The ambience is very nice...The only issue is that it is a little cramped for space & the washroom(for Gents) is an issue as well!But people may wonder why i am still rating it as a 5 star!
The reason is simple: FOOD!I have tried the fish fingers,Dry chilly chicken, Smoked Pork(The star of the show) & Its Non veg Hakka Noodles(both chicken and pork).Each of these tasted really well.The waiters are very professional and know their job well.And if you are a foodie (which i bet you are as you are going through the reviews to pick a food joint!) this is a must try.The price is little on the higher side.But they dont compromise on the quality of food.

Hands down One of the best cafes' i have visited anywhere in India, in terms of food, service, ambience, music et all.. Had a great experince with friends. And since i am not from guwahati, but i would love to visit this place again whenever i am in the city. Music was subtle and good to the ears. The cherry-cheese-pineapple was the star of the dishes we ordered, the pork with bamboo shoot was amazing as well. Keep it up guys, cheers!

Overall it's good but the items are too costly. One Corona which cost RS 200 in a wine shop there it cost Rs400 or 420 which is double the price. That's not good.

One of the oldest Cafe in Guwahati.
Awesome memories starting from School Days Hangouts, College Vacation Get-togethers, Office Colleagues Gossips, With Special Friends.

This is the only place in Guwahati which have never lost its sheen though the entire Guwahati has changed around it. It is an epitome of how a joint/cafe can camouflage without changing the basic structure/theme while the city undergoes thru the different stages of development.

Every Guwahatian like me feels nostalgic whenever he/she visits Cafe Hendrix because of the numerous memorable stories attached to it. Be it the school/college/tution bunks. (I guess you got the context)

Many of us like me must have broken their Alcohol Virginity here.

Their Music, Life Performance, Food (especially Pork), Beer are the inseparable string attached to Cafe Hendrix.

All the best to Cafe Hendrix Team and thanks for providing the unforgettable memories to all the Guwahatian out there.

Having read rave reviews, visited the cafe during my recent visit to Guwahati. I am surely going here next time. Good food, good music, nice ambience, courteous staff. Loved the complementary sprout salad. We ordered fish fingers, which turned out to be yum. The place is worth every penny.
However, we had a bit difficulty finding the place, even while standing bang opposite Pantaloons. They can have a larger sign-board on the main street.

Three floors and each has ita own ambience. Although the most preferred is the top floor. Apart from good food the place has good music, projector tv show and all you want to have for a good meal. Lunch is preferred for meals, while night is crowded

I have been there twice and it was recommended by a colleague and a friend as well. I was not dissapointed being there. Enjoyed live music with beer. Only issue I have was that most of the beers given in the menu are not available and the price is in higher side. #cafehendrix

One of the oldest cafes in town. The best place to spend weekends on. I visited on a Sunday with my friends. The gig takes place on the top floor and they have a great lineup. The staff and everyone are friendly. Food is good. We ordered a dragon mushroom and a pork dry fry. For beverages we ordered Simba beers, one if 6 was 9 and an Italian smooch. It tasted decent.

I wasn't quite sure.. if I'll like this place or not.. but to my surprise.. it was quite good.. one of the oldest places here.. food is good.. ambience is good.. service is a bit slow.. plus another thing that I noticed was that there was a concept of certain customers getting to smoke in the same place that they are sitting.. while the other customers had to go all the way till the smoking area to grab a smoke.. it was a bit confusing to me! Why the difference?? πŸ™„

I'm been a regular visitor of this place. So, i have how the prices have changed in recent years. The Food they serve is Fine. Beer is quite expensive and they also donot have much option available. Staff is good which adds a plus point. And they too have weekly performances. This is one of very first Pubs of Guwahati (we say that) and once it was very popular for youngsters. The location also attracts many people. The only reason im giving 3.5 is because of the prices. But anyway its very Good.

ITS TOO NOISY.....can even hear what the other person sitting next to me is saying....πŸ˜‚. Even if I tell the waiter to lower the volume...he won't do it. It's not that I don't listen to hard rock vintage songs...but you can't listen to those songs all the time ....sometimes while having drinks soft and easy going songs are also preferred... Otherwise everything else is fine in this place....food is awesome.

It's a good little 3 storied pub/restaurant just opposite to Pantaloons. Loud music and blue neon lighting are the first things you'd notice upon entering. Drinks can be a bit pricey but not by much. The pub also hosts live gigs from local bands and the performance is on the 3rd floor and on days during live gigs theres a surcharge on the menu and you'll have to pay it regardless of whether or not you sit on the ground or the first floor and can't see the live performance. Which is kinda weird.

