Rumours — Restaurant in Uttarakhand

I recently visited Rumours Café for the very first time, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. I had heard about this place from a few people and was curious to check it out, but what I found did not meet even the basic expectations of a café.

As soon as I entered, the first thing I noticed was that most of the tables were either broken or in very poor condition. This immediately gave the place an unwelcoming and neglected feel. A café is supposed to be a comfortable spot where people can sit, relax, and enjoy their time, but broken furniture really puts off the whole vibe.

To make matters worse, there was no electricity during my visit. A café without proper lighting or power feels incomplete and unprofessional. I understand that power cuts can happen anywhere, but a reputed café should have some arrangement like backup lights or a generator to make sure customers are not left in complete inconvenience.

Another thing that stood out was the lack of staff. There was only one person managing the entire place, which made it look understaffed and unorganized. Because of all these issues, I decided not to order anything and left soon after.

I genuinely hope the management takes these concerns seriously. The café has potential, but without proper maintenance, sufficient staff, and basic facilities like electricity, it fails to deliver even the minimum experience. Until improvements are made, I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a decent...

Tucked away on the 5th floor of a building in Jakhan, Roumours offers a peaceful dining experience with a breathtaking view of Mussoorie and the surrounding mountains. Though the decor leans more towards a discotheque vibe—with massive speakers and a spacious DJ area—the restaurant provides both indoor and outdoor seating options.

During our late lunch visit on a quiet Thursday at 4 PM, we had the place to ourselves. The staff, though welcoming and helpful, lacked formal hospitality training, which was evident in their limited knowledge of the menu. However, their warmth and willingness to assist made up for it.

The real star of the experience was Executive Chef Bhupinder Singh Rawat, who personally recommended dishes and ensured that everything served was top-notch in presentation and flavor. We started with Ryu-mer Wild Mushroom Soup and Roasted Tomato and Basil Soup, both of which were well-received. The Lamb Kibben was a standout dish—highly recommended. Other highlights included the Mushroom Caps and Ratan Manjusha (Kofta), each offering a delightful blend of flavors. The Pesto Pasta, customized to our preference, was another winner. The real standout was Char Grilled Bhatti Khas Murg with Corn, spinach and herb rice mushroom sauce.

Roumours delivered an exceptional culinary experience. If you’re looking for great food with a view, this place is definitely...

A Culinary Gem – An Unforgettable Dining Experience with panoramic view

From the moment we walked into Rumours, we knew we were in for something special. The warm ambiance, tasteful décor, and welcoming staff set the stage for what turned out to be an unforgettable dining experience.

The menu offered a perfect balance of creativity and classic flavors, showcasing fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every dish was a masterpiece—beautifully plated and bursting with flavor. The Paneer Masala was simply divine, with a perfect blend of textures and seasonings. The Dal Makhni was equally outstanding, leaving us wanting more. Our 4 year old also relished the flavours.

Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the menu, offering great recommendations that perfectly suited our tastes. The restaurant owner adds a warm, personal touch, making every guest feel welcome and valued.

To top it off, the dessert selection was nothing short of extraordinary. The bownie was a delightful ending to an already fantastic meal.

The best part was everything including brownie was house-made and locally crafted.

Whether you're looking for a romantic date night, a special celebration, or just an incredible meal, Rumours is the place to go. We can't wait to return and explore more of their delicious offerings! Highly...
