Just off MG Marg this cafe recommended by a friend was really cute. Very less sitting arrangement so we decided to sit on a stool outside. With people passing by and a chilli weather and the sun on and off the experience was fabulous.
The service is great. The food is fabulous and location can't get better.
Recommended cafe to visit when in Gangtok.. Cheers ✌️

Do i even need ti write a review for such an amazimg place? My picture below speaks everything. If you wanna have the best laphing in the town then you gotta visit this place. Price is also reasonable as the food they serve is of rare quality that you might only find here and no where else. My favourite place to chill out.

A teeny tiny place on the market road, this place is the highest rated of all the places in Gangtok and you understand why as soon as you take the first bite.

The place has only 3 tables, seating a maximum of 12 *slim* people. The walls and the furnitures are beautifully curated and there is a huge pastry selection in a display case. The kitchen is an open kitchen which is somehow present there as well. The place felt like a very well made lego set.

The servers are absolutely nonchalant and it shows in their service as well. Service is fast only because everything is there itself. I couldn't find much positives with the servers of the place.

But let's come to the main reason this place is the highest rated. Anyone that was coming in was ordering a plate of Laphing. What is Laphing you ask? It is just a plate of spice lover's paradise. So much so that I had to order one more bowl as soon as I finished the first one. Their pizzas look delectable and their drinks are pretty awesome as well.

The place might be a little on the expensive side, but the food is genuinely worth it.

My advice would be, come take away your food, and enjoy it anywhere you like in the beautiful city.

Recommended for food.

The specials are excellent and the Tsampa Shake is great. Try the chinese style pasta and the lettuce and mango salad. Excellent service and highly hygienic.

A very pleasant and cool cafe. Friendly staff. Service oriented. Delicious food. I could taste their delectable laphing, spicy gorkha chicken pizza(wasn't spicy at all for my taste but was good with added seasoning) and refreshing ginger lemon honey tea. If I return to Gangtok I will make it a point to come back here. Keep up the good work.

Found this cute little place while walking around MG Road Market. I love the cosy ambience of this place, and the food that I'd ordered was also delicious. I bought a slice of lemon cake and some soaps made by local rural women. I love how this place supports local industries as well. I just couldn't find the vegetarian soups I saw on the menu. However, the cakes I've had here are delicious!

P.S: I highly recommend the carrot cake, lemon cake, and the orange soap.

The local Cafe has great desserts. They smell fresh and they taste quite good and I hope this place gains more reputation. They can probably improve on the portions though.

One of the cutest cafes of gangtok. Located on the MG marg its a small little cafe which is usually crowded and serves all kinds of food and desserts. We tried the la-phing which is a local tibetian dish and a classic cheesecake. Both were amazing. Do visit if in gangtok

Food and Ambience is really good. As a tourist, I loved the TLC Exclusive dishes such as Yellow Laphing, Shanghai Pasta and Tsamthuk soup. The staff are really polite and helpful. I highly recommend this place for tourists.

Loved it. Like Seriously. Their service is very good and prompt. Food is amazing! Try the Himalayan thali..and the cakes!!! Yummy.. banana pie, apple crumble, vanilla cake and doughnut. Also try their ginger lemon tea. It's so damn refreshing. And their Oreo shake is to die for. Cold coffee is also good.

Got a double espresso and yellow (veg.) laphing. Both the dish and the coffee were exceptionally flavorful. The coffee beans seemed freshly grinded and the profile was sour-bitter in a 50-50-ish proportion and I liked it a lot. The laphing was very, very soft, with a little bit of resistance and the filling was very soft, slightly paste-like and spicy, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Recommended.

Pretty aesthetic cafe situated in M.G Road, Gangtok. They had a wide variety of food items and bakeries in their menu. The must try one is The Lafing, we tried the Veg Lafing, stuffed with spicy soya bean, absolutely delicious ❤️‍🔥 10/10. There are other varieties of Lafing available.

Landed on the first day of my Gangtok trip to this little cosy cafe and fell so much in love with it that I spent every day there till the last day of my tour. Their chocolate brownies are so chocolaty and gooey, the cheesecake is straight from the heaven and the new found love ‘lafing’ was spicy and fabulous! If you are in Gangtok, give this place a try♥️

Less glamour and more taste. A good blend of a dedicated menu of local cuisine. The photos give a better testimony to the vibe and taste. Shout out to the hardworking staff.
