Where to Eat in Bundi
Eating out in Bundi is easy to fit around sightseeing, as the town is small and most restaurants sit close to the palace, Nawal Sagar and Sadar Bazaar. You can walk from the stepwells to lunch in a few minutes.
For local food, look for a Rajasthani thali or dal baati churma at places like Hadoti Restaurant. For a slower meal with a view, the rooftop cafés near Nawal Sagar and Sadar Bazaar look out over the old town towards the palace.
