Nirvana Cafe

We had the best lunch view from here, sound of sea and great food. The white sauce pasta was cheesy and so good! We could've sat there all day as they were playing great music too.

Just want to sit peacefully and enjoy a meal with the sound of nature. This place ain’t that one. Westerns tourists with their ghastly techno music. Killed it again. Next beach please.

Very bad food, bad staff. Veg food ordered was served non veg. Worst experience ever. Staff was fighting with everyone

Very bad experience in this cafe because they are giving high priority to other country people, it's better to avoid and choose other place to stay.

Stayed here 3 nights and had a really great time. Rooms were very nice and affordable, had a terrace and the surroundings was beautiful and deeply thought out. The food was very nice and location was lovely.
Note - this beach and location is hard to get to so best to bring a bag (and not a suitcase)

Nice place. Wonderful ambience. The service was quick and staff were courteous. We ordered cold coffee, fresh lime soda and veg and chicken burgers. While the coffee and lime soda were very good the burgers were average. The patty was dry and bland. The burgers were served with fries and green salad.

This is a good restaurant near the beach side which have multiple food options and locations to sit. Also the atmosphere is good and happening.

One of the best cafes on OM beach, Gokarna.
Food, service, ambience and cleanliness is excellent. At night, the vibe is amazing just like the OM beach. A must visit one when in Gokarna.

Visited the cafe. The food is good overall. The staff is really good with their suggestions.

PS: Order the burger at your own risk. The
patty is too big. Almost the size of a plate.

We booked two same rooms but they provided different rooms, one was what we booked but other was very small and smelly. They claimed rooms 1-15 are same, but after room #3 rooms becomes smaller. However staff is ok, in the end they provided us similar rooms

We booked 2 rooms nearby via make my trip (MMT). Upon reaching there we were given 2 different varieties of rooms out of condition of 2nd room was pathetic.
Walls and bed was full of damp (moisture)
No jet near the commode
Room was smelling badly
Washroom was untidy

Then we went to reception to check why both rooms are different and complained about the conditions in 2nd room and requested to allocate room same as 1st one since both were booked together and we paid same price.
The owner was very short tempered and started shouting on us and was not ready to accept his mistake.

Summary: Short Tempered owner + Pathetic rooms

We went without booking but in that line it's quite clean and neat compare to other near by cafe's.

They allow only 2 people/Room @any cost.

Grass Roof, mangalore tile roof, Steel sheet roof, concrete roof cottages available.
Room rent varies from Rs800/cottage to Rs1500/cottage for Indians.

16 one-week-stays in 16 years - year on year! There is something about the place that is indescribable

This place is located on the eastern end of Om beach. The place has nice ambience. The cafe is sea facing and you get really good view. The place is clean and well maintained. I had breakfast there and it was really good. Staff is friendly. Highly recommended.

Situated at the opposite end of the OM beach, but is an absolutely delightful place. Visited Nirvana Cafe when the weather was slightly off but still managed to get a glimpse of the beautiful pink skies! The place is well maintained, very clean and hygienic. The chef prepped us some super delectable food and presented it really well. Everybody dug into the scrumptious meal. Reasonably priced, good portions served. The Calamari fry is a MUST try. The staff was really polite and served us well for over 6 hours that we spent here. Would definitely visit again!

Good place and nice ambience, the service and people are very friendly. A good place to spend a day at the beach and very affordable.

This beach is situated on the other end of Om beach. You may have to walk a bit to get here. But it's an amazing place. Very well maintained and well lit facing the serene beach. Friendly staff and amazing food at a very reasonable price. The food is yummy and presented really well.

The food is cheap and okay. Owner allowed us to play music on system using bluetooth. You can get beers, chill for good time at Om beach.the place provide services for dormitories as well. The restaurant is exactly opposite to the beach. View is wonderful. We spent good time.

Oh one peaceful place. Must visit. Do stay here and have a private beach to yourself and a serene place.

The owner did'nt provide the room even when it was available. I found them racist cause they provide rooms to foreigners only. For a moment one can understand that for good business maybe but don't go to this place if your colour is not white.

Located at the end of Om beach, Nirvana cafe delivers a tranquil experience as it's name suggests. The cafe is packed with tourists from around the globe. The staff nice and service is moderate. Don't forget to get a seat overlooking the ocean. Washroom is available.

What to try:
Nirvana Special Breakfast
Pancakes

My MUST VISIT PLACE for good food and cool place. It serves some delicious food and has a good ambience

Why book it? Great view, cleaner compared to other place, nice rooms, good food for a reasonable price. This place could easily be 5 star only if: the personell would be more kind (they are business oriented and never smile), and if they would be more service oriented. Important to know is they have NO INTERNET DURING THE NIGHT!

Restaurant has a very nice setting, good food in big portions and very attentive staff!
Rooms are basic (small, no hot water) and in our room we had a lot of ants. Veranda is nice though! Besides that, there seemed to be only Israelian people that grouped together and stayed up till late (tip: earplugs). Because of the restaurant, I give 4 stars.

A very friendly and local Cafe that also has rooms for rent, right on the beach at the almost end of the amazing and quiet om Beach. Hot water with bucket, laundry service and travel agent available as well as money exchange.

Good location and food. I tried couple of dishes here.everything was good. Fruit paratha a new dish I tried here and liked it.

Delicious food at very affordable price. Good ambeince with a peaceful beach view. This is the must try cafe in Gokarna.

Never order mixed noddel and if looking for dessert don't go for the hello to the queen it will blow your mind and keep annoying the waiter for the food or else they forget about you

5 stars for ambience and food. Secluded and full of foreigners. Food is good and affordable. An almost perfect beach Shack.

This is situated almost at the end of Om Beach. This is a really good cafe. We had breakfast here and everything they served was really good. The mixed fruit juice was thick and tasty. Naturally sweet with no added sugar. There sandwich meals were good. Consisted of sandwiches, fries, fruits, jam etc. I ordered the Hummus pita and their hummus was one of the best I had. It was tangy so that felt great.

Great cafe to have food over beach. The service was fast and food was good in comparison to the beach. The cafe has great view towards the sea and it is very enjoyable to have food over here
