutral demeanor throughout our visit. Overall, we believe this restaurant holds its ground in the McLeodganj dining scene, and it’s certainly worth considering for a meal.

We visited Jimmy’s Italian Kitchen in McLeodganj and ordered the vegan pizza, Arrabbiata pasta, and two virgin mojitos. The food tasted good—well-prepared and flavorful, especially the pasta. The mojitos were refreshing and tasted just like you’d expect at any good dine-in restaurant. Portion sizes were quite generous—definitely enough for three people. We couldn’t finish everything, so the bill of around ₹1100 felt a bit pricey for two, but would’ve made more sense for a group. The place has an old-school charm, though it felt a bit dated, and during our monsoon visit, there was some water dripping from the ceiling which was a downside. Overall, a decent spot for Italian food in McLeodganj—especially if you're dining with friends or family.

Went to Jimmy Kitchen after seeing so many reels but honestly, it’s just all hype. The place was stinky the moment we walked in. Felt damp and unclean. Totally put me off. Food was nothing special, very average. Service was fine ..we sat there for so long and no one came to take our order. When they finally did, they gave us a handwritten bill and still charged GST. No proper bill .. that’s just not okay. Vibe was totally missing. Didn’t enjoy anything. Waste of time and money. So many better places around .. not sure why this one is hyped.

Moonpeak deli has delicious food, with homemade brown sourdough and delicious house made curries and hummus. I came back here many times during my trip in McLeod Ganj and enjoyed the ambience, the staff and the acceptance they had for me to hang for hours (literally), read my book and watch the McLeod Ganj streets go by. I highly recommend eating the Thali and endless ginger lemon honey tea! Thanks guys, you were an anchor for me during my two weeks in McLeod Ganj.

The Clay Oven Restaurant, located in Mcleod Ganj at Tipa road, offers a unique dining experience with its interior adorned with hard wood, globe lanterns, and flower baskets. Specializing in Tibetan cuisine, the restaurant also features popular Nepali, Italian, and Thai dishes prepared with authentic recipes infused with modern culinary techniques. Situated at the main circle in the McLeod Ganj Market, this family-friendly eatery is known for its flavorful fried momos.
The Clay Oven Restaurant, located in the bustling Main Square of McLeodganj, offers an aesthetically simple and serene Himalayan-Tibetan vibe. The decor features charming spherical lanterns and simple wooden tables and chairs, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. We tried their chicken momos and egg fried rice. The momos were outstanding—perfectly steamed with a flavorful filling, and the accompanying momo chutney and chili oil were absolutely fabulous. The egg fried rice, while standard, was well-prepared but overshadowed by the delicious momos. The prices are on the steeper side, but considering its prime location and authentic Tibetan charm, it’s worth the visit for a relaxed meal in McLeodganj.

Almost no words to describe my experience... I came here and looked at the menu. Firstly i was bamboozled by the options😅. Then i made up my mind to try lamb for the first time in my life. I ordered Shakam Datshi which is inspired from a Bhutanese cuisine. It was served with an option of tingmo or steamed rice on the side. I ordered both. The taste was equally heavenly with both the sides. My forst time having lamb and the experience was sublime.

We loved every thing we had. It is so worth the hype. We had double roasted pork, Tibetan thali and Tolumein chicken soup. Every single thing was so filling and so delicious. It was our first meal in McLeod and a great start to our trip.

Beautiful interior Cosy place for breakfast, lunch and dinner Thupka could have been better in terms of quantity of soup. The noodles were too loaded and wasn’t in right proportion with the amount of soup and veggies. But the taste was good Must try- Cappuccino and broccoli chicken stir fry. Those were absolute bomb and so was the veg omelette

After reading some good reviews about it online me and my family decided ti have our brunch here. We ordered A manchow shoup along with some unique handcrafted dimsums and a pad Thai. Their pad thai was unfortunately even less craftful and authentic than a chow Mein from a local roadside vendor, with flavours and ingredients going haywire. The dimsums were ordered without mushrooms but they came with the mushrooms and the owner kept on insisting that it didn't contain mushrooms even after we showed him a few pcs. Finally we enjoyed our manchow soup and left it to try some of the other more authentic cafes in Mc leod

Nestled at the end of Jogibara Road, The Chocolate Log is a delightful haven for dessert lovers and food enthusiasts alike. Founded by Cheryl Templeton, an inspiring figure with a charming story, this cozy spot offers an array of heavenly homemade cakes that are simply irresistible. From the rich Blueberry Cake to the decadent Death By Chocolate, each bite promises to be a treat for your taste buds.
Atmos scored 4 as I was dining early and only one in, but I can imagine this place really rocks later on. The sweetcorn soup was excellent and the Manchurian chicken fabulous. Must be high on the list of places to go in McLeod Ganj.

