Where to Eat in
Vrindavan
You
can purchase a good selection of maha-prasada in the temple room of
the Krishna Balarama Temple after aratis. They have rice, subji, puris,
sweets, pakoras and other items. At 4.30 pm (4 pm in the winter) there
is a good selection of special cakes at the maha-prasada booth. During
festival times you can get special cakes and pies at the maha-prasada
booth in the morning around 8 am. The cakes here are excellent and
are recommended. The prasada from here is good tasting, a good value
and purifying.
There is a booth just to the left of the ISKCON Temple gate that serves
pizza and other snacks.
MVT has an excellent A/C restaurant on the top floor with a good restaurant
and first-class food. It has good pizza (small Rs 60 and large Rs
100), Indian and Continental food. The pizzas come with various topping
such as olives, eggplant and pineapple. There are thalis (Rs 80),
spaghetti, baked potatoes with cheese, chow mien, and good salads.
There are deserts including great pies and one of the main highlights
of the place, a good selection of Baskins and Robbins ice cream. The
water served is highly purified and the place is very clean. It is
highly recommended, but it is not cheap. It has good, pleasant service
and atmosphere. Not to be missed.
ISKCON Guest House has a good selection of reasonably priced items
that include a thali for Rs 50. Some items on the menu are fried rice,
dhal fried, mixed vegetable, gobhi-alu, chips (French fries) and the
cheese (panir) preparation.
You can get cold drinks and many other items across the street from
the ISKCON Temple at Biharilals. It is also a good general store.
You can also get ice cream at this shop. This place is also a good
general store where you can get butter, apple juice and many other
items. In front of Biharilals is a street stand that sells very good
hot ginger and lemon tea.
There are a few good fruit and vegetable stands across the street
from the ISKCON Temple. They are conveniently located, but they usually
charge around 25% more than what you pay for the same items downtown.
They may also overcharge you and have a problem adding correctly (always
in their favor), so it is a good idea to carefully add up the bill
yourself.
At the ISKCON temple you can eat temple prasada breakfast (Rs 15)
and dinner (Rs 25). Breakfast is at 9 am and dinner is at 4 pm on
the Kedia Land. To get to the Kedia Land, you exit out the door in
the wall of the enclosure surrounding the temple. This door is behind
the temple to the right, if you are facing the main entrance of the
temple.
There is a good Dhaba Stand near the Govindaji temple. They serve
good dal fry and rotis (Rs 2) and many other items to order. This
place is across the street from the road that goes to the 64 Samadhis
on the main street (see Gopiswara temple map). It is run by brahmanas
connected to the Radha Damodara temple.
