Tucked above the gurgling Jai Nala, Meraki Café Camping and Cakes feels like Kasol’s best-kept secret: fair-trade beans are slow-roasted in-house, the lemon-drizzled carrot cake stays moist at 5,800 ft, and the 4.8-star buzz comes from trekkers who linger over second refills while paragliders drift past the open terrace.

More information
Where exactly is Meraki Cafe Camping and Cakes located?
The café sits on the Jai Nala Shani Mandir lane in Kasol, Himachal Pradesh 175105, India, a two-minute walk from the main market bridge, so you can smell the freshly ground beans before you even see the signboard.
How can I reserve a table or a camping spot?
Call +91 88054 46649 between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m.; the team will confirm your preferred date, note any dietary preferences, and hold the river-view corner or the campsite patch for you without a deposit.
What makes the coffee here special compared to other cafés in India?
Every single-origin bean is small-batch roasted on-site in a 1 kg drum roaster, then hand-poured using Himalayan spring water, giving you a clean, bright cup that consistently earns the café its 4.8-star rating.
Is the café open year-round and does it offer vegan or gluten-free cakes?
Meraki keeps its wood-fired ovens running from 1 March to 30 November, and the in-house baker turns out vegan chocolate-avocado brownies and gluten-free walnut-honey cakes daily; outside these months, heavy snow blocks the access road and the team heads to Dharamshala for pop-ups.
