Little Buddha Cafe
लिटिल बुद्धा कैफ़े
The most famous treehouse-style cafe next to Lakshman Jhula, featuring Ganges views and international vegetarian dishes.
Located near Lakshman Jhula, this treehouse-style cafe with Bohemian vibes and Ganges views is widely considered the most famous cafe in Rishikesh. The menu spans Indian, Italian, Israeli, Mexican, and Tibetan vegetarian dishes, with popular items including white sauce pasta, hummus, falafel platters, Nutella pancakes, and milkshakes. Tables with river views are limited, and wait times can be long during peak hours; some reviews note slow service and average food. It is only accessible via stairs, and nearby parking is very limited, so walking and visiting during off-peak hours is recommended. Expect to spend around ₹200–400 per person.
