Famous old hotel …!
A must visit hotel in shivmogga for breakfast.
Masala dosa was too good and crispy, a finger licking taste. U must try every item like idli, open dose, mandakki, paddu, end up with coffee.

If you're looking for a slice of history and a taste of authentic South Indian Dish in Shivamogga, then look no further than the oldest hotel in town. This charming establishment exudes old-world charm and provides a glimpse into a bygone era. The hotel has retained much of its original character, and the decor is a mix of vintage and contemporary styles. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and always ready to assist with any request.
The star of the show, however, is undoubtedly the food. The Masala Dose is, without a doubt, the best I've tasted in a long time. It is crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and filled with a spicy and flavorful potato mixture. The chutneys and sambar served alongside are the perfect accompaniment, and I found myself unable to resist a second serving.
Equally impressive was the Paddu, which is a lesser-known dish but equally delicious. These bite-sized dumplings are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a delectable blend of spices and vegetables. I could have easily made a meal out of these alone.
Overall, the oldest hotel in town is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience a slice of history and enjoy some truly outstanding South Indian Food. The Masala Dose and Paddu are not to be missed, and I can't wait to return and try some of the other dishes on the menu.
Meenakshi bhavan is one of the best.
It has maintained its authenticity and value.
Only cash/-
Felt like a good old eatery, entry space is so elegant and aesthetic. They served the best Masala Dosa, avalakki was also delicious. Coffee was ok. Loved the ambience of this place.
Old ambience 100 years old hotel. Amazing food. Service is very fast must try Masala dosa.
Please note they don't accept UpI. Please carry cash or card with you 🙏
After a tiresome journey from Harihar, enjoyed excellent dinner of Dosa, Coconut oil Paddu & Great kashaya.
One small request though would be an English board which could help non native to identify hotel properly as we had to search around to identify the place

No word for taste of food it's just woww. Must try masala dosa,medu vada, open dosa, rava idli and coffee. Masala dosa size is small but the taste 💯. Medu vada is crispiest. And the main reason for which I ordered idli is their SAMBAR. Never tasted such sambar till now.They have upstairs where we can enjoy the food in beautiful aesthetic location. But they don't give service to all tables all the time most of the tables will have no service boards. One thing I must tell is their service is really bad I don't know whether it happened only with us or same for everyone but one off their waiter never attended us to take orders and we have been there for continues 4-5 days and every time we have to call him to take orders felt really bad about this and thought of never visiting again because of this reason but their food tastes the bestttttt.
They don't have much options of food only few breakfast foods and thali. Price is average. They charge extra 5% for parcels.
NOTE: THEY DON'T ACCEPT UPI. ONLY CASH OR CARDS ARE ACCEPTED.
Visited recently during trip to sagar (Shimoga district ) we were there at lunch time so couldn’t taste their masala dosa . We had veg thali cost around ₹100 , meals was good . Restaurant has good seating and service person was very courteous.
Five star rated and well deserved.
Be prepared to wait for few mins as it’s always crowded.
We went at 9am and idly was out of stock.
Had other items as shown in pics and all food items were awesome.
Sambar and chutney reminds of typical south bangalore restaurants.
Highly recommended
Good old and beautiful atmosphere.
Prices are moderate.
Taste is very delicious. Must try is paddu. Bisebele bath
As mentioned in most of the reviews, the idli Vada, Paddu, Masala Dosa and Avalakki were awesome.... To top it off the special coffee was truly special!!!
UPI payment is not available. It's either cash or card payment.
One of the oldest hotel of Shivamogga
Still maintaining that authentic taste
Worth visiting
They only accept Cash or Card and no Online payment
A very old restaurant to dine it. Ambiance too looks like old one. A very peaceful place with classical music. It opens at 7.30am. Service is really good and quick. We ordered paddu, masala dosa and awlaki. Awlaki was so different in taste. It was little sweet. You can park the car by road side. It was worth for money. They prepared paddu in coconut oil.
Food 5/5
Taste 5/5
Service 5/5
If you are looking for old and good hotels go for it.
