Jimmy’s Italian Kitchen

Mcleod Ganj


Spacious and inviting on two levels, with options to sit at gazeworthy-window bar stools, Jimmy’s offers a choice of 18 sauces for its pastas including a tomato-cream-vodka chicken penne.

There's pizza to go, lasagne-of-the-day, delicious aubergine bake, baked potatoes and dishes such as chicken Florentine that make a nice change from standard McLeod menu fare.
