Cafe Samsara

Nagaland


This hotel restaurant is one of Kohima’s most popular, with clientele relaxing on sofas and tucking into Indian, Continental or Chinese fare. Part of the attraction is that they also serve beer, wine, whisky and vodka. There's a good music soundtrack throughout the day, and a fireplace for cold winter nights.

It's up on a hillside 4km south of the centre (₹150 by taxi).
