The cafe is located at such a beautiful place that one doesnt feel like leaving this place. The Positives about this cafe would be the LOCATION, their SPECIAL PIZZA, the refreshing LEMON NANA also the Negatives would be Buddha Platter, White Sauce Pasta as they were lacking taste, flavours completely.Recommended!

This is one of the best places that you can explore in Rishikesh.You have bank of ganges, breeze to calm your mind and awesome food to calm your hunger.It was one of the best experience that I had in Rishikesh and I recommend that everyone must go to this place.

Good food, nice location, chill music, cool and calm vibes thats what I can describe the place. The special Pizza 🍕 is the best dish to try in the restaurant and its really delicious 😋 Best time to come is the night time youll definitely love the lightings and the cool winds blowing.

Nice place to sit by river side view and have your food. Try to get the river side tables(only 3-4) to have the best experience. Rich menu and taste was good. Only issue was waiting time. I actually get mild hot momos.. although taste was great. Will visit again for sure

It feels like when we hear some places which are mentioned everywhere and by everyone else, I feel it can be a hyped up thing but this place proved me wrong.We went there for our breakfast in the morning and the place was not very crowded but still we could not get ourselves some seats near the Ganga.We ordered a Vegan and Israeli breakfast platter and it was really yummy. The food was cooked with right amount of flavours and textures. It was healthy and nutritious. We also had mint tea which was soul satisfying.I recommend this place for people who want to have some really good breakfast since its not very crowded then and you can enjoy some really good meals without any rush.

Only go for the view, the food quality and taste is just below average. We went on a sunday afternoon the place was super busy andnto our surprise we were served cold food. The taste is just not good, not sure how this place has great reviwes. Only thing i liked was the drink named Lemon Nana

I dont know why people have created hype of this cafe, but personally I didnt liked the food at all the only thing that is worth is the viewThe View of river Ganga and food is not worth.I ordered Mix sauce pasta and there was a Cardamom(eliachi) in the pasta like dude seriously?Cardamom in pasta having 3,4 years of experience in cooking Italian cuisine for 5star hotels but I never added the Cardamom in pasta it was not worth a single penny in pasta there was only cheese cheese and cheese ,tbh I am very disappointed with the service and second thing they take around 30mins to bring your order but not brings the proper order asking them to bring again they never bring again PATHETIC service 2 star I am giving is just because of thier cold coffee and That view,Rest the cafe is pathetic never going here again neither recommending people to go here instead of having any continental cuisine here people must go to Chotiwala resturant to have amazing Indian cuisine .Definately not worth going

Well, The ambiance is good, the staff is good, everything is good but the food is somewhat okay.Like they cook amazing Chinese food but when it comes to pizza, french fries, or even shakes, its not at all worth the money.Who puts pineapple in a pizza?I can even make a shake with Hershey and say its a chocolate shake.And Also cheese pasta but it was not at all worth it.3/5 because 2 stars for Ambiance, staff, and view and 1 star for Chinese foods, like Chowmein and Chilly Potato, they were damn tasty.

Review №17

This is a very famous cafe in Rishikesh. I had heard about it so much that I thought it will be just another overhyped cafe.I had visited this cafe twice with my family, in the evening as well as during day time. The interiors are simple and soothing. Mildly lit and romantic. The staff is very friendly and make your feel even more comfortable. Food is very delicious, a bit on the pricier side, but still worth it. White sauce pasta, pizza, hot chocolate etc. are a must try.

Review №18

Visited this place during our stay in Rishikesh. Went here for dinner...the roads were all dark with minimal street lights. When you locate this place it might not be appealing but as we stepped inside the ambience started getting better. Located right across the Ganges-it gives a lovely view of the river and the Laxman Jhula. Staff is good but service is a bit slow. Food is good. Along with veg and vegan you can also get eggs here. One big problem is that they ONLY ACCEPT CASH. So incase you are short on it, withdraw some and then go.

Also they have a variety of food items and beverages.Service was a bit slow but the food was worth waiting.You may have to wait for the table if you come at rush hours, not a place for you if youre in hurry.

One of the best cafes to visit when in Rishikesh. My Rishikesh visit is incomplete without visiting this happening place. Generally, this place is always full of firangis, the ambience is cosy and with a clear view of Ganga and Laxman jhula.The food of this cafe is amazing though the service is kinda slow.Falafel all and cold coffee is highly recommended and my all-time favourites. Also try their pasta and momos they won’t disappoint you at all.

