We haven’t seen such a nice and hip cafe around whole Baltistan - The Grind Cafe attracted us just going around by car so we decided to stay in the hotel close by. Their Chinese food dishes are really nice, I recommend you to get the fried rice deals, it’s definitely worth the value. From drinks my favourite one was the Mint Margarita or mango milkshake (when there’s a season), I could drink both every day 🧡. But what’s even better then the food is amazing staff, everyone was so nice and friendly. Mr. Saqib gave us valuable information about the situation in the town during a religious event, also tried to help us to maintain the bike rentals… Plus, good working wi-fi at the place. We were really grateful we found the place and I can recommend The Grind Cafe to anyone who is even just stopping in Skardu 😉 We are definitely coming back, thank you for your hospitality.

Modern cosy environment for a comfortable dine in experience. Good for coffee reads.
Staff is super courteous and owner is a very very sweet guy.
However, Food menu requires a great deal of variety and burgers surely need some working too, specially when you're going from Karachi and paying 850 for a chicken burger, your expectations are a little high, which aren't met entirely, taste wise.
The local bakery sweet bun is a bit of a turn off with grilled chicken inside.
Mayo fries lacked Mayo and Mint Mojito was more water and less substance.
But I'd love to visit again and see this place grow. Good spot otherwise!
