Cafe Ivy

Cafe Ivy is the recent addition to the famous Char Dukan area of the serene Landour region. It is a fun and casual restaurant to have a great dining experience. Music is peppy and so is the place. The stairs leading to the café builds up the interest as they are beautifully done with a canopy of LED lights and pretty flower pots. One cannot miss a big copper kettle placed on top of the restaurant near their bill board. As with exteriors, the interiors too are very interesting, replete with recycled wood and lot of vintage stuff, just right to evoke the mountain feel. The fireplace completes the picture; you’d be tempted to have a cup of freshly brewed coffee. The lighting is chic and contemporary. There is a sit out deck which overlooks the gorgeous valley.

Chef Sanjay Dimri is very talented and rustles up great pizzas, pastas, burgers, nachos and sandwiches. Do not miss ‘mama rose pasta’ which is a very creamy and special preparation. There is also a choice of stuffed parathas served with curd. Even if asked to make something off the menu, he will not disappoint. Do not miss having waffles and pancakes here. A group of young boys try their best to offer good service and it is commendable. The place has already become the talk of the town; hence there is a constant pouring in of foodies with tables booked in advance. When you sit out on the deck and eat, be careful of the neighbouring monkeys before they take away your food. The service boys do keep an eye on them though. Walk in at any time of the day, have a wholesome meal and relax with board games or a good book.
