We are so glad we came here for food! We became regular customers instantly and would love to visit here again if we come back to Manali. The food is made with lots of love. Every dish is made with authenticity that we did not find elsewhere in the town. Great good for reasonable price. I’ve put all the pictures of the food that we are here

This place has a nice vibe, its a small cafe with not much seating but the hosts seem genuinely nice. We had a mix chicken and veg barbecue here and the sauce made by them. Definitely a place worth trying when in Old Manali. The quantity of the platter is good and was barbecued in western style. Good variety of menu. Would definitely like to visit again

One of the coziest cafe to visit in Old Manali. The food has been well prepared. It is a must visit place. Mr Ashok, manager of this entity is most humble and likeable person you can meet in Manali. My spouse was suffering from food poisoning (due to dinner we had at mall rd) and when he heard he insisted to make Khichadi and voila she recovered after few hrs,many thanks. Must visit cafe to enjoy food and human connection.

We recently had the pleasure of experiencing the culinary genius of Chef Ashok at Cafe Del, a hidden gem nestled in the enchanting town of Old Manali. Chef Ashok's passion for food shines through in every dish. The creativity and attention to detail in the flavours, textures, and presentation are a testament to their expertise and dedication to their craft. With a focus on using fresh, seasonal ingredients, the Chef showcases the rich flavours of the Himalayan region in a remarkable way. Each dish is a harmonious blend of vibrant spices, fragrant herbs, and perfectly balanced sauces. We enjoyed indulging in various dishes that left us spellbound during our visit. The Chef's special Barbeque Chicken (A MUST TRY) was a true highlight. Apart from this, we tried a variety of dishes such as Idli & Dosa, Chicken Wrap, Chicken Biryani, Cheese Sandwich, Chicken Curry, Chicken Noodles, and much more😋😋 Beyond the culinary delights, the passion and dedication of Chef Ashok and their team at Café Del shine through in their interactions with guests. Their willingness to cater to dietary preferences and offer personalized recommendations demonstrates their commitment to ensuring a memorable dining experience.

Best Cafe in Old Manali. Excellent is the only word to describe. Each and every food served FRESH MADE. We have enjoyed Hydrabadi Biryani, Chicken 65 in Lunch. It is a chef owned cafe. So you get everything Authentic. They have shown us fresh Trout, will be used by today. They buy everything everyday. They DONT USE refrigerated food. They make biryani every time before serving. They dont have big handi unlike other biryani joints. (This is the best part we liked so much) Taste and price wise superb. It is a MUST VISIT place in Old Manali. Chef 10/10, Hospitality 10/10, Food quality 11/10.

My Fianceé and I had a wonderful experience at this beautiful quaint cafe. The owner Mr. Ashok who is also a chef was extremely friendly & suggested some of his dishes, the BBQ chicken, dal makhani, rice accompanied with their very special blue tea. We instantly became a fan of his cooking. Our only regret was that we did not find this cafe sooner. The quality of food spoke for itself, with such reasonable prices and wonderful flavours. It was for sure one of our best dining experiences in Manali. Sure to visit this place again and very strongly recommended for everyone to try.

We kept coming back for the pizza (best cost-benefit ratio in town), the Nepalese thali and the super friendly Nepalese staff. They also play the guitar very well 😀 Del 37 has a wide selection of teas that we liked as well.

Food is delicious and very affordable, hosts are very kind and the atmosphere is as peaceful as welcoming with always good music! Whenever you go, for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just a cup of tea, you will always have a good time!

Authentic South Indian food in Manali. If you guys are looking for authentic South Indian food and hyderabadi biryani then do come to this place. Food is very tasty and price is also very genuine as compared to other cafe's in Manali. Owner of Cafe is very polite and respectful. He will guide you for places to roam around.

Owner is a professional chef and offers everything on the menu and beyond that as well. He suggested barbecue chicken and this was surely one of the best barbecue chicken we had till date. Only point to be noted and kept in mind while visiting this place is, he prepares the food freshly on order and it may take sometime for preparation e.g. barbecue chicken took around 30mins but as I said it was worth the wait. Literally finger licking good as you can see from before and after photos 😉

We were in search of a place to eat lunch at. We came across this kind of dainty cafe and thought of giving it a go due to the reasonable prices. What followed was the best food experience we have had at Manali in our short trip. We were shocked to find that it had a 4.9/5 rating even with 300+ reviews, and I see no reason why it shouldn't be the case. Great food, a nice ambience and a very friendly manager. Couldn't recommend this place more. We had the dal fry, chole and lamb sheekh along with tawa rotis.

Had a superb experience at this cool cafe with hippy vibe serving organic tea. Boss and staffs were excellent with exemplary service. Highly reccomend to try them out when in the area. And definitely got to taste their tea. They have more than 25 types of tea! Prices were cheap compared to their competitors

Good Place. For certain dishes order needs to be placed in advance, because the chef takes time to make certain signature dishes like Barbeque chicken and biriyani. Tried Barbeque chicken it was really nice. Owner was very friendly and had a great time. Good place to have food and hangout.

Ordered Chicken Momos(steamed only once), Chicken rice-bowl, Chicken Barbecue western style(must try). Thanks to the chef and owner, wonderful hospitality & explained all recipes in detail. We got complementary lassi and blue tea. 😃

The service offered by owner and chef is really great. They are willing to provide customised food as per preference. Very homely vibe in the cafe. Chilly momos was amazing in the taste.

Wow!!! We ate here 3 days in a row. The food is super good, and the service is wonderful. Ashok, the manager is nice and will find the best food for you. In the photos, you can see the BBQ Chicken with Tahini sauce, and BBQ vegetables. Great food and great price!

If u r searching for good healthy and clean food. Then do visit this place. Owner Mr. Yadav welcomes u with warm smile. He have lot of menu... People eat rice bowl here. We tried Israel's dish shakshuka with bread and chicken burger. Both dishes were amazing and cost is also nominal. Thanks for complementary rose tea.

Amazing spot for dosa and coffee for a good price, owner and staff are also really hospital and the place has a nice homely vibe and cool interior. The owner even offered to show us how to make dosa after our meal! What a place

I was overwhelmed by the taste and quality of the food they served, with minimal use of oil and no unhealthy ingredients. You Gonna love it if you are a true taste lover.

An eclectic little restaurant in Old Manali, Del 37 is definitely a must try Uncle Ashok who runs the place is warm and is always looking to give you the best experience. We were stuck in Manali during the 23 flash floods where the whole of Manali was experiencing power-cuts and no network for days. Uncle had kindly let us eat with promise to pay him later when we reached another city as we were low on cash. We had some barbecue chicken which was beyond words! The chai here is also very good A very cute place. Would 10/10 recommend
