Review River View Cafe - Rishikesh

Beautiful experience. Enjoyed Good sathvik food sitting in front of Ganga. Very polite staff. Got very good Ayurvedic treatment

Visited several times during my short Rishikesh trip and loved the ambience, customer service and food. I had iced coffee, butter masala and a banana pancake - they were all delicious. "Joy" who works there was very friendly, remembered my name after my first visit (my second visit was a week after) and was even kind and trusting enough to lend me a book that was sitting on their counter. When I tried to return it, he said to finish it and pass it on to someone new which I found really beautiful!

The view from here is Amazing.. the food... Umm yeah the food is good.. so a great combo of food and beautiful view of Ganga River

Excellent vegan eatery and an awesome Ganges river view!!! Worth multiple visits.

Excellent location near Lakshman Jhula. Great view. The tables here are very low and one sits on cushions on the ground - people with bad knees may find it difficult. You are asked to remove your shoes before entering. The food is well prepared although the hoummus I got was bitter and inedible - they were thoughtful enough not to charge me for it. Everything else I had was very good. The music here is sort of ... well, monkish. All in all, a good place to have a lazy meal.

Ambience is awesome- facing the river and the place is colorful with great vibes. Rihaan and Reeta who runs the place are extremely friendly and very hospitable.. We went for dinner and we were fortunate to get a corner seat facing the river. We loved the place so much we went again mainly for the ambience . Highly recommend this place if you want to have a relaxed dinner in a warm place. PS they also host live music

Amazing view, had fried icecream for the first time

Beautiful ambiance, loved the vibe and awesome music. Must visit place

One of awesome cafe in Rishikesh. View is beautiful.

Stayed there for one night, they have a cafe on first floor and a guest house on ground floor. Their room was small and bathroom was not so much clean in Guest house as compared to the price and other available options, but they have a fabulous location and view is mesmerising from common balcony of guest house. Ganga is flowing just behind it. Soothing sound of flowing water and cold winds will give you an ultimate peace. Tried food in their cafe, again a very beautiful view with comfortable seating. They are good in western foods like crepes etc. but we had north Indian food. It was good and tasty. Price is moderate. Overall a good experience. Lady on counter is a nice person. It's being managed by her family.

I visited on 1st of Jan in a group of 8 and let me state that each one of us were quite ecstatic at the end that we landed at the cafe as the place offered such delicious food with breathtaking ganga view. Dal makhani deserves a special mention and is a must try here. Ram jhula and Lakshman jhula are both visible from the cafe. Top quality experience. Highly recommended.

Best sunset view from The Monk cafe...must visit when in Rishikesh...
