Landour is a small cantonment town contiguous to Mussoorie. Landour is best explored on foot. And you would need to fill your belly at regular intervals to get the energy to explore the hill station. Luckily, there are many good restaurants and cafes in Landour. Here is my pick of top places to eat in Landour
Table of Contents
Landour Bakehouse
Landour Bakehouse is the best cafe in Landour for desserts. Its cakes are deliciously yummy and something to die for. Don’t go in there immediately after a meal to just try out a dessert. Instead, leave at least a couple of hours between a meal and visit Landour Bakehouse so that you have space in your belly to try at least a couple of different varieties of desserts. If you are with a large group, you can even share more varieties with each other.
Carrot Cake, Rose and Almond Cake, Croissant, Chocolate Chip Cookie are some of the most loved dishes of Landour Bakehouse. I had ordered a carrot cake with creamy cheese icing, and peanut butter and jelly eclair. The carrot cake was the best among both. It was creamy, soft and had the perfect amount of sugar that left me wanting for more but I had already overeaten by then.

Doma’s Inn Restaurant is the most beautiful and aesthetic of all the restaurants and cafes in Landour. It is also the only Tibetan restaurant in Landour. The restaurant interior is colourfully decorated with old Bollywood and Hindi dubbed foreign movies posters. The Chinese lanterns and dragons hanging on the ceiling adorn the beauty of the restaurant. I had mix veg. Thukpa and it was wonderful. This was the first time I had ever tasted Thukpa and its incredible taste left me wondering why I never tried it before.

The Mudcup Cafe
The Mudcup Cafe is situated in a very quiet location. Since this place is not always swarmed with customers, you can have alone time sitting on the balcony or inside by the window.
