Yama Coffee House was just right, and the huge slice of... More

its an area for budget travellers and so the coffee house is an okay place. Not for dining but for sitting with friends reading or chatting.

This is our favorite coffee house in Leh. Real expresso, great mint tea. Some of the best baked goods anywhere we've visited. We loved the apricot cake and black-and-white cookies. Everyone was really friendly and the setting was brand new and beautiful.

The owner also operates a Trekking business near the coffee house and I can vouch that it's a wonderful place to book a... More
