Café Mocha at Budhanilkantha (yes, you read that right) is a proper, posh coffee shop that has opened its doors in an area where finding freshly ground filter coffee was impossible until now. Located on Budhanilkantha Road (opposite Big Mart), the café serves freshly-brewed coffee along with a variety of other non-alcoholic drinks including but not limited to mint lemonades, flavored lassis, milkshakes and mocktails. A limited option of alcohol is available too.
The tourists visiting the hills of Shivapuri and locals alike had long needed a change in their palates from regular restaurants selling instant coffee and momos. Café Mocha comes as the much-needed upgrade to dining in the Narayanthan/Budhanilkantha area. The regular crowd at Café Mocha all day long proves that.
