Eating Out

Food in Kedarnath is simple, vegetarian, and tied to the pilgrimage. The town is too high and too remote for restaurants in any conventional sense; what exists is a strip of small dhabas along the path to the temple serving rice, dal, roti, rajma, and the standard north-Indian vegetarian thali.

Most pilgrims eat at the langar (free community kitchen) attached to the temple or at one of the ashrams. The food is plain but plentiful. Tea stalls along the trail up from Gaurikund sell hot tea, biscuits, parathas, and the local sweet, sevai. Alcohol and meat are not available in Kedarnath.
