Rocky's Café has perhaps the best valley views in Old Manali. Located at the absolute end of Manu Temple Road, a good 20 minute upward climb from the Old Manali Bridge, it can take a longer trudge on tricky ice in winters. But the view that awaits the visitor is astounding. In winters snow-covered apple orchards as far as the eye can see, the highway to Atal Tunnel skirting the Beas, and the scenic village of Vashisht on the mountains on the other side of the valley. It's a place which invites one to linger, over coffee or alcoholic drinks(albeit pricey). The coffee I ordered, a cappuccino was anything but, a watery milk concoction with barely a hint of coffee.

Loved the vibe of the place, the food, ambience, music, gentry felt just great place to sit and spend time with friends, having lip smacking food.

The spot is situated 4 km from the Old Manali Bridge, and is a fine climb almost all the time. But believe me, it'd be totally worth it. As the entry into it just sets your mood right.

Cleanliness is on the spot, and services of meals is also good (gets affected during rush hours of course). The staff is polite, well behaved and have good knowledge of the menu, what's there and what's not available.

There is okay okay space for parking bikes. 2 wheeler can reach this spot, and a 4*4 can also reach the place if the rider is experienced.

Food quality and price (for most dishes) was at par with each other. I tried Cheese toast and coffee at this place. Hope this review helps you make a better, informed...
