Kodaikanal Food Guide: 10 Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Kodaikanal
Kodaikanal has an endangered animal called the grizzled giant squirrel. To us, that alone is reason to book a trip ("grizzled giant squirrel" might be the best animal name ever). Perched on the woodsy southern crest of the Palani Hills, nearly 7,000 feet above sea level, this popular lakeside resort town is a magnet for nature lovers. Wander the peaceful slopes, keeping an eye out for birds, exotic flowers and, of course, grizzled giant squirrels.

Good Restaurant, The ambience was good. I recommend you try the ghee rava masala dosa and filter coffee. The staff were friendly. They have two toilets near the hand wash area. A little pricey but food quality was excellent.

Located near junction road. Small in size. Clean and simple décor. Limited Menu but good quantity of food. Delicious food and quick service. We had light dinner here. Credit Cards accepted. I recommend at least 1 meal here on your visit to Kodaikanal.

Nice place to hang out with friends or family, They make decent cheap, fast food style chinese food. Average both in taste and ambience. But they do have a very extensive menu, and their soups are good!
In particular, i liked the honey ginger lemon tea and their golden dragon fuyong was pretty lackluster and tasted like an ordinary omelette.

The warm is the warmth of the people running such an Enterprise. Helping the needy is always a challenge. The shop sells all kinds of handicrafts to raise funds and if you are so inclined, you can pitch in by buying a few things.
But getting back to the cafe, true it has only 2 tables and 6-8 chairs /stools but if you sit down, it seems a lot as you rub shoulders with each other. With light rains, the water mist seems to float on to you, giving a nice romantic touch. You can lean on each other as you watch the flow of people walking by or just read a book.
The food menu is hand written on the black boards and is limited. So we had the club sandwiches that were great, lovely chicken & cheese grilled sandwiches, amazing beef burgers (different preparations from muncheez across the street), and very nice waffles with honey and to top it all, super hot chocolate drink.
I must admit this place is under rated! The quality of food is very good. The service may be slow by city standards but laid back & nice by kodai, as they have limited
staff.
Thoroughly enjoyed the food and the ambience. Shall visit again next time we are in kodai.

First, the place is centrally located. Easy walk from the lake and seven road junction. Coming to the food, I can vouch for the thin crust pizzas, cheese cake, crepe, burgers and rolls. And first try of beef fries. Is a relaxing place with a fire place. Can easily hangout with friends. And the owner is cool.
