1. Cafe de Patan, Mangal Bazaar:
Consistently good food plus great Newari dinner specials on weekends, phenomenal lassis, courtyard and roof terrace seating.
2. Cafe Pagode, northeast corner of Durbar Square:
The usual Durbar Square overlook: the sunny rooftop terrace is literally a tourist trap, but understandably so.
3. Cafe de Temple, north side of Durbar Square:
All-rounder menu, featuring very good Indian food. Head for the roof for great views.
3. Third World Restaurant, west side of Durbar Square:
Superb food and the best views of Durbar Square. Somewhat pricey, but worth it.
4. Woody's Pumpernickel Bakery, Jawalakhel Chowk:
Passable sandwiches, croissants and cakes.
