the johnson's cafe

pathetic service careless response, no one to even respond to order food. this place is overrated. much better restaurants available nearby.

no doubt that the soup was amazing as usual, having said that one of the worst experiences when eating pizza as it was totally tasteless and bland. when we told the same to the server both of them told us that they dont add salt to pizza while cooking and serve it on the table ... i expected some quality food from this place and was not expecting this kind of response. inr 450 for this was totally waste of money and moreover the experience i had to face.. pizza was so bad that i had to get it packed and then throw it away in trash later on .
would think twice now before visiting this place again

visited the place on wednesday evening. love music made our outing perfect. they also had happy hours till 8 pm. ambiance is awesome. classy ambiance. service is cordial. french fries are awesome. chardonnay wine added the fun in enjoying live music.

this cosy café has beautiful wooden interiors, complemented by alfresco seating arrangement amidst the lush lawns of the johnson hotel. equally popular as a breakfast joint and a party hub, the café is frequented even by visitors who aren’t staying at the hotel. if you’re planning a dinner here, try and grab a table at the café’s terrace under the star-lit sky.

we visited manali for the first time and bored of our hotel food wanted to try something different. we finally landed at this place and ordered a farmer maker 🍕, oven baked trout and ultimate veggie 🍔. all of them tasted really good and was quite filling. the ambience is lively and fun.

glad we had some good and unique food.

for these 3 items it costed us 2k which is on a higher side. but i guess worth the yummy food and ambience.

don’t even think, contemplate or doubt visiting. order the wood fired pizza, any variety is great. but the feta cheese one cosmic karma is the best. undoubtedly one of the best pizza places in the country. other items such as pasta and pancakes are also great but the pizza is miles ahead.

ask for the waiter rajeev, stay away from the waiter roshan who is a rude and growling man.

the ambience of the place is really good. it is one of the famous cafe's in manali. it is a bit expensive cafe as compared to other cafes.but it is worth a visit.

ambience is good. taste is just ok. prices are reasonable. we requested whether they can arrange candle light dinner. they denied. i tried crispy fried chicken and pasta. didn't like the chicken. pasta is ok. i just liked the creamy chicken soup here.

specially go this place every time i visit manali especially for its fresh trout.its fresh & cooked beautifully.the ambience is soothing & the staff is friendly.

manali and the johnson's cafe go hand in hand. i clearly remember having the best time with my friends when i had last visited the place which was around 8 years back. visiting the cafe just recently was a trip down the memory lane. the place felt same and the food even better. i find the johnson's cafe a perfect hangout spot to chill with family and friends. pick anything from their menu and am sure you won't be disappointed. however, wood fired pizzas and burgers are a must must try here.
.
being in manali for few hours after humpta pass trek meant going for a good and long shower (effects of not having bath for 5 days🤭) and binge eating at the johnson's cafe.😝
.
ordered my all time favorite chicken tikka pizza and chili chicken. wanted to treat my palate with spicy and real food.🤤🤤 pizza was crispy, wood fired thin crust with perfect flavors. chili chicken was tender and cooked to perfection with chinese sauces.😍

very pathetic experience

went there last month ...ordered the veg soup they have..it was great and i was very impressed. so we took a gamble an decided to have our dinner there. to our bad luck all the dishes i ordered from the vegetarian menu ie white sauce pasta, a veg pizza and noodles were below standard products. i am a vegetarian so i can only tell about the veg food. i hope you guys take this as an advice and will up your veg food game. ps the pizza was a paneer something pizza...and the cottage cheese was old and hard.

what an amazing place in manali. the ambience, the look and feel of the place is just amazing. the food is nothing less. the pizza, pasta, cold coffee, the indian food - everything top class. please visit this place. i am excited to go again.

one of the most famous and expensive cafe in manali.
located very near mall road towards old manali.

cafe is build beautifully. food is very tasty.
we tried masala paneer steak.

there is bonfire also on most evening with live music.

a nice place to chill around and go out for a date with your loved one. beautiful flowery garden and view of hills in the background adds a lot of romance to the place.

food is not amazing as expected. but good enough to have a small bite and have a long chat.

try hot chocolate for sure👍🏼
