I went to this place back in October 2024 when they just started serving food items. Since it was new here, we stayed from 2 PM to 6 PM and interestingly we were the only customers the whole time. The staff were really nice! We even got complimentary tea. The ambience is really clean and vibey. Some food items are good while others are average. Their Kurkure Momo is really good and a must-try in my opinion. Zafran Tea is amazing! But, also had their papadi-chaat, didn't like it. Hopefully, things have improved since then. Overall, I'd recommended this place.

The staff is friendly, and the service is efficient. The menu offers a good selection of snacks and beverages, and the quality is excellent. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful cafe experience in Boudha!

Located on second floor and has great view of stupa. Bathroom available. Iced chai was tasty. Palak patta chat had nice crispy spinach but a bit spicy. Interesting flavors for momos like chocolate and butter chicken. Prices are higher than average.

I love it here. Best view. When they have iced chai, it’s definitely the best out of all the other places in Kathmandu. Also everyone who works here is so kind. I’ve been working on a paper and they let some spend hours here!

Thanks to google’s good rating, we went to this place albeit with some doubts as we are vegetarians, however we ended up loving everything about the place. The crunchy paneer momo was the best momo I ever had.. And you can view the beautiful Bouddhanath stupa from the cafe.. Highly recommended
