This is a great cozy and comfortable place run by a local Bhutanese woman and is actually quite popular with the locals for its homemade baked items such as pastries and cakes. There is only a small seating area, but you can choose to sit either outdoors or indoors here. Some of the things to try here are the cheesecake, reported to be extremely light and creamy, and the black forest pastry. Also, you should try the exotic sounding passion fruit ice cream which is homemade. The cafe is more expensive than the ones around the area in Paro, but patrons will swear that the quality justifies it.

This cafe might stand out for you for its blatantly exorbitant prices of garlic naan and other types of Indian bread, but you should not be surprised because the cafe is not meant to be an Indian eatery in the first place. They are a vegan and organic cafe that specializes in continental offerings, and the warm and spacious interiors are really inviting to tourists after a long day in the sun. The rum coffee with cream and the Kahlua coffee are favorites of the regular patrons so make sure to try them. With the great food here, the Mountain Cafe is one of the best cafes in Paro.

7. Paro Pizza

This is a great place to go for a late night dinner with friends if you have had your fair share of the Bhutanese cuisine and are craving some comfort food, aka pizza. Their seafood pizza and also the exotic vegetables pizza is something to kill for, and the place sees quite long queues on busy days. With the low tables and sofas, the place will seem more like a normal Bhutanese restaurant instead of a pizzeria but the pizzas will definitely bring you back to reality. Located in the vicinity of all the other cafes, Paro Pizza is definitely worth a visit.
