The place is very nice & comfortable. The owners are also very friendly with their customers. Food was super tasty. They also have added new dishes to their menu. Would definitely recommend to others. This place is a must visit for Maggie lovers, they have different varieties of Maggie dishes The cafe has been relocated to a new place, exactly opposite of Polar bear. They also have added some new dishes & combos to their menu. Food also tastes very good, fried chicken was super tasty & worth the price & Oyster Chicken was also very tasty & as usual how can we miss the Ghee Roast Maggie, it was also tasty. Would definitely come again to this place

My sister recommended this place and it was worth it. We were group of 5 we tried Plain Ghee Roast Maggie, Parota & Paneer butter Masala Combo and Paneer Roll. All were good, ghee roast Maggie was the best out of 3. I would love to try other dish on my visit next time. If you’re in Manipal or Udupi visit this place, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing food they have got. The Chicken Ghee Roast maggi is amazing. The peach Iced Tea is very refreshing and too good. The Butter chicken rice is very nice. The service was fast and pricing is reasonable.

Maggie chicken ghee roast is something that caught my attention as it was something very unique and I had never seen this dish before. Honestly this tasted good but the only issue was that there wasn’t enough chicken in it, while having this dish I found barely 3 pieces of chicken in it. But those three pieces were really small, they honestly need to add more pieces in it. Cold coffee on the other hand was worth for its price, it had the perfect balance of flavour to it.

Had visited Nayak’s Cafe recently. We ordered Paneer Peri Peri Sandwich, Chicken Ghee Roast Sandwich, Chicken Ghee Roast Maggie, Veggie Masala Maggie, Cold Coffee & Ice Tea and everything was too good!! Felt like homely cooked food. Quality was top notch. Plus the flavours were excellent. Even we took takeaway which is Paneer Butter Garlic which was not on the menu. But since we had requested, they made it and my night cravings were totally satisfied. It was amazing!! Highly recommended for Maggie Lovers!! Do check out the place guys!!!