It's a nice spacious place to hang out and take some time off over a drink. Although the cocktails they serve back there are a little too sweet for my taste. And they have also increased the rates. The food isn't anything extraordinarily delectable but it's not all bad. We ordered dry chicken schezwan and chilli garlic Noodles. They are generous so far as servings are concerned and the service was quick. The dark ambience with subtle lightings was something I personally found a delight. On the comparison scale, it's a cheaper option than most "hip places" and that's never a bad thing. Cheers!

The place is gud for couples n young grps. . .the place has a two sections,: one where no alcohol is served, n another one with the bar n live music bands playing...the interior is dark n has jus dim lights, so it gvs some romantic vibes. The place has separate smoking zone.
Coming to the food, i orderd fish finger, schzwn fried rice, n chickn manchurian.

The fish fingers were a delight. ...however, the fried rice n the chkn manchurian was below average, ... Too spicy.... The fried rice was made in indian style adding indian spices. .so its a total turnoff...

Finger foods r gud but main course is not upto the mark. .the price is high compared to the quality of the food.
The staff was gud n behaved well.

They say old is gold and this saying goes perfectly with this place. Being one of the oldest joint in Guwahati it still has the finest food, staff, music and ambience. My personal favourite is this oriental section in the menu. And their Chilli Chicken dry and Chilli fish dry are to die for. Must try!!!

Affordable menu...Had the chicken schezwan as the starter with some beer...for the price we paid, it was a good dish..well presented dish...but my issue is with the beer, i dont understand, if you dont have the beers, why do you have to list down so many of them in the menu.. didn't have any choice other than Kingfisher...and second issue is the extra loud music in the bar (you literally can't hear what the other person sitting next to you is saying)...otherwise, it's a good place to hangout with friends.

It's a very loud place.It has continued to be everyone's favourite. The cafe is set up with some groovy interiors and the photos of Jimi Hendrix is another add on to their interiors.Following the guitarist theme ,they prefer designing the ambience that way.It's d best place to go and have a drink with a big group and also enjoy some music.It also has a restaurant downstairs where they don't serve liquor or allow u to light a cigar making one part of d population enjoy the charisma of the cafe .

It's been there for a long time now...food is good, good to spend some time with few friends over a beer!

Food- most of the food items are good. Serves pork dishes. Do try smoked pork fry with dry shredded bamboo shoots. Chicken n mutton items r good too. Price is on the high average side.
Bar menu is good...but they almost always run short of good beers. Price is on little higher side.

Ambience - it's bit dark inside. It becomes stuffy when it's crowded.. n when people r smoking... decorations is average.

Service - average.

N.B.- they play some live bands on weekends.. they charge extra on drinks those days...gets little noisy n crowded too. May enjoy it with friends. But better to avoid if u want to eat nicely n relax over a drink.

The place near to Shillong restaurant is good for alcohol lovers and some foodies as well. Although they will be asking for your id as age proof before presenting any alcoholic beverages.
Since i don't drink let me.give the food details here.
Had the chilly chicken, fish fingers, chicken dry.
The taste was good. You can give a try out here. Tje menu has some wide offerings as well.
The Ambiance is lively and also one can have a good time with friends over here. Plus at times live screenings of some matches were also done.
The 2 and 4 wheelers will be a bir difficult to park in outside.

I came here yesterday to watch the India vs Pak cricket match with my friends. We drank few beers while one of my friends ordered a cold coffee too. We also ordered a portion masala peanut, potato fingers and smoked pork with bamboo shoot. Cold coffee was average but overall I was really happy with the food and the service was decent too. The items in the menu are well priced and you get great value for money here. The ambience is quieter than a usual bar/restaurant which is great! If I were to watch a game with my friends over few beers and decent food, this would be my preferred place.

Lunch on a working day. We were the only customers. Out of the 15 varieties of beer on the menu, only three were available. Fish & chips were brilliant. Chowmein was tasty though a bit oily. This would be a happening place in the evening with live music. Hendrix-ness of the place is evident though a variety of music was played. There is a 20% markup when gigs are playing and this has been advertised everywhere. Good place except that the entry is rather narrow and low roof may make some people claustrophobic. Hope they have a functional fire escape from both the floors.
