    Nice place to have food near McLeodganj main square. Tasty food at affordable rates and very good service are their plus. During my trip to McLeodganj, I had food from here multiple times. I tried noodles, chole bhature, and honey ginger lemon tea. Chole bhature was delicious, and I liked their honey ginger lemon tea very much. The atmosphere is okay, and the service is very good. It's a small place, and they don't have their own parking space.

    IN SHORT : GO and ENJOY, You won't regret going there. Click for details. Let me make things very simple for everyone who is visiting this restraunt and is new to Mcleodganj. Making this review under sub heads: 1.Food - Just perfect, let it be any meal of your day. You will get a lot of variety to choose from. My Favourite: Dinner : Kadhai Paneer+ Naan Breakfast: Paneer Parantha + Chai ( The best in Mcleodganj, very basic but really strong) 2.Ambience: This is my second day and we all are sitting in their couch which is really comfortable and gives you a very homely feeling with the taste of HP. 3.Staff: They are really helpful and joyful. They can help you with your local itinerary. In short: MUST TRY and you might just be visiting this place throughout your trip.

    A clean and cozy Punjabi restauraunt. Staff are friendly and the food is tasty and fresh. I like the saag paneer very much and today I had the Ananda thali which was very affordable and quite a large portion. Thanks!

    This was our second visit to this place. At the end of the day, if you're looking for some good vegetarian food options in Mcleodganj, then this place is the one for you. We tried a Maharaja thali in our dinner here. Was doubting the taste of Sabzi, but it was great. The dish was really wholesome. They had me at their Chapati. They were super soft. The food was really good in compare to the given prices. They also serve good parathas. Will recommend this place for sure.

    Ananda Dhaba in McLeod Ganj is a culinary haven for thukpa, soups, and momos enthusiasts. The flavors are nothing short of delightful, leaving your taste buds in awe. The warmth of the place adds to the overall experience, making it more than just a dining spot. If you crave delicious thukpa and crave-worthy momos, Ananda Dhaba is undoubtedly the go-to place, ensuring a lip-smacking treat for your senses.

    The Ananda Dhaba is exactly that - a dhaba. So, go for a good-value meal in a warm, comfortable indoor space in a central location, close to McLeodganj's main drag. The food, though, is spicy, more suitable for the North Indian palate. I found the vegetable curries, as well as rajmah over-spicy. The dish I really liked, and I think they make it very well, is kheer(sweet rice pudding). I would definitely recommend this, if you're anywhere in the vicinity.

    Delicious food with rich taste. Even 5 stars are less for this Dhaba. Paneer Tikka Masala, Dal Tadka, Rajma, Garlic naan n chapati are must try. Prices are economical n quantity is good also. Must try in McLeodaganj for Indian Food.

    If you want pure vegetarian authentic dhaba food in and around Mcleod Ganj, look no further. Ananda Dhaba on Jogibara Road, right next to Peace Cafe is your answer. Food is amazing, clean and price is super reasonable. You will not be disappointed.

  • 5/5 yael 3 months ago on Google β€’ 13 reviews New
    Loved the punjabi food here. Good portions of each dish. Good paneer dishes, dal makhani, and roti and naan. (Try paneer garlic naan!) There are always customers here, but despite this the service is always fast and they will prepare all the dishes so everything is ready at the same time!

    Good place for having food in Mcleodganj. This is a pure vegetarian restaurant. Went here for lunch and ordered butter chappati, roti , matar panner and masala chai. All were good.

  • 2/5 Narender K. 6 months ago on Google
    Hi Guys, Please do not go as per rating of 4.4. This is the most useless restaurant in mclodganj. Dal makkni is somewhat eatable. Other vegetable preparations are useless and have no taste. You will waste your money and repent on your decision if you still have food here.

  • 5/5 HIMANI S. 3 years ago on Google

    Hated the food. Overpriced according to quantity and quality of food. Ordered Dal fry and plain roti. Dal was too oily and almost tasteless. Won't recommend this to anyone.

  • 5/5 Abhimanyu S. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the best dhaba I have ever came across with. I don't have words regarding the food quality and taste. It's just beyond the expectations. I would recommend it to everyone. I went here back in November last year. I only able to found the photo of Chole bhature only. Otherwise the Thali that I ordered also worth the price.

    We ordered apni thali and one special thali. Food tasted awesome after all the pizzas and low salt food we had had in McLeodganj. We were full for a long time. Small and cozy place. Pure vegetarian restaurant. Only dessert available was gulab jamun but it wasn't good.

    πŸ‘Ž Not Recommended ❌ Space is too Small ❌ Overcharging for Cold Drinks, You can not order for Sprite Bottle, instead of that they will give one glass of Sprite on the same price. ❌ Late Delivery of Refilling orders like Chapati ❌ Too Overpriced and Even the Quality was not good matching the prices. ❌ Staff was not friendly ❌ Place was not Hygienic ❌ Hard to find Parking Spot Somehow, they do not care because they know that they are not going to serve the same customers regularly, so they try to earn more instead of giving quality of experience.
