Om Cafe

Mcleod Ganj


Savour great yet inexpensive coffee from a Faema espresso machine or fresh squeezed fruit juices on a sunny, sunset-view terrace lined with potted plants.

It also does a wide range of pizzas (try the walnut-chilli-roquefort combo) and the made-to-order spinach-cheese momos are a gourmet treat that are well worth the (considerable) wait.
