Nepali cafe · Grand Rapids

Himalayan warmth, by the slice and the steamer.

A Nepali family cafe and dessert shop on 28th Street — momos, milk tea, custom cakes, and a pastry case meant for lingering.

Dine-in is open. From 8am Tuesday–Saturday, come for coffee, matcha, milk tea, and pastry. Momos and the full board follow later in the day — ask at the counter. Study-friendly, with outlets.