Review №25

Probably one of the best Cafes out there...When you visit the cafe, you might find it a bit hard to find the place, but inside this cafe, it is huge...They have an awesome wooden architectural looks overlooking mighty Ganga and rest of the town...So if you get the chance, go for the the farthest seat you get, so that you can enjoy the beautiful river view along with your meal.I, for one, had ordered Yogi Veg Breakfast...and boy, that was a handful amount of food I could have got. Due to some shortage of row materials they tried to compensate me with other items in the plate...So, heres what I got..a full glass, around 300ml of Filter Coffee...a huge glass, around 400-500 ml of Banana Shake, a plate of 2 toast and soft butter...a full glass of around 300ml milk with a Musli and last, but not least, a huge bowl of Fruit Salad....all for ₹290. This, by no means, was a platter for 1 person...So I am gonna give full marks for the views, the ambiance and the portion size to Cafe.

Little Buddha Café is a must-visit when in Rishikesh. The cafés food was tasty. The most famous and crowded café in Rishikesh. If you are in the UK, you must go here. The best aspect is the view of the Ganga River from the café.

I have been here since Lockdown, and Little buddha Cafe was the lunch place everyday, now it has changed so devastating for me to eat a plate full of Garlic, I ordered two dishes for i was super hungry, and they gave me plates with food full of Garlic, and took a tremendous time to cook that, it used to be so great, now not so much.

Little congested and over crowded. Sitting arrangements makes it more suffocating.Only those who get the seats by the end near the river view are happily breathing, rest others are just waiting to get their food and leave.But the additional information is, food is not so great. And because of rush it arrives really late.So better be going only if you have ample time to experiment.

Little Buddha Cafe is THE BEST CAFE in Laxman Jhula vicinity and in fact in entire Rishikesh town. This places vibe is just amazing and gives a sudden shift from outer holy city vibes to chilled out vibes.Be it cool interiors, attractive exteriors, food options or service it stands out as a ideal cafe in the town and a must to head out for when in Rishikesh.

We went there at night. But it the air was so heavy because of all the smokers, and so dark that we couldnt stay there for long and left. Next day we went in the afternoon thinking it would be better and it was . We ordered tacos, veg pulao and a banoffee pie. The veg pulao was okay, the tacos was given in chapati but it tasted good and the banoffee pie wasnt that tasty.The service is quick and the staff is nice.

Nice cosy ambience with music along riverside Ganga enhances positive vibes. Miling who served us was so friendly and courteous...he also gave us good suggestions that we could order. We had ordered Pizza, Veg Fajitas, Noodles and Manchow soup. Food was super tasty and quantity was also good enough. I must say their star dish was Shakshuka Israeli food that had amazing flavours.

Awesome food, it was like my dream come true. I always wished to eat food like this which is close to impossible to get in the restaurants of U.P., we had healthy Vegan Breakfast..it included vegetable juice of spinach and green apple along with scrambled tofu and toast with peanut butter. Just yummy and so satisfactory...satisfaction of having something healthy and light.☺️

After listening to little budha name my expectations were too high . But when i visited this place tasted some overrated dishes and my expectations just broken down .Yes it is very very over hyped place . Too crowdy , u will receive ur order on table after 40 - 50 mins of food order. Taste was not at all good except desserts , this place is friendly for street dogs and pet owners which i like it . But too noisy , too loud , very slow service , bad taste . Price are good . Location is near lakshman jhula it is a shopping area.

A narrow staircase leads up to this cafe overlooking the Ganges. The place is a bit cramped and has a low ceiling. It wasn’t very clean either and a dog was fast asleep on one of the chairs!They have a multicuisine menu. We tried their lentil burger and gnocchi. It was just about okay with the accompanying fries being really soggy. We tried a couple of drinks which again weren’t upto mark.The meal portions were big and pricing was reasonable.Overall, it wasn’t up to our expectations. These guys really need to up their game!

The food is very good, and dishes are very generous portion, they have a lot of options (Italian, Indian, Chinese, Mexican, etc) this place have an amazing view to the river. The service it’s a little annoying (like almost places in Rishikesh) take to much bring to you a drink (one hour) but anyway, it’s a great place to enjoy a good talk, reading a book, watch the wild monkeys. Also the waitress are little weird, one of them was smelling my hair! (That was very annoying) respect the personal space of your customers please !!! 😑 NO NICE DUDE. Not even the monkeys do that 🙄
