The place truly justifies the name- café fiction. It is straight out of pages that describes a small café with some awesome collection of books. This place in gangtok will give you some romance in a dull day. However, I have never heard of a faded day in Gangtok.
Thier ground floor has café where you can order and dine, with a dash of rustic vibe.
On the first floor is a bookshop, where you can also sit and work. What I enjoyed the most here is the backyard of cafe. there is a narrow water fall and they have arranged a few furniture for people to work, chill, and chat. Isn't it a dream to work amid the sound of waterfall and chirping bird 🐦?
The owner was generous enough to share the wi-fi password and recommend some books.
I didn't find much food option from the menu, may be it was not my day. Also, it was easy to locate. Had there be more tables in the backyard, would have been nicer.
Very unique experience, with homely vibes and a bookstore upstairs. The food was great and the host Raman was very friendly.
P.S. If you want baked goods, go a little later in the day.
The breakfasts here were amazing! The bacon and eggs were so flavorful. I don’t like bacon or sausage but unlike the crispy, crunchy flavorless bacon in America this was juicy, flavorful and chewy. The sausage was dense, flavorful and not fatty. The sunny side eggs were delicious with toast. The strawberry milkshakes and coffee were the best in any of the four Gangtok cafes we tried. The momo’s were unique and delicious. The ambience is like a European cafe with a slide through door for the entrees. We enjoyed the books as we ate and loved the selection of English hardcover books for my grandchildren. Book prices are cheaper than the US. The lady in the bookshop was chatty and engaging. In a class of its own. Not a big dessert selection so come for the food and drinks.
Food and ambience were great. There's a bookstore upstairs (hence the name) and you can spend some time there while they make the food. It's a bit out of the way from m g marg but worth the walk if you are willing to make it.
It's a beautiful cafe where you can spend your day reading books outdoor and indoor both. Cafe has limited food options but whatever they make is absolutely authentic! This conceptual cafe will make you come again and again if you love spending time in quaint places.
Their home roasted coffee and pancakes are good. This place has lot of books of all kind, check pics... Awesome place to spend time in peace.
Best place on earth if you love books, good conversations about books and some nice coffee and snack! Has a bookstore upstairs so you know it's a win
Food is good, but most of the items on menu are not available. Otherwise an incredible place to sit, work and read
The food was decent, but it didn't justify it's pricing. The cafe was a little small but cosy nonetheless
Good food. The manager was courteous, considerate and all smiles. The best part of the cafe is the bookstore. By far the best book collection and you may sit in one place and read endlessly. Crosswords should learn from this place.
I tried lemon ginger honey tea with momos. One of the best mono that I found. Combined with the Rachna book store it was a great experience.
Lovely cafe below Rachna Books, a perfect place to sip your coffee after your book haul.
Hats off to the owner Raman Shrestha, who is a very hands on person, with his cafe, book store and air b n b rooms business
Awesome place with a great collection of books. Mr Raman the owner is a very friendly and down to earth person. A must visit place
Quaint little cafe with artsy books and nice vibe and deco! Must try veg momo with spicy powder!
Undoubtedly best place for Coffee lovers @Gangtok
The best coffee in this hemisphere. Savouries and condiments. The adjacent bookstore/ library is also the best in all of Gangtok.
Nice place for coffee and books. Owner runs a book club
