People have to visit this place. It’s a good way to support the rich history and help maintain. You may pay more for the food as it goes for helping maintain the monuments.

The cafe is located behind the mangaldas haveli, very pure naturistic and heritage. Food is good but costly like 4-5 star Restro-cafes. Only luxury cafe within the pols

Beautiful cafe in the middle of old city surrounded by havelis. The staff was courteous. It seemed a little expensive but overall experience of being there was worth it. Will definitely try some main course o km my next visit
