Tried this new cafe in Manali and everything was great! Also interacted with the owner who happened to be from my home city as well. We had Pahadi Chicken, Red Sauce Pasta, Chilli Garlic Noodles, Veg Shakshuka and some coffees, all of which was quite tasty. Hope to visit this place again and try out the other items from the menu!

Cozy, pet friendly cafe in Manali. Named after the eponymous Gabbar/ Gabbu, this cafe has a relaxing vibe. Street parking is available nearby, but be aware of the traffic restrictions on the city. Pets can relax and enjoy the pet menu. The human menu also has a good number of options. The staff is friendly and courteous, the service pretty relaxed. All in all, a great place to take your pet or enjoy a quiet coffee in Manali.

This place is a heartfelt tribute to man’s best friend — a dog named Gabbar (Gabbu). Tucked away in Old Manali, it’s a beautifully designed modern café with a fantastic selection of food and beverages. The menu is multi-cuisine, catering generously to both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. With such a wide and thoughtfully curated food menu, you might just find yourself spoiled for choice. The indoor seating is cozy and inviting, with a few outdoor spots as well — all set to the backdrop of great music. We tried the Coffee Mojito and Cranberry Espresso — both unique and refreshing. Cranberry espresso - 7/10 Coffee mojito - 8/10

I’ve tried a lot of food at this cafe and honestly, it’s one of the best experiences ever! One of my absolute favorites is the Veg Falafel – it’s not your regular falafel, it has a unique taste and is super filling! Every dish here has a different twist and is just perfectly done! Also, a big shoutout to the sweet and super helpful owners – they really make the place feel warm and welcoming. And how can I forget Gabbar, the adorable dog – he’s just the best! Highly recommend this place to everyone! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can’t wait to visit again soon!