Worst experience in Mcleodganj- Stayed in the city for more than 3 days but didn’t witness such a service. We with our friends went to the place and live singing was happening. The Folks servicing asked us to not drink from the alcohol bought from outside the cafe. We agreed and ordered food. While waiting my friend requested if he can also sing as the main singer from the cafe was done and was resting. The folks serving their denied very rudely and didnt even took our order after 15 mins when we checked on status they just cancelled it impromptu. Pathetic place please avoid - better visit - Mcllo, Papa Wisky , Jimmy’s ( Good empathetic staff and good food and ambience)

Perfect Place to Sit, Enjoy Live Music over Weekends and have your delicious BITE of the CAKE and Hot Chocolate! Came here just casually strolling around on the streets of M'Ganj! Really liked the Ambience and Loved the Crockery and Lights! We ordered Hot Chocolate, Carrot Cinnamon Cake, Banana Cake, Double Chocolate Cake! I personally enjoyed everything except Banana Cake, but others liked that as well! Enjoyed our time here with loads of Books and few Games to Play! On Weekdays, the place is bit quiet and not crowdy if one wants to enjoy that atmosphere! On Weekends, place is quite happening with Live Music and Crowd! I recommend trying this place when in M Ganj! Place accepts Cards, UPI and Cash!

Came here for dessert and a coffee after dinner because the reviews were so great. The coffee was pretty good but the brownie cake was dry as could be and barely edible. The carrot cake was inedible, with plastic like icing, hard and dry cake, completely tasteless. Both cakes were obviously microwaved (completely unnecessary) and likely a few days old.. I give three stars because the coffee was still very good and the staff was friendly and did take the uneaten carrot cake off my bill.

An amazing tasteful experience of the local bakery on the streets of McLeodganj. It has mouth watering cakes, muffins and pastries. We tried Carrot cake - juicy and perfect taste Old monk chocolate cake- perfect blend of chocolate, rum and raisins. An ultimate romance of melting chocolate with a hit of rum that reached your brain as soon as it melts in your mouth. Chocolate mud cake was great in taste and perfectly layered with melted chocolate. And lastly the finest was banana muffins. It had melting bananas inside and that taste.. It was amazing. The bakery owner, the chef and a humble guy adds worth having at least one from here.

This place is certainly one of the best place for vegetarian fast food. If you ignore the old and rusty ambiance, this place is actually good in terms of food. The highlight of this place is the price point of each food items. It’s very affordable that’s why sometimes it is jam packed, which might not play a good part in your experience. It’s an old school type restaurant, so don’t expect any kind of funky ambiance. During my visit, I ordered veg Tandoori Momos, Amritsari Naan with Chana, Pani Puri, Gulab Jamun and a glass of Lemon Soda. To my surprise, everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. I definitely recommend you to try their Tandoori Momos. Overall, I definitely recommend this place to everyone.

We recently visited bhagsu restaurant and had a mixed experience. The Naan Chole we ordered had some inconsistencies in preparation - the Naan was a bit burnt on one side and undercooked on the other. The Raita was okay, but the Chole could have been better. We also noticed that the dining area needed some attention to cleanliness. Overall, we hope the restaurant takes feedback constructively and works on improving its service and food quality

13/2/25 🩷 We wanted to have chocolate truffle pastry, but that wasn't available, so we chose to have chocolate delight as it was the only chocolate pastry available that could get heated. 🩷 We asked to heat it to eat it warm, but when they served it, it wasn't warm; it was of normal temperature, and then we said again to heat it. 🩷 The second time they heated it, maybe at a high temperature, all the layers got separated, and the chocolate melted. Anyways, the pastry was delicious, and being warm, it tasted better. 🩷 1 chocolate delight pastry was of Rs 150. 🩷 The ambience is nice. It's a quiet, cute, and cosy place. 🩷 The interior is also done well. 🩷 There's a sitting area outside, which looks good too. 🩷 Due to the cold weather, we chose to sit inside the cafe. 🩷 If you ask for a bill, they have to make a GST bill, so we said to write on a paper what we ordered with the price, and that was the bill. 🩷 If we visit Dharamshala again, we would try their other cakes as well, as they looked good too. 🩷 Although the prices are high. But the quality, taste, and quantity seem fine.

My go to place for chocolate truffle cake. It's absolutely luscious, and the perfect pick me up after a bad meal or a bad day. Their vanilla and blueberry cheesecake aren't bad either, though a tad sweet for my taste. The pizza quality fluctuates, though is generally good, and their thalis are really good as well. The cafe is on a busy street, so it's perfect for people watching, though if you want a respite from the noise and busyness, it's best to sit upstairs. The staff is friendly, and the ambience comfortable. The extension to the inside seating downstairs is a welcome addition.

The most trusted and beloved Indian sweet shop of Kotwali / Sadar Bazar, Dharamshala, H.P. All old timers and their next generations buy sweets from here especially during the festive season. Sadly, this street used to be more famous earlier and is now less visited ( people owning more cars and skipping this street) , causing the footfall at this shop to reduce compared to the shops on the main road. SUGGESTION: please add more variety, try to reduce sugar quantity (e.g in Barfi range, Tillbhugga...), offer more desi ghee variety to meet changing customer choices. Thanks for your yummy sweets and snacks ( dal moth, khoya barfi, jalebi, till bhugga)
