Indian & Mediterranean Restaurant - Downtown New Braunfels 


Picture
My mom and I are excited to introduce the Indian and Mediterranean inspired 7 Monk’s Cafe.

Our Café is inspired by the culinary experiences from our stays and travels in Asia, Europe, Mediterranean Coast and the US! Our Indian menu is driven from our roots - growing up in India amongst the flavors and aromas of spices, bazaars and cuisines. Our recipes are from my grandma’s and mom’s kitchen- it’s the food we serve in our homes!

Our Mediterranean menu flows from our travel to Spain- where we fell in love with espresso & feature a full espresso bar in our café. We serve authentic Indian chai, lassis, & plenty of vegetarian, vegan & gluten free options!

Adults & kids alike can’t keep their hands off our signature fries- they hit the oil only after they have been ordered so they are never soggy or simply sitting out. Order them plain for the kids- looking for an Indian twist?- try our masala fries! For a truly decadent meal, our Greek fries are a must!
