If you find yourself wandering the vibrant streets of Kathmandu, a visit to Cosmo De Cafe Restaurant on Gangalal Marg is an experience you won't want to miss. Nestled in the heart of the city, this charming cafe offers more than just a meal; it provides a serene escape with a breathtaking view of Durbar Square.

The menu is a delightful exploration of Nepali cuisine, with highlights including the ever-popular momos. These steamed dumplings are not just a dish; they're a culinary experience that embodies the spirit of Kathmandu.

Patrons like Nicky Jones have noted the excellent service and scrumptious food at great prices, making it a beloved spot for both tourists and locals alike.

The relaxed ambiance, combined with delightful offerings, makes it a lovely choice for those looking to unwind after a day of exploring.

While some reviews suggest improvements to the rooftop seating arrangements—like that from Kabita Kunwar—it's important to remember that the charm of this hidden gem lies in its authenticity and laid-back vibe. Whether you're a solo traveler seeking a quiet respite or a couple looking for a romantic dining experience with a view, Cosmo De Cafe caters to all.

If you’re passing through Kathmandu, make sure Cosmo De Cafe Restaurant is on your itinerary. Delicious food, friendly service, and a delightful rooftop setting make it more than just a meal—it's an essential part of your Kathmandu adventure.

We’ve spent the morning walking the streets of old Kathmandu......refuelling with mo-mos(Glorious!) and beer (7% Nepali Ice....May just be the making of my haggling skills for this afternoon’s shopping excursion). This is a quiet rooftop (mid-week morning) with a great view of Durbar Square, excellent service and scrumptious food at a great price.

A regular place to hang out but would be better if they could work on the roof top sitting interior and few other arrangements.
