Review The Fat Teapot - Dharamsala

This place is a warm hug through and through. Update after hanging out at my favourite place in Dharamshala: This place warms my heart every single time I visit. The freshest ingredients, a gracious host, beautifully prepared dishes, ...and the chocolate cake is my favourite! Seasonal specials are a must try, especially with Christmas coming up. The place checks off my list of greats. Books. Pets. Art. Coffee. Cakes. Warmth.

During my 2 weeks stay at Rakkar, I was a regular @thefatteapot Great place to hang out after a day at work (mostly walking dogs @daranimals  😊) Oh...and their masala omelette is just fab 😋 Thanks Sonalini !!

Saw this place on Instagram and planned a vist. We visited during Christmas time and the vibe of the cafe was just amazing. They are known for their baked items, tea and coffee. We tried some fresh cinnamon rolls which were amazing. They have many books in their library and one can just relax and spend hours there. The hosts are very welcoming and make you feel really comfortable. Would love to visit this cafe again.

Lovely place to relax, read books and eat. Sonalini, the owner, bakes and cooks wonderfully and the food tastes awesome.

The culinary delights that are cooked and served here are just so amazing & delicious. The owner & staff cook & bake everything with love, using fresh local ingredients! The baked good are so good! The Cafe provides a peaceful setting to get your work done or unwind with a book. I recently had a chocolate cherry pancake and it was beyond anything I could ever imagine! You should definitely visit when your in the Dharamshala area! You will not be disappointed and will leave very happy and in a state of culinary bliss !!

Exactly what a village cafe should be! Very clearly it is the host-owner's labour of love as every thing from the furniture to the wall decor to the curios seem to hold a meaning.

It was a good experience. English breakfast was good. Staff was also good. Ambience was good, it looks like old mud house.

One of the most beautiful and cosy places in the area, with tasty food, good coffee and very kind and welcoming stuff. Also a good place to focus, read or work remotely.

The Fat Teapot offers an experience in amazing yummy baked goodies with a warm cup of best brewed tea and hot chocolate, awesome sandwiches and the coziest interiors to spend a morning, afternoon or evening at with some furry friends

What an absolutely delightful piece of heaven. Love the bakes the most. Sonalini is a wonderful host and so lovely to talk to. Beautifully decorated, with rustic chic aesthetic!

Superb little cafe. Must have the savoury pancake and rosemary potatoes. Get a book and spend the day here.

We stayed very close to this place. It's a great cafe to spend time in. Great food, fast WiFi, welcoming staff and great conversations. The bakery stuff is extra special. They even made gluten-free chocolate cookies on our request. Must visit

Loved the place and the vibe. Great hosts, such good food. A cute place to sit and spend hours working, reading, writing...

Best vibes, great food. Worth the visit here. Just chill and read a book, have some coffee and a lot of other dishes on their menu to try out. I had ordered americano, choco berry cake and watermelon berry cooler. On the first visit, i had tried their bell peppers and eggs sandwiches and choco muffin. The owner is welcoming and friendly.

The place is beautiful and cozy with variety of books to read and relax. We ordered coffee and chocolate shake and they were yummy.

Worth a visit and then many more. If you enjoy good coffee, warm hospitality, broad smiles of the all-ladies crew and appreciate someone taking good care of abandoned dogs.

lovely people, delicious food, cozy space ❤️
