The restaurant is on 3 floors, rooftop gets nice sun in winter, in summer one floor has aircon (and warmer in winter for eating at night) Service is good, food freshly made and tasty. Are there twice both times really good. Also serve beer.
This is just a great little spot above the market lane near the train station. I stepped out of my normal curry lunch menu and got an "Israeli Lunch" which had some falafel, some hummus, veggies and I ordered a bowl of fruit. Had two beers, given with a chilled mug, and was very happy. No weird stomach rumblings after eating the fruits and veggies. If you need to catch and early train stay in this neighborhood, which has a great local feel and where you are not hassled and hustled as much as in other parts of Delhi. Have a nice walk about, especially down the alleyways where there are veggies for sale, then pop into this restaurant for some solid food and a cold beer if you like.
Bistro 55 – A Hidden Gem Above the Buzz of Paharganj Tucked away above the lively chaos of Main Bazar Road, Bistro 55 offers a quiet retreat in the heart of Paharganj – a favorite haunt for tourists. The atmosphere is relaxed, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring Delhi’s vibrant streets. The menu is extensive and clearly designed with international travelers in mind, offering a welcome break from the usual fare. I opted for the spaghetti with Nepalese-style sauce and fried chicken – a delicious and satisfying change from the traditional Indian dishes I’d been eating daily. The beer here is served ice-cold, which is exactly what you need after braving the Delhi heat. Prices are fair and reasonable, especially considering the quality and portion sizes. Overall, Bistro 55 is a great spot for travelers looking for a peaceful atmosphere, diverse menu, and refreshing drinks right in the heart of the action.
