Khaapu's Kitchen

Himanshu was a fantastic server at cafe , he was very knowledgeable about menus ... He even offered us a cookie to try and we loved it... This property is located after Malana village at the starting point ... It is worth while to stay if you plan to chill and Trek nearby valley for few days they charge very less in stay but food around Malana is costly so try to get Package deals it will cost you somewhat 1000rs per day with breakfast dinner and tea 3 times ... "Buchi " ( heartbroken ) and "Bella" ( who broke his heart ) 2 cute pets just opposite in character one need heat another need cold .. management by "Puja " awesome .... The best season to go is from August to December... Green will be at it peak ... They even take you for Trek to waterfall nearby , Chandra khani summit ... *****Note :- if you have problem carrying your luggage to up hill don't worry they have a SPAN which is 100 rs per span charge you can drop your luggage at span and Trek up to Malana while your will reach up in span on your way to khaapus kitchen and they will take all your luggage from their to kitchen well you can call them to Malana gate too for guidance.. you will get span facilities 300mtr before Malana gate .. and don't worry MALANI DON'T TOUCH ANY OUTSIDER OR THEIR LUGGAGE SO IT'S completely safe ... They are richer than any of us they don't need to steal anything from ur luggages and span is handled by malani so chill. ... Cafe staffs or owners can be outsider in Malana ... But it's completely safe at KHAAPUS KITCHEN

I stayed really nice room with amazing mountain view Guys are working there who are really nice, peace and funny Definitely worth it to go if you come to Malana

Utterly Peaceful and food was absolutely amazing. P.S- People from North Indian plains, this place is a blessing considering the quality of food seems as if you are eating from fresh produce from Punjab and Haryana. Dharmender ji (Panditji)and Saurabh ji are an absolute delight of a hosts.

You will feel at home after going there and you will not miss your home. The owners there also support us sometimes and stand before our time for even the smallest things. The food is also as good as home. I really Love the owner

nice owner with support staff and mainly the view is outstanding that no other cafe will give you , you must have to visit this place

This is a great place to stay. I feel fortunate for changing my itinerary in the last minute and heading to malana. Vibes are great, people are very friendly. It’s a tiny pretty space on a cliff with two jolly doggies. Host’s hospitality is great, she spreads such a good vibe just with her eyes and smile. One can get many varieties of food within no time. Couple of shops are also available down the hill. Ambience is cool and pleasant. Would definitely visit again on a special purpose.
