Blink and you will miss place but the crowd outside will tell you that this is a special place. The Chole Puri or Kulcha is to die for. An ode to the street food of India

Such a stunning place!! I came up to the Jhaku temple via the cable car. Found this pretty cafe nestled in the mountains. Reallygood Indian food and pahadi tea.Now the best part:Got chatting with the owner about Shimla etc who later helped me arrange a dinner under the stars with my husband. We ended up staying back at the home stay cottages they have.Quite an experience at a small price!!

Reviewed By Jamie B

We travelled independently ( via Citrus Travel) who arranged this hotel ( and guide) It was our second scheduled stop of our mini ' golden triangle tour' and having stayed at 4 different hotels this was the best. The room was excellent, the staff were great and the selection of food was the best . We had a full menu to choose from unlike the other hotels who provided a buffet service. The food and service at other hotels was for the most part very good but to have an option from a proper menu made the experience that bit better.Dear Guest, thanks for dining with us at Eighteen71. We are delighted that you enjoyed the food and the service. Hope to see you again soon!

Cozy cafe with freshly cooked food, high quality ingredients, great ambiance. Right in the middle of the mall near the Red Fire Trucks. Look up for the blue building with yellow windows :)

We absolutely love this place, been there once in 2016. We had Pasta, Hummus n Pita and Nutella Crepe and we loved it so much that we went looking for this place today after 3 long years. We didn’t remember the name but had an idea of the location ! And here we are ... this time we tried a veg Kathi Roll which was Yum and Nutella Banana Waffle which was super Yum !! The sitting is a bit cramped up still lovely for couples or a group of friends !!Note: the serving size is usually GOOOD here so order wisely!! Coz u won’t like to waste this awesome food !!

Cafe Simla Times

Great food & coffee to keep you going until its time for wine. And if you do lose track of time the music and magical views of the hills are all to blame!

Reviewed By Maanik1991

The place is just above average in actual but since it is the only place on Mall Road in Shimla which gives you the combination of food, alcohol and live singing. Price is on the higher side comparing to the service but is only worth during the evenings not in the day. Hi there, thanks for your visit to the cafe. Glad you liked it! As for the prices, we assure you that we are priced at par with other restaurants on the Mall and in fact for the kind of ambience and quality of food we deliver - we truly offer value for money. Hope you will visit us again and give us a chance to change your perception!
